HANGEUL DAY ONLINE EVENT 2021

To celebrate Hangeul Day (9th October) the Korean Cultural Centre is organising an online event for anyone residing in Australia to participate in order to commemorate the occasion. This year especially celebrates the 60th year of diplomatic relations between Korea and Australia (한호수교 60주년) which basically means the two nations became friends (친구 ‘chingu’) 60 years ago.
