Language Textbooks
KONG & PARK is a leader in publishing Korean textbooks as a foreign language. The company publishes “Sejong Korean Conversation Series” of the King Sejong Institute Foundation, a public organization established to manage overseas Korean language education and the distribution of Korean culture, and distributes it to more than 180 Sejong Institutes around the world. We also published the “Anytime Korean Series,” a Korean language textbook for US universities, and localized it to meet the demand. The online conversation practice solution (PIP Lang), developed in cooperation with University of Colorado Boulder, was applied to the “Anytime Korean Series (AnytimeKorean.com).”

The Chinese character textbook, which KONG & PARK developed its own contents, is the representative book of us. KONG & PARK has registered a patent for Chinese learning materials as a mechanism designed to repeat each part of Chinese radicals naturally. It is currently being published separately as a Chinese character textbook for Korean, Chinese, and Japanese. It has been published in Korean, English, Spanish, and German to meet readers in more than 30 countries. English Publication
KONG & PARK has established a stable process for publishing foreign languages based on our extensive experience since publishing English publications in 2012. We offer a complete one-stop service with a network of translators in each field, style editing for publishing, refined local design, and global distribution. Since 2017, the Journal of Korean Art and Archeology has been published in the United States. In particular, we write our own “translation manual” and provide it to translators to maintain a consistent translation of the journal, which is a serial publication. The “translation manual,” updated every time the issue is published, is KONG & PARK's promise to maintain the quality of the translation.

You can't really understand Korean history, its art, its politics, its kings, its rebellions without understanding Korean Buddhism.

"The History of Korean Buddhism" walks through all six eras, from the Three Kingdoms to today. Out now. 📚

Four days, one convention center, and more culture than we could fit into 30 seconds ✨

This year IFLA WLIC came home to Korea for the first time in 20 years, and we got to show up with our books, meet librarians from 150+ countries, and still find time to catch a K-pop performance on the big LED wall.

That's the job. We wouldn't trade it. 📖

Why are Korean flags everywhere on August 15?

August 15 is Gwangbokjeol, Korea’s Liberation Day.
Gwangbok means “restoration of light,” symbolizing the return of Korea’s freedom in 1945.

On this meaningful day, the Taegeukgi is displayed across the country in remembrance and celebration.

Did you know the meaning behind Gwangbokjeol?

We packed the books and headed to the JAKLE × 二重言語学会 International Conference at Aichi Gakuin University in Nagoya.

Two days of exploring how Korean language education continues to evolve in an increasingly multicultural world.

The conference brought together educators and researchers to exchange perspectives on teacher and learner experiences, inclusive learning environments, and sustainable growth.

Thank you to everyone who visited us, shared ideas, and became part of the conversation. We left Nagoya with fresh perspectives and connections that we hope will continue well beyond the conference.

A port city. A global language. A gathering of Korean studies.

This year’s ISKAL International Conference took place in La Rochelle, France, bringing together researchers and educators working across Korean applied linguistics, language education, translation, and multilingual learning.

In a city shaped by movement and exchange, the conversations felt especially fitting.

Korean language education today is also moving across borders: through universities, libraries, digital platforms, classrooms, and communities of learners with very different reasons for beginning.

Kong & Park was glad to be part of this gathering and to continue thinking about how our books and platforms can support Korean learning wherever it takes root.

Until next time.

AATK 2026 was a reminder that Korean language education is no longer confined to the language classroom.

This year’s theme, “Beyond Boundaries,” opened conversations around disciplines, careers, and communities, and how Korean learning continues to expand into new contexts.

For us, it was a chance to listen, connect, and think more carefully about what educators and learners need next.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by and shared a conversation with us in Columbus.

Discussions focused on today’s increasingly diverse Korean language learners, including diaspora learners, K-culture-driven learners, and students engaging with Korean through education, technology, and translation.

For Kong & Park, it was a meaningful opportunity to consider how learning materials and platforms can better support this changing landscape.
