To introduce Indonesian culture to South Korean people, the Indonesian Embassy in Seoul held again offline Gamelan class on Tuesday (23/3).  Previously, the Gamelan class has been stopped due to the Covid-19 pandemic that hit the world, including South Korea.  This activity was held again because of the good situation, but the embassy kept carrying out strict health protocols. Since 2018, the Indonesian Embassy in Seoul has collaborated with the Seoul Institute of the Arts to make Gamelan one of the foreign ethnic music taught to university students.
