Immersive Language Program in Seoul

The first highlight of the stay is the accomodation. A room in Dangsan with a stunning view of the city and the Han river, with access to the rooftop. The stay included a kitchen which I shared with amazing flatmates who became friends, as well as an ensuite bathroom and modern gym. Just a short trip away was my internship, which was thoroughly rewarding and insightful, giving me an experience I won't forget on the beautiful Yonsei University campus. The Seoul co-ordinator team were also a highlight, all very friendly, supportive, and helpful. The events were exciting and affordable, and covered many of the best spots in Seoul.

The beyond academy programme itself is absolutely amazing. The staff and locals are all very friendly and want to help you in any way they can. The events planned during the trip were a nice mixture of touristy and non-touristy events so there is something for everyone. I would highly recommend choosing the Seoul location as it is a gorgeous place to live with so much culture. In terms of the actual work placement, I would recommend that everyone ask questions to your host company before choosing them and don’t be afraid to ask for a different placement in order to make sure you actually get placed in a field that you want to be in.

I had a wonderful time in Seoul which opened my eyes to a whole different side of the world and felt supported and encouraged to experience everything by beyond during my internship, getting to see everything that Seoul had to offer and more
