This study abroad experience has been one of the most difficult escapades I have ever embarked on, school has been much more difficult then I ever could fathom and took away majority of my time here. With saying that, I am finally updating on what I was able to experience during my first semester. Here is a video from my trip to Busan through my exchange student program CIEE in October. We all gathered and took the KTX (similar to Japan’s extremely fast Shinkansen train), down to the southern port city Busan. We were there to experience the famous international film festival, unfortunately I was only able to see one film. However, the city was absolutely beautiful and was an splendid recess from the intense semester, and allowed for some refreshing reflection of my time spent in South Korea. I hope you enjoy the video!
