The 56th Korean Culture Experience Workshop for LAPD

Since 2008, Korean Cultural Center Los Angeles has organized 'The Korean Culture Experience Workshop for LAPD' on a regular basis, with more than 2,000 police officers in Los Angeles having participated in 55 workshops as of August 2024.


The workshop is held four or five times a year for 30-40 participating officers each time, with a variety of lectures on topics such as “Korean History, Past and Present,” “Overview of Korean American History and Community,” and “Understanding of Korean Society and Culture” as well as a range of cultural experiences such as tasting Korean food, enjoying a traditional music performance, and watching a Taekwondo demonstration.


This workshop has helped police officers in the Los Angeles County region to broaden their understanding of Korean culture and Korean American society while providing an opportunity for Korean Americans to be better understood by law enforcement officer.
