South Korea Expat Community for Expatriates in South Korea

The Expat South Korea Chapter welcomes you!

Hwangyong-hamnida and a heart-felt welcome to the InterNations community for expats in South Korea! Our international network caters to your specific needs and supports you in relocating to and putting down roots in South Korea. Living abroad in a foreign country is definitely a great intercultural experience, but typically brings up a lot of questions for expatriates South Korea: ʺWhat is the best international school for my kids in South Korea?ʺ, ʺHow do I find a job for my spouse in Busan?ʺ or ʺWhere in Seoul can I meet fellow expats and compatriots from my home country?” Just to name a few examples…

InterNations aim is to help you, as an expatriate, in becoming part of the South Korea expat community and exploring the South Korean way of life in all its aspects: From enjoying the traditional kimchi to celebrating Gujeong, the first Day of the Lunar New Year.

Next to South Korea we host several more communities in Asia & Oceania, e.g., our network of Expatriates Bahrain. Or you might be interested in our Expatriates in China community which is also fairly active.

Enjoy the South Korea Expats Living

With attractions ranging from the natural wonderland of Gangwon to Korea's honeymoon island of Jeju, South Korea fascinates expatriates and globetrotters of many nationalities every year. The sizable expat South Korea community is, however, mostly drawn to the country by the urban growth of Seoul and its political as well as economic opportunities, e.g. in the high-tech sector. Whether you move to and live in South Korea for professional or private reasons, you’ll surely take with you lifelong memories of great international experiences and intercultural exchange.
