PolyU Students Excel at 9th Korean Consul General Cup Speech Contest

On 28 June 2025, two outstanding Korean minor students from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University have achieved remarkable success at the prestigious 9th Korean Consul General Cup Korean Speech Contest, widely regarded as Hong Kong's most authoritative Korean language competition. 

At this annual competition organised by the Consulate General of the Republic of Korea in Hong Kong and the Korean Cultural Center in Hong Kong, Mr Ma Kin Kei, BA student in English and Applied Linguistics, claimed the First Prize while Miss Cham Tsz Mei, BBA student in Accounting and Finance, secured the Third Place in the open division.

As the top prize winner, Mr Ma has also earned the distinguished opportunity to participate in a cultural training programme in Korea, sponsored by the King Sejong Institute Foundation. This one-week immersive experience will further enhance his understanding of the Korean language and culture.
