About Korea Study Guide

A personal guide to studying in Korea

Riemer Kramer and Nara Jang, founders of Korea Study Guide in Busan

Korea Study Guide is a Dutch-Korean initiative based in Busan, founded by Riemer Kramer and Nara Jang. We combine international education experience, student guidance and practical local knowledge.
We’re here to guide international students and their parents through the exciting world of studying in Korea! We’ll help you explore different study paths, compare what’s possible, and get ready for all the fun that comes with student life before you even arrive. We’re more than just recruiters; education is a big part of what we do. As cross-border education consultants, we also collaborate with schools and understand both the student’s and the school’s perspectives. We’re here to answer any questions you might have and help schools, colleges, and universities clarify their expectations. Our main goal is to make studying in Korea clearer, easier to plan for, and less daunting for everyone involved.

Why we started Korea Study Guide

Studying in Korea can be exciting, but the first steps are often confusing. Information is spread across university websites, agencies, social media, blogs and personal stories.
Korea Study Guide brings the first orientation together in a clearer and more personal way.
Our goal is not to push students into one route, university or city, but to help them understand their options and make better choices.

What makes us different

Based in Korea
We are not advising from a distance. Korea Study Guide is based in Busan and builds information from local experience.
Education first.
We look at study routes, student fit, admission realities and preparation — not only promotion or rankings.
Practical guidance
We focus on real questions about language level, documents, city choice, housing, daily life and arrival.

Our focus

We focus on practical questions students and parents often face before choosing a study route.
