Korea University, one of the country's leading universities, is building a globally oriented campus to cultivate global talent.

Kim Dong-one, president of the university, is spearheading efforts to revamp academic systems and create a better environment for international faculty and students.

Since taking office in March 2023, he has been leading the university’s internationalization task force.

He plans to increase the number of full-time international faculty members from the current 83 to 146 by 2030, raising their share to 10 percent of the total faculty.
