Kingdom is pleased to be the host to the 2005 Biennial Conference of the
Association for Korean Studies in Europe. Because it is not possible to use the
University's facilities during the academic session, the Conference will be held
this time from Monday 4 July to Friday 8 July, 2005. Otherwise, the pattern of
this conference will be similar to our previous meetings.</span></font></div>

residence of one of Sheffield's steel magnates. It is set in spacious wooded
grounds in proximity to other halls and is located within walking distance of
the recently refurbished Botanical Gardens and the Broomhill section of town
with its pubs and restaurants, and to bus lines to the city centre (10 minutes to
the centre). </span></font></div>

from room accommodation, a large dining hall, seminar rooms, meeting rooms
and a library, Halifax Hall also has its own pub. Room accommodation is all
single occupancy of two types - rooms with en-suite shower facilities, and
