Korean Cultural Centers are non–profit institutions aligned with the Government of South Korea that aim to promote Korean culture and facilitate cultural exchanges.
Starting from 2009, the Korean Culture and Information Service began setting up Korean Cultural Centers around the world.
The centers are run by the Korean Culture and Information Service, a subdivision of South Korea's Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism.[1]
As part of efforts to introduce and spread interest in diverse aspects of Korean culture, the centers have organized many programs under the categories of arts, music, literature, film and cuisine.[2]
As of 2024, there are 37 Korean Cultural Centers in 30 countries.[3]
