Regarding cultural activities in Korea, I am really grateful to the KF scholarship fund for allowing me to be exposed to many unique cultural features such as: making traditional candy, watching Nanta performances. When participating, I better understand cultural values in Korea. I really enjoy watching Nanta shows. When I learned about it online, I simply thought it was just making sounds from bowls, chopsticks, pots and pans, but when I saw it with my own eyes in Korea, I was really surprised. The clear plot, witty and humorous actors create a very interesting atmosphere for viewers. I seemed completely absorbed in the 1 hour and 30 minute experience. I like the cultural values that I get to experience. Instead of hearing about them through the media or movies, this is a great opportunity to help me best understand the cultural beauties in Korea.

I have never lived in Korea and my wish is to experience being a Korean international student. It was surprising that the KF scholarship fund and Sookmyung Women＇s University provided me with excellent accommodation and dormitories. Fully equipped with amenities, furniture and essential needs. Especially the toilet is extremely clean, beautiful interior, lots of storage space. My impression of the dormitory is that it has strict security to ensure student safety, and the dormitory is beautiful and spacious and comfortable. I stayed in room 622, although the room was not too large in area, it had a smart arrangement, many cabinets and storage space for students. 2 people stay extremely comfortable and spacious, the bed is soft and the items provided are extremely practical and necessary. Another thing I like is that every floor has a common room for dining and refrigerators, . I really like the bread press at the dormitory, it saves me a lot of time for breakfast. I believe any student will feel satisfied.

1.This is my first time going to Seoul, a country I have always wanted to explore. In Seoul there are many beautiful scenes, wonderful scenery and friendly people. I was very surprised by Seoul＇s steep roads, it made me a bit tired when walking but I think after returning to Vietnam I won＇t be able to experience it. Besides, I really like the public transportation system. Instead of using personal cars, people choose public transportation more, which makes the air much cleaner. Korean food is very suitable for me, although it is a bit spicy but very delicious.
2.About SMU, I have a wish that I can return here to study for a Master＇s degree after graduating. The environment, landscape and friends at SMU are truly wonderful. Professors teach enthusiastically and are easy to grasp. I was very impressed with the Korean culture and relations class. The professor＇s shares made me remember for a long time and he was extremely friendly and approachable. Besides, in Korean class, the professor is always cheerful and bright with a bright smile on his face when teaching. It all makes me love SMU so much. The campus has a lot of green trees, fresh air and I feel really relaxed. Besides, I would like to express my most respectful thanks to the KF scholarship fund and Young-eun Lee - a KF program coordinator for enthusiastically supporting me from the beginning of this journey. All the help coming from the school makes me extremely touched. It can be said that SMU is very enthusiastic and full of dynamism to me. I love SMU.
3.I think not only myself but also other participants feel regretful when having to say goodbye to SMU. I have gradually gotten used to the bustling, safe, and exciting life in Korea. I love the sound of subway trains or buses, the aroma of familiar dishes that I＇ve only seen in movies before, and the streets full of pedestrians. After the activities, the school always gives us free time to explore Korea. The supporters always ask: Does anyone want to stay here? Always respect each individual＇s wishes. I feel very lucky to have been a part of the scholarship fund and the program.
4.After classes, I participated in activities such as going to watch baseball with friends from Korea, visiting famous neighborhoods such as Myeodong, Hongdae,... and enjoying traditional dishes at the Korean tradition markets. I have really immersed myself in life here. I often make videos about my life in Korea and post them on my personal tiktok. I hope you enjoy it.

1.After the course, I knew a lot about the specific culture of Korea. Although there are a few similarities between Vietnamese and Korean culture, each country has its own unique features. The cultures I learned that I felt impressed with were: pali pali, collectivisim culture, keeping face, han,and noonchi. I am really impressed with Korean pali pali culture. Everything Koreans do is very quick. For example, when I walk into a restaurant, I only have to wait 5-10 minutes for the food I ordered even though the restaurant is extremely crowded. This surprised me very much. In the morning atmosphere, people also move quickly, buying coffee to start a morning full of energy. I really like this atmosphere.
2.I am truly interested in Korean Cuisine. Korean food is not just about taste; it＇s an experience that engages all the senses. The diverse flavors, vibrant colors, and the communal aspect of dining make it truly unique. Here are some dishes, which I like:
-Bibimbap: A colorful and nutritious dish that translates to "mixed rice,"
-Kimchi: This iconic fermented dish, made primarily from cabbage and radishes, is a staple in every Korean meal.
-Korean BBQ: The experience of grilling your own meat.
We have a lot of Korean restaurants in Vietnam, however when I ate in Korea, I felt original taste.

My advice to the following participants is that when you have any opportunity, take it, because you will have extremely valuable experiences. Access to new cultures, new languages, new experiences.
-The KF Scholarship Fund is one of the scholarship funds that brings many useful experiences, so please do not miss KF classes in the future.
-Learn languages other than your mother tongue like English or Korean because maybe you will have the opportunity to use it in the future.
-After receiving a scholarship, the first thing to do is carefully read the instructions from the scholarship sponsor. Please read those instructions carefully before preparing related documents.
-Applying for a visa will be a bit difficult for the first time, but try your best because everyone needs to go through difficult times. Please consult with professionals working on visas. Conditions for each type of visa in each country are different, so please consult carefully and discuss with the program manager to find the best solution.
-Ask when you want information, and always say thank you when you receive the information you want.
And finally, good luck.
