I learned Taekwondo, the history of hangul (the Korean writing system) and how to make kimchi (salt and fermented vegetables).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our first adventure was visiting the Gyeongbokgung Palace, the city\u2019s largest palace, where I got to wear traditional Korean clothing, hairstyles and accessories.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I chose to dress in a dark red skirt and a white top with golden accents. My hair was styled in a french braid with pearls and a daenggi\u2014a traditional Korean ribbon.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Although I feared not getting along with my travel buddies, they helped me become comfortable in the unfamiliar.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As the youngest of the group, I quickly became known as the tea forager, pork cutlet enthusiast and bright-eyed cafe hopper with a tendency to dwell when something caught my fancy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our budding friendship was forged by getting lost on public transportation, compiling funds to eat new foods and exchanging clothes to make the best outfits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The most enjoyable experience we had was attending a K-pop concert, where we saw Le Sserafim, a South Korean girl group, perform and complete a Q&amp;A session. The song <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Perfect Night <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">became the anthem of the trip.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Studying abroad also allowed me to live independently for the first time. I learned how to take care of myself, budget, and be organized.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The program culminated in a final project that required students to analyze a singular characteristic of South Korea.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As I scrolled through my camera, my professor helped me realize a common theme across my photos\u2014Seoul\u2019s convenient user interface\u2014which became the focus of my project. Like an app on your phone, the city is designed to be easy and pleasant to live in.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Through a video-essay, I highlighted simple, thoughtful features of the city that make life better for people.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Reserved seating is available for pregnant, disabled and elderly people. Crosswalks are lit for people looking down at their phone. Street signs and menus are translated for tourists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even the subways are designed with people in mind. Stations are brightly-lit and have shops, vibrant murals and underground gardens, creating a warm atmosphere.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traveling to South Korea was an enriching, unforgettable experience. I learned about a new culture and myself. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><i>Click<\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/mdcthereporter.us19.list-manage.com\/subscribe?u=4fc6146412415baee32007fd7&amp;id=b5cd3712dc\"><i> here<\/i><\/a><i> to subscribe to our bi-weekly newsletter, The Hammerhead.
