NEW MALDEN | THE KOREA TOWN OF LONDON

2023 marks the 140th anniversary of diplomatic relations between the UK and Korea. To celebrate this occasion, the Korean Embassy held a video competition celebrating Korean and British culture where we came in third place!

In this video, we introduce #NewMalden : the #KoreaTown of London; home to the largest Korean community in Europe and the services available for British-Koreans.

We ask key community members of the Korean community, 'What makes New Malden the Korea Town of London for you?'
