The day after my arrival in Korea I had to check in at my dormitory...
Back story, I heard that Yonsei University's Exchange Dormitories are really difficult to get if you have bad wifi so be careful! I was lucky to use the internet from my internship this summer which was faster than my house wifi to register for the dorm as fast as possible.
So this upcoming Fall 2023 Semester I will be staying at SK Global House at Yonsei University. For business students, I believe it will take around 10-20 min walk from the dorm to the business building lecture halls.
Of course, my friend came with me on the joy ride, but after checking in I didn't plan on staying at the dorm just yet. Me and my friend will be staying in 2 different hotels until the 28th so we can experience Seoul, especially Myeondong fully.
All in all, we had lunch at the famous tiktok spot: Myeongdong Kyoja, which served only 4 types of unique dishes. Then we shopped around Myeongdong Street and bought a few skincare products from OliveYoung, clothes from A-Land, and necessities from the 12-Story Daiso. After shopping we walked back to the hotel to rest and went out around 8:00 pm for dinner, we found a place named KKANBU, which served fried chicken ("was rllllyyyy CRSIPY!!!"). note: At this time Korean people are all outside and drinking so don't be surprised by the number of stores that serve beer.
