    Globalization has facilitated the movement of people from one continent to another and provided opportunities to experience diverse cultures. Africans living in Korea migrated from their home countries for various reasons, including education and employment. While Korea had previously earned an international reputation as one of the most homogenous countries, its society is slowly changing, even encouraging multiculturalism. Data for this study was collected using a qualitative research method (a combination of focus groups and interviews) from six African groups in Korea. A questionnaire was sent to 175 migrants, and 120 completed and returned it. Recognizing these migrants’ experiences can assist in understanding the uniqueness of their situations, and may help policymakers design integration programs and activities for migrants in general and those of African origins in particular. The findings indicate that the respondents employed several integration strategies at various points during their stay in Korea; most cited learning the Korean language as a breakthrough in the adaptation process. Additionally, the Korean government’s programs for foreigners were evaluated as being encouraging for migrants. An overwhelmingly number of respondents agreed that their psychological sense of community (first introduced by Sarason, 1974) was paramount for successful adaptation in their new society.
