Do you want to change your life?
Then now is the time to take a GAPYEAR!
Korea GapYear KGY is a social enterprise that ever in Korean History first introduced
the gap-year culture to South Korea. It created the first Korean definition of a gap year and
has been working to establish and popularize this concept domestically ever since then.
Additionally, we hold multiple trademarks related to gap years to ensure that the culture of taking a gap year is correctly established in Korea.
Currently, we have approximately over 2,000 participants each year who wish to take their own 'gap year' through Korea GapYear KGY. Providing more young people with the opportunity to experience a gap year, we aim to offer various projects around the world.
