After taking Korean for a year, I applied to Ewha-Harvard Summer School Program in Film, and Korean Culture and Language, in the hopes that going to Korea would improve my speaking skills in the language. But this program did so much more. EHSSP helped me gain a profound understanding of a culture I initially thought was very different from my own and allowed me to make friendships that would not have been possible otherwise.
The film and sociology course was an interesting and effective way of combining a new skillset using a camera to...

From training in film and daily Korean language classes to making my own documentary film and having the chance to integrate Korean...
Caleb Lee ’17 Tuition waiver at Ewha Womans University – Summer 2014
Through the generous support of the Korea Institute, I enrolled in two courses at the International Co-ed Summer College at Ewha Womans University in Seoul, South Korea. As it was the first time I would be embarking on a summer trip in a foreign country alone, I was somewhat nervous but also excited to begin the program; not to mention it was my first time returning to the country of most of my extended family since I was five years old.
After having studied the Korean language prior to this summer, I applied to KI’s internship program with the hope that I would have the opportunity to further my language skills while gaining work experience in a field I have long been interested in: journalism. My internship at The Korea Herald and the time I spent in Korea as a whole was not only enriching but made for the most satisfying summer experience I have had as a Harvard student.
At the Korea Herald, I was assigned to the national desk, where I covered...
