Participants will also enjoy various side events like ‘Study in KoreaTalk concert’ where Sri Lankan graduates from Korean universities will narrate their real life experiences. ‘Taste of Korean Street Food’ booth will provide popular Korean street food prepared by a Korean chef as well as various kinds of Korean snacks.
Korea and Sri Lanka share years of cooperation in many sectors, and education has become one of the most prominent areas on which the two countries have collaborated.
Renewing this bilateral relationship, the Korean Government believes this education fair will reward the students with a novel experience and make another chapter of educational cooperation between Korea and Sri Lanka.
