South Korea – Brunei Diplomatic Relations

Korea and Brunei established diplomatic relations in January 1984, shortly after Brunei's independence. The relationship has been steady if understated, focusing primarily on energy trade — Brunei supplies LNG to Korea — and ASEAN multilateral cooperation. People-to-people ties remain limited due to Brunei's small population, but Hallyu has increased interest among younger Bruneians.
