This is the list of schools that offer Korean Language training in the Philippines. These schools are across the country and the good part is they are all Tesda accredited.
The number of Filipinos who want to learn the Korean language is increasing day after day. We can attribute this to the growing number of Filipinos who became fans of Korean drama tv-series and k-pop music. Many Filipinos also become followers of Korean actors and actresses because of their looks and acting skills.
Aside from KPop and KDrama, Filipinos also fell in love with Korean cuisine. In particular, Samgyeopsal or grilled pork belly. According to korea.net, Samgyeopsal is now the most popular Korean food in the Philippines.
To tell you honestly, I also want to learn the Korean language hahaha. This is after watching many Korean drama series. The urge to study the language increased after I was able to travel to South Korea. I visited Gangnam, Insadong, Myongdong in Seoul, and Nami Island during the winter of 2019.
During my short trip. The Koreans that I encounter fascinate me because they are helpful. They are willing to assist tourists (like me) to know the directions going to popular destinations around Seoul. I wanted to talk to them in Korean but all I can say is “Kamsahamnida” or “Thank You” hahaha. Since then, the thought of studying the Korean language has been at the back of my mind.
If your reason is the same as mine. Then you can find below the list of tesda accredited schools that offer the Korean language.
