The '2021 Online Sejong Culture Academy Basic Lecture' is composed of a total of eight fields, including K-Pop lyrics, K-Pop dance,
K-beauty, calligraphy, Samulnori, Taekwondo, Hanbok, and Korean paper crafts. It was created as a basic/in-depth course so that

learners, subtitles in five languages (Korean, English, Chinese, Vietnamese, Russian) and auxiliary textbooks are also provided to
facilitate learning.
This course can be used at any time by simply registering for a course in the 'King Sejong Institute e-Class' and 'Cyber Korean Culture
