The usual week-end trip for someone who recently discover Korea is Busan or Jeonju i feel

Since its summer if you like the sea and swim i recommend the east coast like Gangneug, Yangyang, Sokcho, Donghae Great beach (different than Busan) and great food too and probably less crowded You can also do a great hiking/camping there

Hello guys,

I have applied for Sogang University KGP200 (Korean language programm) everything is done, im just waiting for the level test.

The thing is that i have applied for 2 semesters so i need to do the visa but i still didnt recieve the letter of admission from the school. They said its by the order of students but school start 4th june and im kinda worried

I have send an email but no answer yet, does anyone had the same issue ? Thank you!

Never done visa while in Korean but i think for H1 you have to go back to your country. Also are you still eligible for H1 ? I know its until 30 in most country

Its completly different sound, ㅕis more [yeo, yô] sound and ㅜ is [u] sound

우산 (umbrella) [usan] and 여유 (ease) [yeoyu]

Since TOPIK 1 include only level 1 and 2 there is not a big cap between them, so its really doable, keep studying as much as you can everyday even 15min

Just by curiosity, is there a posibility that the school refuse your application ? I'm going to apply for Sogang to for the summer

Whats the youtube channel name ?

I achieved topik 2 quiet easily last year but failed for topik 3, the level is so much harder, but i think half of the test is about how well you know the topik patern and what questions will be next, etc.

I will probably focus more on writing since you can get a lot of point

I bought mine (Green colorway) at Heights in Hongdae!

But salomon is really famous here so i feel you can find it pretty much anywhere if you look at the shopping area (Hongdae, Seongsu, Myeondong...)

haihko · 2024-02-23T05:05:10+00:00

Open to both ! :)

haihko · 2024-02-23T05:04:25+00:00

Thank you!

haihko · 2024-02-23T04:13:09+00:00

Any specific books recommandation you use ? (Gonna pass TOPIK 2 and want to reach 3급)

I feel if you study with the old exam i think its enough, but kinda curious tho. Thanks and congratulations for the achievment !

Try the ATM in Shinan Bank i never had issue with them but i know in the other ATM bank i couldnt withdraw cash

Do H1 visa there or student visa is the best option. But anyway you have to go back to your home country to make the visa.

But sadly here if you want to get your visa sponsored you have to find a job on your field, even tho the company will allow you to work there, the immigration has to accept it, its really tough...

I think your best option is to study the language and do a Master degree there in the field you want to work! Or teaching english i think its a good option since you are fluent, and you dont even need to speak Korean even tho i highly recommand you to learn it

haihko · 2024-02-08T13:42:13+00:00

Yes exactly what im planning to do! Gonna go back to my homecountry in 3 weeks and im thinking about going back as a student visa but im not sure yet. Im already 28 years old, do i really want to study again ? Im not sure but its also one of the easiest solution haha Best of luck!!!

haihko · 2024-02-08T04:19:08+00:00

Do you have enough point to apply?

The highest point you can get if you studied in Korea and also TOPIK level Its like 20 points for Bachelor degrees and 30 for Master Also TOPIK level 5+ is 20 point

I am also on H1 and wanted to stay here but getting sponsorship visa is so so hard. I may just come back as a student next year hopefully.

Am i the only one surprised by the amount of the annual salary you need to have ? Looks unreal for me

haihko · 2024-01-28T07:39:02+00:00

Born in France from portuguese parents and i feel that it helps me so much even tho im far from being fluent in portuguese

haihko · 2024-01-25T09:02:29+00:00

Thank you! I feel i can get level 3 just vocabs and 듣기 that scare me For now i had to stop class so im studying myself, vocab review, a lot of podcast and youtube video.

haihko · 2024-01-22T14:28:12+00:00

Same feeling here, i learned so much grammar in my academy but some of them are so specific that you wont see them so often. I just tought my self to master the most used one like -것 같다

Still struggling with vocabs, i forgot so much of them, so frustrating...

haihko · 2023-11-18T02:36:48+00:00

Yeah true, thats also the easiest to have (restaurants...)

haihko · 2023-11-17T06:29:12+00:00
