The Specialized Program Team of the Immigration and Foreign Residents Policy Division, Seoul Metropolitan Government, is conducting a survey on improving TOPIK testing conditions for foreign residents. Currently, the number of registration opportunities is insufficient to meet the demand for the TOPIK exam. As a result, many applicants are unable to take the exam when needed or must travel to other cities and provinces, such as Goesan and Jeonju, to sit for it. This survey aims to identify the current situation and use the findings as reference data for an official request to the National Institute for International Education to expand TOPIK testing opportunities.
