Since the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between China and South Korea in 1992, there has been a trend of warm exchanges between the two sides. However, the advent of COVID-19 spread suddenly across the world and brought an unprecedented infectious disaster to human society and had a huge impact on the exchanges between two countries. With the prolonged outbreak, the "coexistence" with human beings during the COVID-19 has become a "new normal". Under the background of the normalization of the pandemic, people from all walks of life have begun to try to open new ways of people-to-people exchange, one of such attempts is the live-streaming of Korean courses. Some Korean language education institutes in South Korea’s Universities are offering live-streaming Korean courses to Chinese college students, hoping to boost their interest in the language and culture. If more and more Chinese college students are interested in the Korean language, Korea’s Universities can continue the exchange and cooperation with Chinese Universities and help them realize their desire to study in Korea, thereby promoting international exchanges between the Universities. From a national perspective, people-to-people exchanges between the two countries can thus be continued in the context of the pandemic, and bilateral relations can continue to move forward. However, there is no relevant explanation in academic circles as to whether online Korean courses will help to cultivate Chinese college students' interest in Korean. The data collected using questionnaires was subjected to statistical analysis using the SPSS 26.0 platform. It was observed that the live streaming of Korean language courses to Chinese college students, which were carried out by a Korean local University language institute, improved the students’ Korean level and understanding of Korean culture. They remained interested in the Korean language. With regards to interest intensity, more than half of the students' interest intensity in the Korean language remained unchanged, about 10% of the students' interest intensity increased, while about 30% decreased. Therefore, live streaming of Korean courses did not achieve the purpose of improving college students' interest in Korean.

소개
본 연구소의 설립을 통해 우선 한중 양국 국민의 상호이해와 교류증진을 위한 인문, 사회과학적인 연구는 물론이고, 이를 통해 기업(인)이 중국에 안정적인 정착과 교류를 할 수 있는 각종 환경을 조성하고자 한다.
게다가 본 연구소는 기존의 연구소의 기능과는 달리 단순한 학술 교류에 머물지 않고 인적 교류를 통해 양국관계의 이해를 증진하고 나아가 한국과 중국의 각종 프로젝트를 적극 유치, 개발함으로써 지속적으로 재원의 창출을 도모하고자 한다.
