The campuses in Korea are really nice and spacious! Yonsei is quite near Sogang, where I went to school. I reckon you’ll have a blast!
I really delight in Goong and the other dramas too. I hope to be able to visit the film sites of some Korean dramas, like My Girl and Boys Before Flowers!

I LOVED Goong!!! It’s my fav K Drama ever.
I’m plotting on studying abroad at Yonsei in a year. The campus is gorgeous.

Hi Anelssi! you should certainly study abroad in college! It’s such an incredible opportunity! I attended Boston College, and our school encourages studying abroad in several countries, including the US. A lot of colleges have study abroad programs, so you don’t have to worry about that. If you will attend a college that doesn’t have a program in Korea, you can apply to an external program, and go to Korea through another school. There are also summer programs to study in Korea. God bless!

I’m so glad it’s helpful for you! It was hard at first, but the intensive Korean language course I took helped tremendously! Making Korean friends were the best way to learn the language! The signs are in English, so you can get around with a map. There are some people who know English, so it’s not too terrible. I had such a fantastic time!
