In exchange with the world. For diversity, understanding and trust.
The Goethe-Institut Korea promotes international cultural exchange. Our projects are created in partnership and close cooperation with cultural institutions, cultural initiatives, and artists from Korea, Germany, and worldwide. They invite an open, trusting dialog, joint artistic production, and the exchange of diverse perspectives.
We offer artists and cultural professionals various opportunities to actively participate in cultural exchange programs between Germany, Korea, and other countries. Learn more about our residency, funding programs, and current calls for applications.
