Overview
Program Information and Updates (March 2025)
1. K-Beauty Track
Students participating in the K-Beauty Track will have a materials fee. This fee covers costs associated with museum admission and craft-making activities.
Fee: KRW 55,000 per student (to be collected on orientation day, cash only)
2. Bedding Rental
The dormitory rooms are unfurnished, and unlike semester staying students, short-term program students may not have the chance to purchase bedding from a nearby E-Mart. Therefore, we will arrange a rental service in advance. For your comfort, we offer rental bedding sets, including a pillow, bed cover, and blanket.
Bedding sets will be available for pickup at the dormitory lobby.
Fee: KRW 35,000 (cash only at the check-in reception desk).
3. Program Update
A distinctive feature of our program is the incorporation of field work related to theory (different from official field trips), with visits planned to enterprises and industry-specific sites. These visits are pending site reservation and guide confirmation and will be updated accordingly. Korean language courses will not include fieldwork, and some elective courses may not incorporate fieldwork depending on their progression.
