"Participating in the Korea University summer program was one of the best life decisions I've ever made. This experience made me more independent and self-confident. Stepping out of my comfort zone to try new things and navigate through obstacles such as language barriers and culture shocks allowed me to be confident that I can accomplish more in my future travels."
