Korean Language School and Entertainment Agency in the Cafe Street of Hongdae Station
by: Janny Ahn - AustraliaProgram: NGO Operating K-Pop Entertainment & Korean Languge SchoolAcopia is a Korean language school officially recognized by the Seoul Metropolitan Office of Education. At the same time, it operates as an entertainment agency. It offered exactly what I was looking for: a perfect experience combining Korean language education and K-pop trainee programs.


Best time of my life!
by: Zuzanna Andersen - PolandProgram: NGO Operating K-Pop Entertainment & Korean Languge SchoolIn ACOPIA, I was responsible for making at least one video or/and article per week. On Monday's I was looking for art galleries, that I can visit and write about their current exhibitions. I had to make a whole plan: where to go, what to see, find most important parts of the exhibition and look for information about the paintings/sculptures and so on. If I collected all the necessary information, that allowed me to visit the gallery next day, I was ready to work, and the work was way easier on Thursday ;) Of course I was not doing this all by myself, my colleague Sabrina, a Swiss Intern was doing this with me. We shared the task between each other and work always went smoothly. On Tuesday's shift I was required to go out and visit that art gallery I chose on Monday. I had to make photos, collect information about the paintings, sculptures, that I photographed. If videos were allowed I was also shooting short videos. If I had everything that was needed to write and article or/and video I was prepared for my Thursday's shift. On Thursday with all collected information I could sit down with my laptop and start writing and article and make a video. After 3 hours of work, usually I was done with all of my work, but sometimes 3 hours were too short so I had to postpone it, and finish it all on Monday. Sometimes on Saturday I was coming to the office, and writing articles about Korea. Sightseeing, travel information, education, kpop and just articles about what is currently happening in Korea (like Cherry Blossom is coming or what to wear during winter in Korea) :) It was great to have that scheduled work because no one had to tell me what to do. I knew exactly what I have to do to complete my weekly tasks. Coming to Korea for 6 months obligate me to attend the univeristy. While applying to ACOPIA, they immediately suggested me the language school they cooperate with. Of course, I signed up to that one :) In the morning I was a student learning Korean at the University, and at the afternoon I was an Intern in a Kpop Entertainment. Being an Intern in ACOPIA required me to stay in their share house during my internship. I didn't complain since the house is located near Hongdae, bus stops are 2 minutes away from home, and subway 10 minutes. Many convenient stores around the house, cool grocery store on the corner and even 2 cafes almost in the building of the ACOPIA house. In the house, I lived in quadruple room. I was lucky to have a lower bed ㅎㅎㅎ my roommates in the room were Japanese girls, on a Trainee Program. Even though the communication had been hard sometimes because of the language barrier. They speak Korean well and I don't but just YET, I had a really good relationship with them and I am gonna miss them so bad. But in the house were also another Intern from Mongolia, and surprisingly she was born in Poland! What a coincidence! I had a really good experience in working at ACOPIA. As a very ambitious and creative person, ACOPIA gave me the opportunity to develop my inner skills. ACOPIA's staff and of course our CEO were always helpful for me. During my work, and outside of the office I always could count on them. Even when I got into the Entertainment as an Actor, my boss offered me help, if I will ever need it one. So even though I won't be an intern anymore, I can count on him in the future. That's great to have that people by your side, and make contacts and acquaintances while you live in a foreign country. I am glad I could have an opportunity to work in ACOPIA. I could see the other side of kpop entertainment, where young passionate people work for they dreams, an environment that I will also got a chance to work as an artist. I am very grateful and full of joy. I met people from all around the world, I got an experience in a field I have never dreamed of to work in, I developed myself in many different ways and what is more important, due to the internship, my dreams become a reality, and this was my goal, I reached. I'm so proud of myself and cannot wait to come back to Korea in April this year and start to work in my dream field.

Great Experience!
by: Kira Hermansen - DenmarkProgram: NGO Operating K-Pop Entertainment & Korean Languge SchoolHi, this is Kira from Denmark. I have been an intern at Asia Hope Camp Organization (ACOPIA) for two months where I have learned a lot. For the past two months I have been a part of Asia Hope Camp Organization (ACOPIA) staff where I have had the opportunity to write articles and film videos for ACOPIA’S Youtube channel, about things that I find interesting about the Korean culture. This has been a great chance to experience and write about a lot of interesting things. My fluency in Danish has also helped me with social media marketing where I have been promoting ACOPIA through my private SNS and through their own Facebook page. I have experienced a lot in the time I have spent here in Korea therefor I have made great memories while working in a different culture. I have also become more understanding and gotten a lot of knowledge about the Korean culture which has helped me with living here. It has also been a fun experience to interact with the other interns everyone is so sweet and helpful. It is great to be able to talk to others who has more knowledge as an intern and can help you with a lot of different things. Korean and the Asian culture in general is very different from what culture I am used to in Denmark, therefor I had a lot to get used to. Thankfully I have been here once before in 2018 which helped me not to get a big culture shock. ACOPIA has also helped me get a better understanding of the Korean culture and I have had a great experience getting to know this amazing culture here in Korea. My trip to Korea and working as an intern at ACOPIA has made me more independent. I have learned to take care of myself while being in a new country which I found very healing and freeing from my daily life in Denmark. When I get home to my family and friends I will feel like a different person because I have had this great opportunity where I could self-develop and challenge myself.
