1. Hello, please introduce yourself.
Hi~ I’m Wu Paeyeon majoring in Business administration in SKKU. I’m in charge of the deputy director of International Cooperation Team in Chinese Student Association.
2. What made you to overseas study to Korea?
I wanted to study abroad from the beginning. However, my parents worried because I was an only daughter. So, I continued studying in China. When I was in the second grader in high school, I found an overseas program to Japan, and that time I thought “Ah! Finally, it is the time to go.” But I personally prefer Korea. I was interested in Korean culture and language so, I decided to study in Korea. I learned Korean when I was in the first semester of third grade, and I went to Korean Language Center in the second semester.
