Student reporters of Chinese universities visited Korea under the invitation of Korea Foundation for International Culture Exchange (KOFICE) from August 9 to 17. The 30 students selected from top Chinese universities, including Peking University, Tsinghua University and Fudan University, experienced Korean culture and deepen their understanding of Korea during their visit.
One of the events they will attend is a debate session with Chinese literature students of Ewha Womans University on the roles of youth for furthering Korea-China amity. The session included presentations on the problems of Korea-China cultural conflict and their solutions and the roles of future opinion leaders in improving Korea-China amity. The seminar was expected to provide an opportunity for the university students to gain the knowledge for improving cultural exchange between two countries. The Chinese students also attended Incheon Korean Wave Festival, make Korean traditional food and engage in other activities that can broaden their experiences of Korean culture.
