[THE INVESTOR] Korea will try to attract Chinese universities to establish branches in Incheon and other areas, the Ministry of Strategy and Finance revealed.

The measure was included in the economic policies announced on June 28. In addition, the government will increase the number of Korean language exams held in China each year, and roll out other means to lower the barrier for Chinese students coming to Korean universities. At present, Korean language examinations are held twice a year in China, and the number will be increased to three. 


In addition, the government will announce the plans for expanding university-corporation link up program in July, and those for offering more vocational training to second year high school students in the following month.
