FOR FOREEDOM MOU PARTNER STUDENT ASSOCIATIONS · 2026
Make It Happen In Korea
Bring your association's ideas
to life in Seongsu.
Why This Program
This isn't just a free venue —
it's your chance to create something real for your own community.
Foreedom has signed MOUs with student associations from many countries, working together so international students can build more connections and experiences in Korea.
SFACTORY is a professional event venue where companies, brands, and artists pay to hold pop-up stores, performances, and exhibitions. We open this space to partner associations' programs and provide both the venue and business infrastructure.
Foreedom in the Field
Company tours, sports events, community exchanges, supporters programs, career events — Foreedom has consistently created real offline touchpoints with student associations. The SFACTORY program expands that experience onto a bigger stage.
From Vietnamese student sports events to exchange programs with associations from each country, we support events that student associations create and grow themselves, based on real community experience.
Foreedom has MOUs with student communities from 9 countries. This program was prepared for the partner associations and communities below.
The Venue
According to its official website, SFACTORY is a cultural complex of about 3,000 pyeong (≈9,900 m²) in Seongsu. We review and discuss the right space based on your event's nature and expected scale.
A cultural complex hosting pop-up stores, performances, exhibitions, festivals, and more
570 pyeong on the 1st floor, 430 pyeong on the 3rd — the largest in Seongsu. Ideal for large cultural events, performances, exhibitions, and festivals.
Great for workshops, networking, and small exhibitions or performances — programs with high engagement.

Your association leads planning, recruiting, and on-site operations. Foreedom supports the venue, sponsors, ticketing, and partner connections.
A professional venue that companies and brands pay to use — selected association programs can use it with the rental fee sponsored. This is the biggest benefit.
You don't need a finished proposal. With just an idea, Foreedom helps you shape the purpose, audience, scale, and operations together.
For programs with large participation, we pursue corporate sponsors together. Revenue-sharing with your association is agreed in advance.
For paid events, the Vijob ticketing system supports sales, payment, and settlement. Details are agreed per event in advance.
Depending on the event, we can discuss connections to Foreedom's student, university, and corporate partner network, plus joint promotion.
The goal is not a one-off event, but building a signature program your association can continue every year.
Program Ideas
The examples below are just starting points. If a program reflects your country's culture and what your students actually want, you can propose it.
Traditional culture experiences, food, fashion, national celebrations.
Dance and music shows, artist collaborations, talent shows, competitions.
National and multinational student exchanges, freshman and alumni gatherings.
Career events, job fairs, practitioner talks, startup programs.
Student brands, photo and art exhibitions, community markets.
Semester events, year-end parties, awards — signature events repeatable every year.
Sponsorship Model
Events with large participation and a clear target audience may attract collaboration with companies connected to international students — telecom, finance and payments, food and beverage, travel, beauty, education, and careers.
Define the event's purpose, expected participants, and your association's unique content.
Connect the value brands will get with the support your association needs.
Configure logo exposure, experience booths, sampling, content collaborations, and more.
Sponsorship revenue is shared with your association by default; the split is agreed per event in advance.
