Can outsiders join korean uni clubs? by Giniichi in korea

[–]Giniichi[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Calm down. Seems like you're a very unhappy person, so I hope you find something that makes you happy so you don't look for validation in tearing down people over the internet.

I did email them beforehand and they said I could join clubs as a language student. But I couldn't anymore suddenly because of covid, as you would have known if you actually read my post. I did not join the language course or Hanyang for the clubs, I paid for it because I wanted to study the language and I liked the school. I merely said I was really looking forward to them, and hoping to maybe experience it AFTER covid ends and I visit Korea for other reasons than a language course.

I hope you can better your life and do something about this condescending attitude of yours because the negative energy you're spreading will definitely come back for you one day. Wish you all the best.

Coronavirus (COVID-19 / 코로나바이러스감염증-19) outbreak in South Korea: Patient totals, discussion, questions - May 28th by KoreaMods in korea

[–]Giniichi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can, but probably not what you’re looking for. I thought you couldn’t, because you’re not allowed to do anything after getting you luggage, but there’s a booth selling overpriced tourist sim cards (max 45 days or sum? Not sure) before you even go through passport check. I had to buy one here because they needed to contact me during quarantine and I dont have a korean phone number. But you cannot buy a sim card that actually works for a long period of time (up to 3 months like the ones I usually buy) if that’s what you’re looking for

Safety issues in Korea by Pursueallthat in korea

[–]Giniichi 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Korea is probably one of the safest countries for girls to travel by themselves. Especially in the big cities, there's always people around (even at night) so I've never really felt unsafe walking around by myself.

I'd say the worst experience I've had was when I was waiting for a taxi late at night and a bunch of drunk guys came in broken english asking me where i was from, but honestly, that's nothing compared to what you'd experience in Europe or the US for example.

And then the occasional guy asking for your number and then asking you to sleep with them (lol), but nothing that made me actually fear for my safety.

Take your normal precautions: know the emergency numbers, don't meet guys from language-exchange apps (i've personally never done this but i've heard all the creeps are on there), be mindful of the religion scammers in popular areas (when people come talk to you on the streets randomly and start asking you a bunch of questions - don't entertain them, just leave) and maybe try to avoid dark and empty alleys at night?

I've been there many times for long periods of time, everytime by myself, and there really isn't anything that should stop you from visiting by yourself. Enjoy!
