Practical details
The venue is Education Building B661, Ewha Womans University. The access to the venue can be found here.
There are 2 Education Buildings: A (red brick, marked in the Googlemap below) and B (this building looks more modern), with separate entrances. Once you reach the Education Building B, if the door is locked, use the interphone to ask the guard to open the door. Then take the elevator up to 6th floor, and you can easily find the room 661.
Here's how to get to the entrance of the Education Building B, assuming that you are coming from the subway line-2 station "Edae-yeok", which means "Ewha Womans University Station". [Not shown here -- it's located below (4)]
Once you enter the main gate of the university (4), follow the indicated path, enjoying the beautiful campus and a few historic buildings including the main hall.
Once you come down a stepway (8), you will reach the main entrance of the Education Building B (9).
In front of the entrance, the door would be open so that you can enter the building. If the entrance is locked, you may use the interphone (there will be a sign) to call the guard and ask him to open door, saying that you are a participant of the NRF-JSPS Workshop.
