Korea International Students’ Support Association is holding a competition to find the top cultural spots that are off the beaten track.

The “Hidden Secret Korea” competition is open to international students in Korea, and requires a 300-word description and short video introducing an interesting cultural or historical spot in Korea that deserves more attention.

There will be cash prizes of 1 million won, 500,000 won and 300,000 won for the top three entries, which will be judged based on uniqueness, creativity and quality.

KISSA plans to organize tours to the top three spots after the competition.

Applications can be individual or group efforts but must be in English, and should be sent to welcomekissa@gmail.com by May 31.
