Since 2013, KSIF has been conducting the “KSI Culture Intern Dispatch Project,” which recruits and selects university (graduate) students in Korea as KSI Culture Interns and dispatches them to overseas KSI locations. Any undergraduate or graduate student majoring in Korean culture or arts or with equivalent experience can apply to be a Culture Intern. If you are selected as a Culture Intern, you will open and operate a course related to Korean culture and arts as a future expert during a dispatch period of approximately 100 days in an overseas KSI location, and perform assistive work for cultural events at KSI.

To ensure that Culture Interns can work in a stable environment, KSIF supports credit recognition for students participating as Culture Interns through agreements with Korean universities (and graduate schools), and provides various kinds of support for departure and stay (round-trip airline tickets, travel insurance, visa, etc.), expenses for activities and stay, and cultural teaching tools. Next year, in particular, in order to discover more talents, about 70 Culture Interns, which is 1.5 times the number recruited this year, will be selected and dispatched, expanding support for students majoring in Korean culture to experience working overseas, and for students overseas to receive quality lessons.
