This talk is presented by the French Consul, Ishwar Arnold Rocke, regarding the topic of “French Presence in South Korea”. The consul’s talk deals with the close relations between France and Korea with a particular focus on the presence of French nationals in Korea and vice versa . He also talks about the history of the two countries’ relationship and the lifestyles of French and Korean immigrants living in each country. His talk is particularly frank and straightforward, but also friendly and entertaining, with many familiar examples and concise answers during the Q&A.  One particular strength  about his talk is that he delivers lots of necessary information that audience members are likely to want to know about issues related to the French Embassy. Though he keeps his talk brief, he also makes it very informative and interesting at the same time.
