Professor Eunkyung Oh Gives Expert Interview on Arirang TV During the Korea-Central Asia Summit 2026

A trusted partner, colleague, and friend of Al-Farabi Kazakh National University, South Korean Professor Eunkyung Oh, delivered an expert interview on the international news channel Arirang TV as part of the "Korea–Central Asia Summit 2026."

     During the interview, Professor Oh highlighted a critical aspect of regional cooperation: while there is a strong cohort of youth in Central Asia fluent in Korean, Korea faces a notable shortage of specialists fluent in Kazakh and Uzbek. She emphasized that bridging this gap is the essential key to building a genuine, balanced partnership.

    This insightful commentary reinforces our university's key role in international academic diplomacy. Professor Eunkyung Oh is a true pride of our community!

    On behalf of the Department of Turkology and Theory of Language and the entire Al-Farabi KazNU community, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to Professor Oh! May all your strategic initiatives and vision be successfully realized. KazNU is always with you!

Respectfully,

Head of the Department of Turkology and Theory of Language, Faculty of Philology, Doctor of Philological Sciences, Professor Raushangul A. Avakova
