These cultural exchange activities are built on conversation rather than instruction. Foreign presenters bring maps, photos, music, traditional clothing, and personal memories, while students bring curiosity and openness.

I came to participate in a cultural event, but I left with something richer: a deeper appreciation for Korea’s sharing culture, its history of collective strength, and the gentle but persistent way people show care for one another. It was moving to realize that, in a single afternoon, I was touching a tradition that links generations, a tradition built on giving, resilience, and the belief that community is something we make with our own hands.
