  • Exchange Report
    Exchange Report Yonsei University (연세대학교) Seoul, South Korea KIM, Joo Eun BBA in Global Business & Marketing, Year 3 Fall 2017 Part I: Monthly Activity Log August 2017 I arrived in Seoul in late August, a few days before the dorm check-in day. After relaxing and exploring Seoul with my family and friends, I moved in to Yonsei University’s SK Global House on the 26th. The few days before Orientation is a great time to snap some gorgeous campus photos as students are still on holiday and there is barely any crowd. Most people after moving in went to stock up on home supplies at Daiso (this chain of stores has economical prices). There is a large Daiso located across the road from Exit 2 Sinchon station, and a smaller one before that right next to the station exit. For my SIM card plan, I got it activated at SK Telecom in the main Sinchon road in front of school. I found it really unique how you could pick the last four digits of your phone number. Before the start of the semester on September 1st, I had catch-ups with my family and friends who came to visit. We went for a fantastic Korean BBQ at 형제갈비 in Sinchon (the BBQ is incredibly pricey, but the 24H 갈비탕 is very worth it), visited 경복궁 while wearing 한복 and also had a refreshing 팥빙수 at the iconic 설빙 dessert place. September 2017 Semester started on the 1st, and the first week or so was about settling into the study rhythm and groove of the University lifestyle.
