Make Korean Friends Over Free Chicken at a Han River Sunset
STAYKOREA × METEOR SEOUL SOCIAL EVENT
Make Korean Friends Over Free Chicken at a Han River Sunset
Join StayKorea × Meteor at Mangwon Hangang Park on October 3, 2026 for Korean fried chicken, sunset views, light games, and a relaxed chance to meet Korean university students.
Sometimes the easiest way to make Korean friends is not a formal language exchange. It is sharing food, watching the sunset, and having a simple reason to say hello.
A simple way to meet Korean friends in Seoul
If you are studying or living in Korea, you may want to make Korean friends but feel unsure how to start. You do not need fluent Korean, a large social circle, or a perfect introduction. A shared meal and a few easy games can make the first conversation feel much more natural.
StayKorea is bringing international students and young foreigners together with Meteor, a Korean university student club, for a casual evening beside the Han River. Come alone or bring a friend—the event is designed to help people connect quickly and comfortably.
No awkward networking. Just sunset, chicken, and real conversations.
Talk about your university, favorite Korean food, life in Seoul, travel plans, music, or anything else that comes up naturally.
