Social Enterprise Internship in Jeonju
Program Overview
This internship project takes place in Jeonju, a city where traditional Korean culture and modern local life come together.
As an intern at a social enterprise, you will gain hands-on experience by joining projects that match your interests and strengths, including educational programs, exhibitions, content creation, performing arts, and community initiatives. You will work alongside local residents and professionals, gaining practical skills, professional mentoring, and a deeper understanding of how social enterprises contribute to local communities. By participating in real projects, you can discover what type of work suits you while building confidence, valuable career experience, and a stronger resume.
Jeonju offers a unique opportunity to experience authentic Korean culture and everyday life. You can explore Hanok Village, traditional food, shops, and lively modern neighborhoods while enjoying a more relaxed, affordable lifestyle than in Seoul.
A free Korean language program is also provided alongside the internship. Starting with the basics, you can practice Korean in real-life situations and use it during your internship and daily activities.
