The Korean Embassy in Peru has moved into a new complex of its own in the central part of Lima.
The dedication of the two-building complex ended the embassy’s 27 years situated in a rented building since 1986.
It also marks the 50th anniversary of the countries’ diplomatic relations established in April 1963. The Korean Embassy has been stationed in Peru’s capital city since August 1971.
The new compound has an expanded antechamber and counseling space for visitors on a total floor space of 2,562 square meters. It has set aside a lot on which to build the Korean Cultural Center.
The embassy has been pushing a number of projects with the Peruvian government, including exports of Korea’s training jets and police cars.
Korea signed free trade agreements with Peru in August 2011. They upgraded their relations to a comprehensive strategic partnership in 2012.
