Government to Establish 'Kkumdeohagi Library' in Hanoi, Vietnam

Customized Reading and Cultural Spaces by Age Group and Korean Cultural Resource Room Established

The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism announced on the 24th that it opened the first 'Dream Plus Library' at the Hanoi City Library in Vietnam on the 27th of last month. This is an extension of the 'Thank You Small Library' project, which was established in 132 elementary, middle, and high schools in developing countries from 2007 to 2019. The target and scale have been expanded to support the prosperous lives of the citizens of beneficiary countries.

The Dream Plus Library at the Hanoi City Library, the starting point, was created after two months of remodeling work. It features age-specific reading and cultural spaces and a Korean Culture Resource Room where visitors can experience Korean culture. It is equipped with translated Korean literature, new Vietnamese books, Korean cultural content, and multimedia equipment.

Pham Quoc Hung, Director of the Library Management Bureau at the Vietnamese Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, said, "1.82 million children in Hanoi can now dream of a bright future at the Dream Plus Library," adding, "Thanks to the long-standing friendship between Korea and Vietnam, we were able to carry out this excellent project."
