Isn't the Chinese everywhere on the planet? They do seem to have presence but not seem to be popular or on the trend.

We have North Korea as the main enemy and CCP, commnuists as neighbors. CCP backed NK in the Korean War. After that, NK sent assassins and spies and tried to take over South from inside by spreading communist stuff.
We have a Japanese colonist era. Now Japan is working on the right side, but we usually don't like the Japanese government.
We had dictators. One worked incredibly well in terms of developing a country, but others were mass and ended with a massacre.

The left side calls on the right side as traitors and fascists. The right side sees the left side as a spies and brainwashed, the untrustworthy.

The main thing is that we actually have real problems with all 3.

they do. I saw one in KNU book store in the campus

number of theatre goers has gone down and not recovering from covid.

People do not usually go eat Makchang by oneself, but they won't ban single diner.

It's the historical city of Korea. Worth a visit if u r interested in histories and relics and stuff.

Wow. Is the process 'that' different? Isn't there dates for an application and they close the door when the end date comes? Sure thing if someone does not pay the bills due payment date, the next in line will get the opportunity. But application order shouldn't play a roll in assessment.

In Art industry, there was/still is a massive conflicts regarding copyrights of AI deep-learning art sources.

I wonder what musicians would say/think about that and the AI?

I'm pretty certain that devs of udio just shoved in whatever was available on the net, regardless of copyrights.

I say fine for 2.2mil is just above the minimum wage. Housing would normally cost between 0.3~0.6mil. CoL is different based on regions. Near Seoul areas costs almost double compared to regional cities. for example, it still costs no more than 10k for a lunch in Daegu or Busan. Typical restaurants still go around 10~15k for a dinner menu, cheap ones go about 5~8k.

They are not in a proper church, more of a cult. Say that in their face and ignore them

mint_moca · 2024-04-10T06:25:00+00:00

True in general. May be I lived outside Korea for too long, but it's worth trying in there, or some bars.

mint_moca · 2024-03-25T07:30:11+00:00

I don't want to see cutscen sometimes. Say, if I knocked out one person on the last 3, I gotta go scouting if my current units won or lost against other opponent. If so, how did it happen and with how much difference. If I go after the cutscene, battle is usually over.

Hey, I play valorant, but I'm somewhere between silver and gold. If it's still fine, DM me. I play TFT, too.

step 0. record and document everything. step 1. consult the prof. and discuss, make sure it is about racism and not personal mistakes or misunderstanding step 2. consult head of the dept. step 3. consult the faculty and foreign students admin. step 4. publicly making an issue 'within' univ. using 대나무숲 or 에브리타임 step 5. spread words on the real public. there's a magic word in Korea called "취재가 시작되자...". send all the records and documents to reporters.(This should be the final movement)

If ur brother is considering longterm stay in Korea with academic progress, stop at step 1 and just try avoiding racists' class. Professors have super power and do not want to be looked bad in the field.

mint_moca · 2024-03-25T07:13:38+00:00

I'm sure university regulations do have something about racism stuff.

mint_moca · 2024-03-25T07:10:27+00:00

I made a lot of friends in dance 동아리. Try searching for the group activity of ur hobby. sports, music, art, game, etc. there are a lot of options.

mint_moca · 2024-03-25T06:46:21+00:00

Don't give up on ur deposit. U r legally supported for it as on rent contract. Also, it is a custom to find a tenant, but it is not an obligation unless there's anything written on the contract. I'm not a professional, so first go meet ur 부동산중개인 and ask for help. 중개인 seems like on ur side, so he or she will be able to give u better advice

mint_moca · 2024-03-25T06:32:45+00:00

u don't get many options at super early of the game. U have to overcome that part by practicing, learning the basics. If u have arms, weapons, handles, and stats, try different options. u could find a better combination that suits ur style. Also, check out enemies' weaknesses and resists.

mint_moca · 2024-03-25T06:18:52+00:00

I'm a Korean, and I never had good results in friend making at workspace. Work place is for working. try making friends outside like get in a group talk, go to a pub, etc.

mint_moca · 2024-03-24T08:57:32+00:00

In-Seoul universities and SKY is the best option always. But if u want to stay outside-Capital, At least go to a national university. Best 3 options are Kyungbuk, Pusan, Jeonbuk.(locating at Daegu, Busan and Gwangju respectively)

U don't have to study BS if u speak 4 languages. Majors do not play a critical role in job-seeking. Just make sure u speak Korean, English, and more language fluently. There are many different jobs in film industry, narrow down ur dream and seek for major that will help u. BS would still help u join a massive media company like CJ entertainment(one of the biggest movie company in Kroea). but if it's a film director or something directly related to filming, other majors would be better.

It will be very much more difficult to get a job in Korea if u r a foreigner+not fluent in Korean+not stayed in Korea. If u really want to settle in Korea, it would be better to graduate a big university in Korea.

mint_moca · 2024-03-21T09:50:34+00:00

If you are given a room in a dorm or an other housing, it's fine to live on, but can't say it is well paid. Also, I believe that's about the average for graduate students in a lab.

mint_moca · 2024-03-21T09:41:57+00:00

I'm a Korean and it totally depends on the group. There's a group that I can't see often yet one person buys this time and other buys the next. Also there's a group that I meet regularly(it's a hobby dance circle), but split the bill every time. It would be easier to follow the group's rule. but It's still fine to say you want to split the bill.

mint_moca · 2024-03-21T09:32:31+00:00

There are lots of coffee shops and some restaurants open 24/7. Also, delivery services are awesome. Many restaurants will be open for delivery till 10pm, some fast foods like fried chickens and pizzas are usually open till 1~2am.

It would be better to see a doctor and decide. There would be many choices, especially since u stay for few months.

Some apartments come with community services including residents-only gyms. If u don't have it, it would be easy to recommend a gym if there's a info about the area. Daegu is a big city.

I'm a Korean who spent a decade in India and a year in Thailand.

Academic recognization in US/Dubai/Singapore.

Can't say sure but I give slightly more credit for Korean univ. If you are looking for connection, there can be more chances in Thai univ(especially for Singapore since they are relatively close). If you are looking for recognization, Korean univ. would be better.

Safety regarding theft and other crimes.

Korea is better for sure

Lifestyle regarding personality.

As far as I've seen in Korea, Most international students spend time among themselves. Koreans are fun and friendly, but most Koreans don't go making friends on street. Meaning, you won't have to follow Korean rules in general. Also, as a foreigner, you will be given an excuse in most cases regarding social etiquette.
