The Embassy of Israel in Korea and the Embassy of Korea in Israel have launched a joint logo design contest to create a graphic emblem capturing the dynamic spirit of the deepening engagement between the two countries and peoples. 

The year 2021 is significant because Israel and South Korea signed a free trade agreement -- Israel’s first with an Asian country and South Korea’s first in the Middle East -- showing the two countries‘ deepening ties. 

The contest was launched Friday, and submissions will be accepted until Aug. 13. Three prizes will be offered to winners. 

First place will win a round-trip flight between Israel and South Korea. Second place will receive a Samsung Galaxy tab S7. Third wins a Samsung Galaxy Tab S6 Lite. 

For more details and to participate, visit the Israeli Embassy website at embassies.gov.il/seoul.
