What was the program?

The Jeonbuk Provincial Police Agency said on October 18 that it had run a free driver's license class for foreign residents in Gunsan, Namwon, and Gimje. The class was aimed at members of multicultural families who want to get a Korean driver's license.

How did the class work?

According to the police, they held a preliminary demand survey in April before launching the course. Students received written-test study materials at no cost. Over the following three months, instructors covered theory education, traffic laws, and the step-by-step testing process.

How many students passed?

Of the 28 students who took part, 19 passed the written driving test.

What did the police chief say?

Jeonbuk Provincial Police Chief Shin Hyo-seop said the class was designed to help multicultural families settle stably in an unfamiliar country. He added that the agency plans to keep offering traffic administration services that residents can feel in daily life.
