South Korea and Argentina will introduce a "working holiday" visa program this weekend to help promote exchange visits by their young citizens, Seoul's foreign ministry said Friday.







The two sides signed the accord on a work and travel program on Nov. 27 last year, and it is to take effect Saturday.







It will allow South Koreans aged 18-30 to work, study and travel in Argentina for up to a year. The yearly quota is 200. Young Argentines will be able to do so in South Korea as well.







South Korea has working holiday agreements with 24 countries. As of 2018, around 40,000 South Koreans had benefited from the program. (Yonhap)
