If you are a foreigner, living in South Korea, for sure it has its peculiarities and perks. 🙂 You might be allured into Korean culture by the catchy K-pop songs and romantic or action filled K-dramas and movies. Or you just simply fell in love with the tasty food, the unique traditions and history, the buzzing life in the cities and the serene landscapes of the mountains and sea side.
Well no matter what brings you here, probably you have quickly noticed that some level knowledge of the Korean language can be super useful to get around in everyday life. Yet to acquire a foreign language is a hard skill to master, let that be Korean with its own alphabet, writing system and 7 verb paradigms and speech levels.
But no better way to take on that challenge than among friends, a supportive community and an attentive native instructor. 🙂
If you are familiar with Hangul symbols and reading goes okay, but you feel you could boost your speaking skills, come and join our Korean Speaking Club sessions with Mrs Joy and other SIWA members. We will offer session 4th Wednesday in each month which you can attend as your busy life allows.
We promise to keep it simple and fun with focusing on daily topics that you can use to make your life easier in South Korea.

Level: any level
Participants will be grouped according to their level with native Korean. Aim is to have small groups with max 4-5 persons.

SIWA Coffee Morning (CoMo) – monthly morning mingle
2024-06-20 11:00 - 12:30 | Nono Shop, 90 Bogwang-ro, Seoul, Korea, Republic of
Sometimes you just need a SIWA Coffee Morning (CoMo) to shake up your morning routine.
It’s almost July, and some of you might have heard of the Plastic Free July challenge. To participate in the efforts to combat single-use plastic waste, we would like to introduce you to a great zero-waste store and vegan bakery cafe in Itaewon! The shop is also pet-friendly so you’re welcome to join with your furry friend!
If you’d like to make purchases other than what you drink or eat, pack some empty containers and a shopping bag with you! The shop sells a variety of grains, legumes, spices, dried fruits, cleaning products like laundry detergent, and even cosmetics to refill. If you have any empty jars, bottles, or containers you’re about to throw away, consider donating them to the shop so any customers who didn’t remember to bring containers can use them for shopping! The jar can be an empty strawberry jam jar, for instance, or any other used but cleaned container suitable for storing dry food or other products mentioned above.
To get to the venue, come out of Itaewon Station exit 3 and walk down the side road for about 5 minutes until you see a little sign on the road (it’s easy to miss!). The shop is on the “2.5 floor” of the building.

If you are a foreigner, living in South Korea, for sure it has its peculiarities and perks. You might be allured into Korean culture by the catchy K-pop songs and romantic or action-filled K-dramas and movies. Or you just simply fell in love with the tasty food, the unique traditions and history, the buzzing life in the cities and the serene landscapes of the mountains and seaside.
Well no matter what brings you here, probably you have quickly noticed that some level of the Korean language knowledge can be super useful to get around in everyday life. Yet to acquire a foreign language is a hard skill to master, let that be Korean with its own alphabet, writing system and 7 verb paradigms and speech levels.
But no better way to take on that challenge than among friends, a supportive community and an attentive native instructor.

If you are familiar with Hangul symbols and reading goes okay, but you feel you could boost your speaking skills, come and join our K-Speaking meetings. We offer sessions every fourth Tuesday of the month which you can attend as your busy life allows.
We promise to keep it simple and fun with focus on daily topics that you can use to make your life easier in South Korea.

Level: any level
