Some 80 foreigners living in South Korea will act as online reporters to promote the country's culture, as part of a government program aimed at supporting multinational families, a Seoul foundation said Wednesday.

The foreign residents, including foreign women who are married to South Korean men and foreign students, will have a ceremony Saturday to mark the completion of the five-month-long program, Multi Culture Network Hope Kids Ltd. said in a press release.

The program was arranged by the Ministry of Gender Equality and Family and run by the foundation to help foreign spouses of Koreans and other foreigners coming to the country to study, the group said.

They have received education on how to write posts online, take photographs, and edit video files since May, according to the group.

They will visit local tourist sites in Seoul and post photos and posts on Facebook pages and various blogs, it said. (Yonhap)
