Abstract
This study examined social service needs of American expatriates in South Korea and Korean expatriates in the United States on the basis of problems they experienced in the host country and services they would like to see developed. The findings suggested that the respondents were mainly concerned about language barriers, elderly parents back home, and children's schooling. Correspondingly, they desired social services such as language training, services for elderly parents, and school counselling for children. The results call for practical social work interventions for global workers.
