Kangnam University is a private university in Yongin, South Korea.
Founded July 1, 1946 by Reverend Yi Ho-bin as the Choong-ang Theology Institute, the school initially met at a lecture hall in the local YMCA in
Gangnam-gu
in 1974.
In 1976, the school was renamed the Kangnam Social Welfare School; the name, which the university kept to this day, comes from its city ward at the time. In 1980, the school moved to its present location in Yongin,
Gyeonggi-do
, South Korea. Kangnam received its university accreditation in 1992.
