Construction started around 1996.[4] It opened in 1998.[5] The Ministry of Education (South Korea) helped pay for the establishment of the school, which took 3.5 billion won of ministry funding and donations and another 3.5 billion won of investments. At some point it was not registered as a nonprofit organization in Brazil, so taxes began to decimate the school in a three-year period. It closed in 2017.[2]
