About HanSups

KIIP 사전평가 (pre-evaluation exam) prep that meets you in your own language.

Private beta

HanSups exists for one group of people: immigrants in Korea who have to take the KIIP 사전평가. The exam decides your placement in the Korea Immigration & Integration Program, and KIIP feeds into visa points, residency and naturalization. The stakes are high, but the prep is hard. Materials are Korean-only, classes have limited seats, sign-up is confusing, and no one is there to gauge your level or tell you what to study.

We don't compete with KIIP. It's the government program, and passing it is the goal. HanSups is the prep that meets you in your language. It estimates your level and gives you a clear plan for your exam date, on your phone, at your pace.

Your visa points shouldn't depend on how well you can find your way around a confusing, Korean-only government website. We build the tools that give everyone the same chance.

How we build

We're in private beta and we build it together with the people who use it. We share progress, listen to the problems you actually hit, and shape the product around them. If KIIP has been a wall for you or someone you know, tell us: [email protected].
