2 months Marketing Internship in Seoul

Many thanks to the lovely people at Korea Gap Year for making my dream of an internship in Korea come true! They quickly matched me with a company that was a great fit. I learned so much about Korean culture from my colleagues, and I spent the weekends exploring Seoul and traveling with my new-found friends. KGY messaged me regularly to make sure everything was going well. I feel like they genuinely wanted me to have an enjoyable stay and make many memories. If you're thinking about doing an internship in Korea, I highly recommend getting in touch with the amazing KGY team! Everyone at the office was so welcoming and passionate about learning languages! So they started teaching me useful Korean expressions each day, and in return I taught them some German phrases. I remember coming home from work and surprising my Korean roommate with all the new words I learned.

I would like to thank GapYear for help in finding a place for the internship. I could address to them in any question and problem. And they immediately tried to help me. In addition, they helped us not only before the internship, but also during it. Thanks to them, I got a great opportunity to go to Korea for an internship, for 2 months, which I had long dreamed of. Therefore, if you dream to go to Korea, and also get some experience, I advise you to turn to GapYear. They will certainly help you.

Best experience in my life!

I decided to join the Beauty/SkinCare Internship in Seoul because Korea is globally recognized as a leader in the beauty and skincare industry. From the very beginning, this program felt like a valuable and rare opportunity to experience K-beauty firsthand, not just as a consumer but as someone working within the industry. Throughout the internship, I learned extensively about skincare product development, ingredient trends, marketing strategies, and the high standards that Korean companies maintain. The hands-on tasks and exposure to real business practices helped me better understand how innovative and fast-paced this industry truly is. Beyond professional growth, I was inspired by the passion and dedication of the people I worked with. This internship greatly expanded my knowledge, strengthened my interest in the beauty industry, and became an unforgettable experience that exceeded my expectations.
