Ajou Good Friends carried out volunteering activities for middle- and high-school students in Hai Duong City, Vietnam. Hai Duong is a sister city of Suwon, and the centers for international exchanges under the two cities provided help for the University to dispatch the mission.

 
 
Seventeen students and three leaders from Ajou University, including Professor Byoung Kwan Kim (Department of Sociology), visited Nguyễn Bỉnh Khiêm High School and Cam Thuong Secondary School for 13 nights and 14 days beginning on February 7th. 
 
 
Ajou Good Friends taught local students the Korean language, fine arts, music, and Taekwondo and joined hands with them to build a flower garden and plant commemorative trees. On the last day of its stay, the Ajou people promoted Korea's traditional games and shared Korean food with Vietnamese students at the Korea-Vietnam cultural exchange festival.
 
 
In addition, Ajou Good Friends had opportunities to visit local KOICA (Korea International Cooperation Agency) project sites and experience Vietnamese culture, including temples and a pottery village. 
 
 
The ceremony to conclude the 2016 Winter Vietnam Mission is scheduled to be held at 3 p.m. on March 9th in Yulgok Hall's Video Conference Room.
