Chapter Seoul, “It was a good opportunity” – A course of Korean language for job in Korea

Chapter Korean’s goal

Chapter Seoul is a startup that provides ‘Chapter Korean’, a platform that provides TOPIK (Test of Proficiency in Korean) II, intermediate and advanced Korean language classes needed for employment and business online. They achieved figures such as a re-enrollment rate of 67% and a class satisfaction rating of 4.7/5 points through speaking, listening, and writing textbooks, 1:1 learning content, and data learning management. With support from GSA, they are also collaborating on Korean language education with related organizations, including Kowork. Chapter Korean’s 2023, 2024 goal is to create a curriculum of Korean language for job in Korea

Achievements achieved during the scale-up program – Producing a course of Korean language for job in Korea

CEO Daegwang Kim: We were able to improve our business plan efficiently and effectively. And we believe that we were able to make ourselves known through the article. During the scale-up program, we also created a new website, and the advice we received from meeting Class 101 helped us. Oh, we were contacted through the article and we also carried out two B2B contracts. We also had a university ask if we could offer our services to international students.

Unlike other startup support programs, I liked that I was able to meet industry experts. It’s really not easy to meet the mentor we need. It must have been very difficult to recruit a mentor.

What are Chapter Korean’s future plans?

CEO Kim Dae-gwang: Based on the advice received through the scale-up program, we plan to create a Korean language education curriculum necessary for foreigners to find employment in Korea and produce and provide a Korean language curriculum necessary for linking domestic and overseas B2B education models and employment. We have established plans to grow our B2C model well in the future. Oh, there’s one thing I’d like to ask you. I just wish the scale-up program period was a little longer. I would like to show you that I have grown a little more, but I think 3 months is a little short (laughter). I hope to be able to participate a little longer next time.
