Korean Language Scholarships

South Korean flag
Korean language scholarships take the form of immersion programs in which students can take advantage of the opportunity to enter Korea and learn the language. Sometimes, these Korean language scholarships award students with financial aid to fuel their studies in a particular course in Korean. Many of these scholarships and awards are available to qualifying students who, most times, have developed their knowledge of Korean over a period of time. Governments, Korean organizations and Korean schools that sponsor exchange programs are some good channels through which you can explore and find these scholarships in 2010.

किमची कोरिया का मुख्य नहीं बल्कि सह- भोजन(साइड डिश) है ।

<पारम्परिक कोरियाई भोजन का आनंद लेते कुछ वरिष्ठ साथी> भोजन मानव संस्कृति का सबसे महत्वपूर्ण हिस्सा है। कोरियाई संस्कृति भी इस कथन का पूरक है। कोरिया का खाना यहाँ की सांस्कृतिक पहचान का एक ऐसा हिस्सा जो भारत और पश्चिमी निवासियों के आहार और प्रचार से काफी अलग है । कोरिया के भोजन विशेषकर अनाज ( खासकर चावल ) , मांस , और कुछ सब्ज़ियों पर जोर देता है । हालांकि अमेरिका , पूंजीवाद , पश्चिम का प्रभाव और औद्योगीकरण जैसे तत्वों के मेल के साथ यहाँ के लोगों ने पिज्जा , हैमबर्गर और बीयर को भी अपनाया है । इसके अलावा जापानी सुशी और चीन के कुछ भोजन तथा दक्षिण पूर्वी एशिया और भारत के व्यंजनों की लोकप्रियता भी प्रमुख है। कोरियाई भोजन में साधारणतः चावल , सूप या स्टू , और कई साइड व्यंजन रहते है और लगभग सभी खानों में साइड व्यंजन के रूप में किमची या मसालेदार सब्जियां रहती है । राष्ट्रीय आहार में किमची का सबसे ज्यादा ...

Korea takes a step towards reverse discrimination and a proactive immigration policy

In a misguided attempt to help multiethnic families and their children and to bolster falling birthrates, the Korean government took another small but important step towards reverse ethnic discrimination both as a means to aid multiethnic children as well as encourage more multiethnic unions. According to reports, all "multicultural" children regardless of income will enjoy free daycare services from the government starting next year, the government announced Thursday. About 28,000 multicultural children are expected to benefit. Children between birth and age five will be eligible and under the program, parents will receive a state subsidy to enroll their multicultural child in daycare centers. Currently, only parents who earn less than 2.58 million won are eligible. Korea Times welcomes reverse discrimination While we personally find any form of legalized racial discrimination appalling, the Korea Times newspaper appeared to cheer the decision in an editorial that in...
