> K-Beauty class held for high school students at Triam Udomsuksa School of the Northeast Thailand
> Amorepacific makeup artist conducts a 3-day K-Beauty lecture
The Sejong Cultural Academy, a flagship Korean culture course by the KSIF where experts personally travel abroad
to spread Korean culture, was held from June 17 to 19 at Triam Udomsuksa School of the Northeast in Sakon
Nakhon, Thailand. This K-Beauty course, initiated by a business agreement between the KSIF and the Amorepacific
Foundation in May, featured Amorepacific makeup artist Baek Chang-hoon, who delivered a systematic and
high-level K-Beauty class.

This K-Beauty course was conducted for three days, targeting around 180 students from five Korean language major
classes at Triam Udomsuksa School of the Northeast, following an application from KSI Korean Education Center in
Thailand. Students learned about the characteristics of Korean makeup from Baek Chang-hoon and then had the
opportunity to apply Korean cosmetics themselves.
The practical sessions using Korean cosmetics covered steps such as skincare, base makeup, eye makeup, lip
makeup, and blush. During the skincare stage, Thai students who were not familiar with using cotton pads were
amazed at the difference in skin texture before and after using them. In the foundation application stage, they
learned how to use a spatula, a method that had gained popularity on social media. Initially, students found the
spatula method unfamiliar and needed the teacher's help, but they gradually became adept at completing their
base makeup. During the blush application stage, many students were surprised as the teacher's instructions
differed from what they usually knew. However, following the instructions allowed them to achieve the 'natural
look' emphasized by the teacher, which many students found fascinating.

In the final class, students at Triam Udomsuksa School of the Northeast were able to correctly choose and use
foundation and blush that matched their skin tone, earning praises from the teacher for their proficiency not
only in Korean but also in makeup. The students expressed their gratitude, saying, "It was great to learn
K-Beauty style makeup. Thank you for giving us this opportunity to have such a good experience, and we hope to
have more Korean culture classes like this in the future."
Choi Eun-ji, a teacher at Triam Udomsuksa School of the Northeast, shared her thoughts, saying, "I am pleased
that the students were able to practice Korean-style makeup that they were curious about through this K-Beauty
class. Additionally, "Thai students have a lot of interest in Korean culture, especially Korean makeup. I am
grateful to the officials of the KSIF who provided this great opportunity and to makeup artist Baek Chang-hoon,
who personally visited Thailand to conduct the lecture." The KSIF and the Amorepacific Foundation plan to
continue various collaborations to promote K-Beauty.
