This room is being made available to us through the Institute for Hallyu Culture of Inje Graduate University. We are very grateful.
Those coming by subway should exit from Eulchiro 3ga (2호선) station by exit 12 and take the street going south (toward Namsan) between exits 11 and 12. Keep heading south at the traffic-light intersection, the tall building (Indang-gwan) is on the right-hand side of the street, immediately after the entrance to the car-park of Yeongnak Church. Please note: this is not the same building as the main Baek Hospital which is closer to Myeong-dong. The name “Inje University” is visible at the top of the building.
Anyone you know who is engaged in Korean Studies and wishes to be added to the mailing list for the Colloquium should write to Brother Anthony at [email protected]
