โ What's the reason behind creating this program?
Originally hosting gatherings in Sinchon, Hongdae, and Songpa,
I decided to expand to the vibrant GSM and opened up in Gangnam.
Over the years, I've met a plethora of friends
from different nationalities here and bonded closely with many Korean friends as well.
We're still having a blast!
To provide a cultural exchange platform where lonely foreigners and Koreans can interact and communicate,
decided to open up a new space through GSM!
