KELI is a dormitory in Keimyung University that started in 2002. The dorm is unique as more than 80 people from various countries are staying in this dormitory. The style of the dormitory is one Korean student and one foreign student in each room. The students can share many things through living together, such as their thoughts, ideas, language and etc. For example, Korean students can learn about other languages and their interesting culture, and foreign students can learn about Korean culture.
