Teaching language

Listed as Korean-track provision. Confirm the languages used in teaching, assignments and assessment for your chosen programme; the subject name does not establish English-medium delivery.

Duration

The programme’s own admission and fee rows give a two-year, four-semester reference. Confirm the current completion requirements and your individual study plan; this is not a guaranteed completion period.

Entry requirements

Entry requires a recognised bachelor’s degree or equivalent education. The international route lists two alternatives: a foreign-national applicant with both parents holding foreign nationality, or completion of the full regular school and university education abroad. The expected-graduate wording specifies February 2026 despite the Fall 2026 title; confirm the applicable final-degree deadline. The Korean-Vietnamese interpreting and translation department specifically restricts applications to TOPIK level 4 or above. The guide’s general Korean-track TOPIK-3, KIIP and Sejong alternatives do not establish an exemption from that departmental rule; confirm any exception directly. Prepare the application, study plan, passport/ID, academic certificates and transcripts, language evidence and family documents. The Korean guide gives a two-page study-plan limit; use the current programme-specific form. Documents must follow the stated Korean/English original or notarised-translation requirements and the relevant Korean-, Chinese- or other-university authentication branch. Chinese-university records require the printed English verification report and a Chinese-notarised transcript. Upload the required files and submit originals by post or in person. The bank table prints an inconsistent amount unit; obtain the required balance and currency in writing. It normally names the applicant as account holder; a parent-held certificate requires both family-relation and tax certificates. Without a stated expiry, the certificate must be issued within 30 days of the document deadline; stated validity is accepted up to six months and must cover submission. Confirm the current full checklist and any nationality-specific medical-document requirements. Do not assume admission, a visa or professional recognition. Confirm the programme’s current credits, assessments and any thesis or dissertation requirements; those are not inferred from another degree.

Course fees

Historical Fall 2026 reference for this programme: KRW 3,700,000 per semester for four semesters, a separate KRW 500,000 entrance fee, and KRW 4,200,000 as the first-semester payment. This interpreting-and-translation fee row does not state a scholarship percentage; no discount from another programme is applied. Confirm the current itemised invoice, compulsory extras and refund terms. These figures are not a guaranteed current or full-degree price.

Intake

The Fall 2026 guide lists application periods of 27 April–13 May and 8–24 June 2026, both now past. For round one, original documents were due to arrive by 14 May at 17:00, after the online application closed. These historical dates do not establish a current opening.
