Tips and Advice on Thailand from Your Fellow South Korean Expats

Obviously, expat life in Thailand goes well beyond shipping your belongings and taking care of red tape. Socializing with fellow Koreans is an important facet of living abroad and can be a huge stepping stone in getting to know the Thai mentality and way of life. Koreans in Thailand are a part of our community, calling cities such as Chiang Mai, Pattaya, Bangkok, and many others home. You can use InterNations to look for fellow Koreans in Bangkok, for example.

Wondering where to shop for South Korean delicatessen, want to discuss your national team's latest match, or simply talk to someone in your native language? Become a member of the Thai InterNations Community!

  • Our network is the best place to meet expats from South Korea.
  • On the Thailand Expat Forums, you can get competent answers to all your expat-related questions: how to find a babysitter fluent in your mother tongue, where to get kimchi in Bangkok, etc.
  • The InterNations Places database for Thailand has information on the nearest South Korean embassy and many other institutions.

From the countless islands in the Andaman Sea and the Gulf of Thailand to the bustling, frenetic capital, you can meet supportive and friendly South Korean expats in Thailand on InterNations.
