1. What is your impression of CUK and its Vision of becoming and International Hub?
As a graduate of the Catholic University of Korea, I am very proud of the school’s progress and I expect our university to be one of the most prestigious and recognizable university in north-east Asia.
2. How is it like working for GEO global lounge? Any expectations?
It is a great opportunity working on campus using foreign languages. I am impressed that students are willing to speak in English even if it is not familiar to them. I recommend making full use of the Global Lounge to all enrolled students.
3. What are your likes and dislikes?
In general, I do not enjoy outdoor activities; I prefer swimming to hiking or climbing. I love animals except anthropoids, and I also like planting and doing calligraphy.
4. What keeps you busy during your spare time?
I rarely have spare time because I am working 8 hours a day and preparing for a civil service exam. I usually try to memorize English words or Chinese Characters during my free time.
5. What do you like most about Korea?
While studying abroad for a year, I realized that I am a person who has a patriotic spirit. I can proudly say that I love everything in Korea.
