The British Council Korea will be holding a “UK Sports Week” commencing from 9 March for 2 weeks. 

‘Sports’ being an important part of the British culture, and numerous sports originated in the UK, makes those extensive ranges of sports related courses possible. This reflects young Korean people now having higher interests in studying sports and related subjects in the UK.
