Awesome choice for a summer program. I will definitely redo it if time allows. Past Review
By Dung V (Accounting, Trinity University) - abroad from 06/21/2016 to 07/21/2016 with
Ewha Womans University: Seoul - International Co-ed Summer College
I learned the reality of life in South Korea that I didn't see from dramas and it was fascinating how innovative the country is.
