5/2 History Walk w/ local Korean friends (ENG)

Labor Day is coming up! Join us for a unique experience through central Seoul, as we explore the untold history of workers that have built up this bustling city. You'll be able to learn about important sites of resistance where workers have struggled for their rights.

We are learning English through a course in Pastelling English, and this tour is part of our final class project. We are not professional guides, but we’d love to show you around as your local Korean friends!
