King Sejong Institute is a national education brand belonging to the government that treats popularizing Korean language and culture as its mission. It offers practical Korean language learning opportunity to people who are willing to learn Korean language. Since the first KSI was established in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia in 2007, now it has 172 branches locating in 57 countries by the end of 2018. After introducing the background and history of KSI in detail, this paper concludes that the long history accumulation and strong support of national laws enforce the construction of KSI. During the process of its development, KSI keeps updating: in order to develop better, it changed direct management institutions for three times. Now, under the condition of forcing KSI’s national brand, Korea continuously consolidates its “neutral” position, and obtains business benefits from it.
