The aim of the article is to shed light on the Polish-Korean relations in education, culture and literature as presented in the historical approach. Up to the year 1950, these contacts were rare. Two researchers of the Far East: Jan Kalinowski and Wacław Sieroszewski were probably the first Poles who explored Korea. Their publications familiarized Polish readers with the country they knew so little of. Next, the historical background of the relations between Poland and North Korea as well as South Korea is outlined. A limited scientific and cultural exchange between Poland and North Korea lasted until 1989. After the establishment of diplomatic and economic relations between Poland and the Republic of Korea, the mutual contacts in the fields of education, culture and literature gained an impetus, and started to give tangible results. Finally, the author points out that, thanks to the effective economic and cultural policy of the two countries, institutional and interpersonal relations in the fields of education, culture, and literature have never been as close as they are today.
