What is Momo Camp?
“MoMo” stands for modu mo-ida (모두 모이다), a Korean phrase that translates as “Everyone Gathers.”
Momo Camp can help children, who are not local to Korea, discover what makes Korea so special.
Day Camp
A 4-week camp located at Sookmyung Women’s University in Seoul where campers get to explore Korean heritage through activities, storytelling, and field trips across Seoul.
Residential Camp – (5th-8th Graders)
A 3-week camp where campers join day campers during the day; however, it includes evening activities and weekend excursions.
The residential program is open to rising 5th–8th graders. Residential campers will participate in the same daytime program as day campers and return to the Kookmin University dorms with staff in the evenings, while day campers go home.
Residential campers will have breakfast and dinner on campus and enjoy evening activities such as additional Korean language sessions, games, movies, and other recreational programs before bedtime.

Momo Camp Pros
The great thing about Momo Camp is that they provide transportation and accommodation.
They have bus drop-off and pick-up. And they have a residence they partnered with so you don’t have to worry about where to stay.
They even went as far as to have an itinerary including fun things for parents to do while their child is in the day camp! Awesome!
