Its core is a very complete collection covering the whole history of Czech fantastic literature, from its beginnings in the late 19th century until recent bestsellers. This gift will enlarge already a very rich collection of more than 3,000 Czech-language books kept at the HUFS´ Yongin campus library.

In his accompanying letter, Ambassador Jaroslav Olša, jr. mentioned the interest of Czech government in supporting studies of Czech language abroad. And the special interest goes also to only a few places outside of Europe, where the Czech language is being taught (as of today, Czech-language programmes outside of Europe do exist only on universities in Japan, China, North Korea, Mongolia, India, Vietnam, Azerbaijan, Egypt, United States, Canada and Australia).
