The International Korean Language Championship, held by the Korea Institute For Education & Evaluation Advancement, is a tournament held twice a year in the second half of 2024 with the same qualifying and final matches as the first half of 2024, and separately planning to hold the preliminary and final matches in the second half of the year as well as the first half.

Participants who participate in the competition can select what they wish to receive as a privilege when they receive the award while working or entering school (higher education) when applying for participation, and they will participate in the competition divided into youth and young adults categories by age group. The preliminaries have a common theme of 'Introducing the country or city you live in', and in the case of the finals, you can participate in the competition by choosing one of the four topics given: 'Korean language', 'Korean culture', 'Strengths and weaknesses of Korea', and 'Korea and my dreams'.

Through this, 10 winners from each youth and young adults will be selected from each category and field of participation in the final round, and the winners will be provided with an exceptional award privilege of working or entering Korea (going on to higher education), as well as an opportunity to participate in the national team competition to be held in the second half of the year.

CEO Seong Dae-geun said, "Starting with the 2024 International Korean Language Competition, we will continue to hold the competition in the future to discover excellent talents from each country and bring them to Korea to promote exchange and development between the two countries. Although Korea has been designated as a multicultural and multiracial country this year, there is still no proper policy or support, and as always, I think it is one of the roles of leading educators to face and accept various issues and situations that are changing rapidly, and to overcome and solve them. I believe that by sending these friends to Korea from the local area, we can contribute to the development of the two countries in a small way and at the same time spread their good influence globally. I want to help all the youth and young adults around the world as much as I can so that they don't give up hope.

On the other hand, the 2024 International Korean Language Competition will be held in 2024. 02. From 26 to 03. Preliminary applications will be accepted for one month until 25th, 2024. 04. 01 After the announcement of the preliminary results, the main tournament will be held in each country in April and May.
