Engage in meaningful volunteer work and earn visa bonus points! ✨

Volunteering naturally improves your Korean, and you can earn extra points for changing qualifications to an F-2 visa!

✅ Why volunteer in Korea?

Volunteering not only does good but offers practical benefits to international students.

• Natural Korean language improvement

  • Learn real Korean not found in books by conversing and cooperating with locals!

• Contribute to a warm and positive community

  • Engage with diverse people to connect deeper with Korean society.

  • Meet various people and make Korean friends through volunteer activities.

Lastly, there's one more big benefit for foreigners! 👍

Earn 'bonus points' for F-2 visa extension or change.

Officially documented volunteer experience is a positive factor in visa assessments.
