Seoul (VNA) – The Ministry of Gender Equality and Family of the Republic of Korea (RoK) has announced that it is organising a summer camp from August 12-14 for children from Korean-Vietnamese multicultural families, who are living in Vietnam.
This programme, the first of its kind, is designed to provide an opportunity for children affected by divorce or bereavement to return to the RoK.
Vice Minister Shin Young-sook expressed her hope that participating children can experience Korean culture and shape their future career paths. She added that the ministry also aims to support these children in developing into future talents who will become bridges for the RoK-Vietnam relations.
The programme gathers 10 children, of whom seven hold Korean citizenship and three have dual nationality.
During their stay in the RoK, they are scheduled to visit cultural heritage sites, museums, and universities; and have a chance to experience traditional games at the Korean Folk Village in Gyeonggi province and tour Gyeongbok Palace.
Additionally, they will be arranged to visit job centres to help them shape their future career aspirations./.
