Memorable experience in Korea

So, how was Korea?
It was good!
I truly had a great time during my 2 weeks stay in the city Jeonju.

Jeonju, a city which is full of greens and nature. It is also famous with its traditional food bibimbap which is well known across South Korea. People there were very friendly and always portray a smile on their face. We felt safe in Korea, as we can just leave our important belongings anywhere without being stolen by people. We also felt safe by walking alone at night without being worried of people kidnapping us.

The uni that we were in-Chonbuk National University (CBNU).
Such a huge campus and they have a National park and zoo inside the uni. WOW!
Clean campus and their rooms, gosh, so nice, with aircond and water heater.
With just one access card that looks like a pendrive, we can enter into our hostels.
There's a convenience store, stationary shop, a cafe, western food and noodles shop which is so convenient for students living there.
Recycling bins were provided at the ground floor of the hostels where we need to separate our own rubbish accordingly (papers, platic, vinyl, books, umbrella, etc).
Their toilets are also very clean, you can't throw your toilet paper inside the toilet bowl, you have to throw it separately.

Missing the times where my friends and I used to walked to Old Gate or Lotte Mart every night during our free time.
Just strolling around the streets, so happening, so many facial products shop.
Sometimes, we will take the cab to town area Gaeksa, which has more shops like Uniqlo, Zara, H&M, etc.

~Gaeksa~

You literally walked everywhere. People there loves to walk.
Although the weather was really sunny,but it was not humid, you won't feel sticky or smelly after sweating a lot.
Would love to experience the other seasons there in future.


Truly, God has really blessed me by giving me the opportunity to explore something new.
Especially travelling overseas without your parents, being independent and managing stuffs on your own.
Tho there were lotsa ups and downs before and during the trip, you have no idea how many stuffs I was asked to settle before this trip, but I am blessed to have 25 others who helped me out with things while we were in Korea and also for my HOUSEMATES and PKV friends who were helping me out before the trip!
What would I do without them! (i was physically and emotionally drained)
Truly grateful and thankful for all of em.
I've made many new friends, be it from UM or from CBNU,
New connections made, new friendships formed, I pray that it will last forever.


Really sad that 2 weeks past so fast. Just when you wanna get to know one another more, you had to leave.
Thank you for all the memories we had.
Thank you for the hospitality that you have given us.
Thank you for making us feel warm in CBNU and Korea.
Thank you God for everything.

Korea, i will definitely visit you again! =)
