This study examines the implementation of international exchange programs conducted within public education, focusing on the Gyeonggi Provincial Office of Education from the standpoint of global citizenship education. It also proposes the feasibility and direction of international exchange programs based on the analytical framework that analyses the global citizenship education as the competency-based approach, moral approach, and critical approach. The research questions are: first, 'what is the aspects of the implementation of international exchange programs in terms of global citizenship education?' and second, 'what is the possibility of implementing international exchange programs as global citizenship education?' To find the answer to the questions, documents related to the international exchange program and data from interviews with the person in charge and the participants of programs were analyzed. This paper found that there is a feasibility for implementing the competency-based approach and moral approach in the international exchange programs. However, in order to invigorate international exchange as the practice of global citizenship education, it is recommended that: first, international exchange from the viewpoint of critical approach should be developed. Second, every student should have the opportunity to participate in the programs regardless of their economic status. Lastly, target nations for international exchange should be chosen not only from the competency-based approach but from the various perspective of global citizenship education.
