The Embassy of Turkey in Seoul (Turkish: Türkiye'nin Seul Büyükelçiliği) is the diplomatic mission of Turkey in South Korea.[1]

History[edit]

The current ambassador Ersin met with North Korean chairman Kim Yong-nam in 2018. In the meeting, Kim requested that a North Korean embassy be established in Turkey. Ersin declined the invitation, saying that it was currently not possible due to US sanctions.[1][2]
