The Korea Times is hosting its third Korean Language Speaking Contest, offering participants a chance to showcase their Korean language skills and compete for prizes worth a total of 12 million won (US$8,150).
The contest, which runs until May 7, drew about 1,800 applicants last year, reflecting growing global interest in Korean language and culture, according to The Korea Times.
This year, one award recipient currently enrolled in a Korean university or graduate school will be offered a summer internship with The Korea Times’ video production team.
