About us

Dear Ladies and Gentlemen,

It is a matter of exceptional professional privilege and a profound personal pleasure to be able to welcome you at the webpage of the Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria to the Republic of Korea. Our portal is designed to provide useful information about the mission as well as insight into our shared aspirations to further propel the relations between the two countries in practically all areas of shared interest.

Ever since diplomatic relations were established between the Republic of Bulgaria and the Republic of Korea in 1990, the ties between the two countries have sustained a perpetual trend of enhancement through exchange of visits across the vast spectrum of government, public, and private sectors; trade, economy, and investments; energy; culture and education; innovation and technology; environment and sustainable development; sport; tourism etc. 

At present, we are witnessing the emergence of valuable opportunities and favourable conditions for even closer cooperation between the Republic of Bulgaria and the Republic of Korea – in Bulgaria there is a genuine surge of interest in Korean language, history, and culture. Bulgaria’s vibrant culture and magnificence are perceived with similar enthusiasm in the Republic of Korea. In addition to the existing intergovernmental opportunities for exchange, the plethora of possibilities to cooperate expands with every passing year thus asserting both countries as alluring destinations to acquire new knowledge, experiences, perceptions, perspectives, and – crucially – new friendships as well. 

There is a convergence of factors, whose cumulative effect enables us to harness the critical mass of never before seen opportunities for cooperation between the people of the Republic of Bulgaria and the Republic of Korea. This is a process, which surpasses the Embassy domain, transpires far beyond and encompasses us all – the supporters and benefactors of the comprehensive partnership and friendship between the Republic of Bulgaria and the Republic of Korea. 

On behalf of the Embassy of the Republic of Bulgaria in Seoul – as well as on my own behalf – I would like to thank you for your interest and support. We stand ready to advance the pursuit of fulfilling the existing potential while exploring new horizons for fruitful cooperation between Republic of Bulgaria and the Republic of Korea.

 

Respectfully,

Petar Kraytchev

Ambassador-Designate of the Republic of Bulgaria to the Republic of Korea
