intensive hanmun workshop this summer. This workshop is for graduate
students who have completed at least one year of classical Chinese
course(s) and are interested in improving their reading comprehension of
classical hanmun texts. Since classes will be conducted in Korean, students
are expected to have at least intermediate-level proficiency in Korean.
Concerning the COVID-19 related situations, this year’s workshop is for
students who are staying in Korea during the workshop period.

  The workshop will last two weeks from July 6 to July 17, 2020. It
consists of 2-hour long seminars in the afternoon from Monday to Friday
each week. The seminars mainly focus on the participants’ translation of
hanmun texts either at an elementary level or an advanced level. Therefore,

preparing the assigned translation of hanmun texts. Graduate students who
want to read hanmun texts at a more advanced level for their research may
request an interview with professors in a specific field.
