Location: Lexis Korea, Busan, is located in the Seomyeon neighbourhood of the city. This is a built up area, with a modern trendy Korean feel. There are plenty of boutiques and cafes close to the school, and the area has lively nightlife.

Local attractions: The Haeundae Beach and the Gwangalli Beach are popular attractions for visitors to Busan. Both these beaches are reachable from the Jeonpo Metro station, which is a short walk from the school. The Gamcheon Culture Village, Jagalchi Market and Diamond Tower (Busan Tower) are clustered together in the south of the city. Bus services run from the school to these attractions regularly, and take around 45 minutes to reach.

Public transportation: The school is in a transportation hub within Busan. A short walk from the school entrance is the Seomyeon metro station and the Jeonpo metro station. There are ample bus services around the school, which stretch across Busan.

Course structure: The school offers a variety of courses for students to learn the Korean language. There are TOPIK exam preparation courses, full-time or part-time general Korean group lessons, private packages and virtual classes. Korean is taught to teens during the summer months, and includes a social programme. The school also has an IELTS exam preparation course for those wanting to learn English.

School Chain: Lexis Korea consists of two schools in Korea, one in the capital city of Seoul and the other in the southern city of Busan. The school has a reputation for teaching high level Korean language courses to foreign students.
