Curious about South Korea but not ready for a semester abroad? The ASSE Summer Immersion Program in South Korea offers the perfect opportunity to live like a local and explore one of Asia’s most fascinating cultures during a few unforgettable weeks.

As a summer exchange student, you’ll stay with a welcoming Korean host family and join in their daily life—enjoying homemade meals, visiting local markets, and participating in weekend outings. You’ll experience the unique balance of traditional customs and modern lifestyles that define Korean culture. Instead of attending school, your summer days might include visiting local temples, exploring colorful neighborhoods, relaxing in public parks, or learning Korean naturally through real-life conversations.

This program is ideal for teens starting to explore Korean culture and language or looking for a meaningful summer experience. You’ll return home with new friendships, unforgettable memories, and a broader worldview—all in just a few weeks.
