"The photo was taken on Jeju Island in South Korea. As an exchange student at KAIST in 2022, I was lucky enough to experience this breathtaking scenery. My interest in Korean language and culture started from listening to Korean music. I am grateful that this interest became big enough to motivate me to learn Korean and step out of my comfort zone by spending a semester abroad. My time in South Korea allowed me to make many new friends, taste authentic Korean food and make many unforgettable memories."
Korean
환영합니다!
Korean is spoken by about 80 million people worldwide. The unique Korean writing system, Hangul, consists of 24 letters. Hangul was developed on the order of King Sejong in 1443, and it is easily learned because of its logical and clear syllable structure. In 1997 Hangul was recognized by UNESCO as a "Memory of the World."

TUMtandem registration winter semester
We offer Korean courses from level A1.1 to B1.2 following the CEFR.
Not every course may be offered every semester.
Intensive courses (course levels may vary) take place during the semester break in spring and fall.
The intensive courses take place over a shorter period of time, but have more training units per week than the courses during the semester. The number of ECTS and the workload is therefore the same as for the semester-long courses.
Current dates and registration deadlines can be found on our homepage.
You can find a complete overview of our course program in TUMonline.
Would you like to make contact with other TUM students or employees and at the same time improve your language skills in a flexible and practical way? At TUMtandem we will find a tandem partner for you within TUM and support your joint learning process. More information on TUMtandem
