Big Hit Edu, Korea Foundation, and Hankuk University of Foreign Studies will hold a business agreement signing ceremony at the Korea Foundation Global Center in Suha-dong, Jung-gu, Seoul from July 8.12 to promote overseas Korean language learning.

The three main agents of the agreement will work together based on their respective expertise to meet the growing demand for Korean language education abroad while also promoting understanding of Korean and Korean.

As a result, KF e-School Korean language courses using "Learn! KOREAN with BTS" will be opened at leading universities abroad starting this fall semester.

Learn! KOREAN with BTS is a Korean language education content produced by Big Hit Edu. It is designed to help global fans who are having difficulty enjoying K-pop music and content due to language barriers learn Korean easily and interestingly.

Universities that start Korean language education on BTS from this fall semester will have regular Korean language courses using "Learn! KOREAN with BTS" at Middlebury University in the U.S., Paris High School and Edec Business School in France, Ain Shams University in Egypt, Hanoi National University of Foreign Studies and Tanglong University in Vietnam. By reconstructing the contents of global superstar BTS, we will help you learn basic Korean, basic Korean expressions, and Korean culture naturally by listening to and following the expressions used frequently by the members.

"Learn! KOREAN with BTS," which was developed and supervised by a research team of professors at Hankuk University of Foreign Studies, will be released as a book package on the 24th. Since March, Big Hit Edu has released a three-minute training video of the same name once a week on Weverse, a global fan community platform.
