There is a well-established Korean community in London and in the nearby local area of New Malden, where Samsung established its European headquarters in the 1960s.
As well as an array of Korean restaurants, supermarkets and food shops, there are also organisations that support the community, including the Korean Residents Society and the Korean Community Centre, and groups that arrange social events and cultural activities such as the Korean Cultural Centre and the Chinese/Korean/Japanese Society.
