History
During the Korean War, Colombia was the only Latin American nation to actively participate in the UN Forces, with ground troops and its only frigate, the Almirante.[1] The first Colombian soldiers arrived in Korea on 8 May 1951 and the last departed on 11 October 1954. In all 4,314 soldiers were deployed.[2] The commander of the forces was general Alberto Ruiz Novoa.[3][4]
Colombia and South Korea officially established relations in 1962. The South Korean embassy in Bogota opened in 1971, and Colombia's in Seoul opened in 1978.[5]
Diplomatic missions
Colombia has an embassy in Seoul. The embassy is located in the Jongno district of Seoul, near the Gyeonghuigung, the Gyeongbokgung, the Sejong Center, and the Seoul Museum of History precisely at 1 Jongno 1-ga[6][7] at the intersection of Sejongno expressway, and it is serviced by the Gwanghwamun subway station.[8]
Located on the 11th floor of the Kyobo Life Insurance Building, the embassy shares its space with the Consulate General of Colombia in Seoul, which is also accredited to the Philippines in matters of consular affairs.[9]
South Korea has an embassy in Bogota.
Agreements
On 25 June 2012, Colombia and Korea officially concluded negotiations for a free trade agreement.[10]
During Colombian President Ivan Duque Marquez's state visit to South Korea in August 2021, both countries signed 14 MOUs in the fields of public health, science and technology, cultural and creative industries, agriculture, ICT, digital government, Small and Medium Business Administration (MSMES), start-up ecosystem, and sustainable development to prevent and respond to diseases.[5]

The Korea International Cooperation Agency (KOIA) opened its office in Bogota in 2009. During the COVID-19 pandemic, it supported the establishment of medical facilities. South Korea announced a five-year official development assistance program for Colombia by 2025.[5]
