The War Memorial of Korea, located in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, is Korea's representative military museum and the first war history museum in Korea.

(Interviewee: Lee Na Young/Department of Tourism Management/Korean Student) I think that the best way to make friends in the new semester is to use snacks. In Korea, there is a culture of sharing snacks with other people, so I think sharing and eating candies with others and being friends at the first time. In the process of talking to each other while recommending snacks, I think friendship will deepen a little. I think the first step in making new friends is light snacks, and then find common interests and talk to each other. Talking about MBTI, which is popular in Korea these days, I think

One of the major changes was the inclusion of the East Sea as a term to refer to the body of water between Korea and Japan, alongside the commonly used name, the Sea of Japan. The use of the name "Sea of Japan" has long been a point of contention between Korea and Japan, as it reflects Japan's historical dominance in the region and ignores Korea's own history and perspectiv
(Interviewee: Arthur / IT Department / Senior in University) It’s a little bit difficult to make new friends but I’m trying. Many Korean people are shy, so talking with them is difficult sometimes. My tip on making new friends is, “Don’t be shy.” Because I am too shy to talk with other people, sometimes I want to talk but I’m too shy to do so. So, don’t be shy, it’s not a problem. We don’t have to hesitate to talk to other people. I usually start the conversation by asking questions to them, like what their major is and what they do in Keimyung University. After these, I would probably ask abo
(Interviewee: JongIk Park/KAC IR/Korean Student)My special tip is not to put too much effort on the idea of making new friends because it can cause you unnecessary stress. There are many clubs available on campus, and it will be great to join clubs together that meet the same interests. I usually offer people to grab lunch with me, so we can share conversations and make more connections. I enjoy socializing and love interacting with people. It can be quite difficult at first, but once you gain confidence, you will eventually find your way of socializing easily with others. My message is that y
