‘FLY (Friends Love You) Project’ is a program that provides foreign students of SNU with opportunities to share their languages and cultures with the local community members around the campus. Participants are going to teach their own languages and cultures to the elementary school students after school. The participants will receive a certain amount of payment for the classes, but part of the payment will be used for supporting other foreign students who have economic difficulties and for funding exchange activities for Korean & Foreign students. Anyone who is strongly interested in sharing their culture, volunteer work, and giving a contribution to the local community is welcome to join us!

Bongcheon Elementary School, 15 minutes from SNU by bus
