New Deullak Nallak spotlights AI and English
The main hall at BGV Deullak Nallak
A new Deullak Nallak children's complex opened at Busan Global Village on Feb. 9, featuring an AI-based, interactive learning environment that invites children to immerse themselves in the English language through play.
The new space, a repurposed exhibition hall, boasts modern amenities, including AI-driven LED media art, a virtual AI tutor, experience zones and various digital reading resources. Notably, the AI tutor assesses each learner's level to provide customized content while also assisting instructors with administrative and learning support. Children and their families can also access a collection of 1,300 English books.
Special programs, such as reading sessions and classes with native-English speakers are slated to launch in the coming weeks. These programs require reservations that can be made via the BGV website (bgv.co.kr).
The facility is open Tuesday to Friday from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and on Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Entry is limited to 50 people at a time. It is closed on Sundays, Mondays and holidays.
