Emma studied abroad in Korea for four months in 2024, and in her words, “did a lot of exploring, both in Seoul and beyond.” Spending time with local friends over a longer period of time gave her insight into the joys of daily life in Korea, including singing in noraebang (singing rooms), enjoying fried chicken by the Han River, experiencing a temple stay, and “so, so, so many cafes!”
Michael traveled to Korea in 2023 with his wife for a very special occasion—their honeymoon! They spent a significant amount of time exploring Jeju island off Korea’s southern coast and sampled exquisite regional cuisine, but also made time for Seoul’s iconic sites, including shopping in Myeongdong and a visit to the royal palace, Gyeongbokgung.
Dhania and her sister, both avid K-Pop fans, traveled to Korea in 2024 to “explore the culture, amazing food, and create the bond that we never expected.” With just 10 days to spend there, the pair learned to navigate public transportation using Korean map apps, explored Jeju island during an excursion, and visited many of the most travelled-to spots for BTS fans.
Soomin led a group eight people on a unique food tour of Korea. Having been born there before moving to the United States in 2012, it was an exciting and eye-opening experience. The group tasted everything from crave-worthy street food to two-star Michelin restaurants—this trip was all about the food!
Ronda traveled to Korea in 2024 to take part in a guided group tour designed to visit iconic sites from famous K-Dramas and describes the experience as “truly incredible.” Her tour visited cities across the country from Seoul to Busan and included special cultural experiences including cooking classes and fashion. Most importantly, she says the group experience “created a lasting community and lifelong friendships.”
