How are foreigners treated in Korea?
Currently, foreigners in South Korea are receiving more positive recognition and various social support compared to the past. Multicultural family support centers and legal protection policies are in place to assist foreigners and multicultural families. However, foreign workers still experience some discrimination and disadvantages, such as wage theft and poor living conditions. According to a 2021 Korea Research survey, over 60% of respondents viewed working with foreigners positively, yet 30% of foreigners reported experiencing discrimination. The popularity of the Korean Wave (Hallyu) is enhancing cultural acceptance of foreigners. South Korea needs to continue strengthening its inclusion and support for foreigners.
