"BESTIE program" is conducted by the Office of International Affairs (OIH) at Chungbuk National University, and it involves planning, promoting, and operating internationalization events and promoting Korean culture to foreign exchange students.

During program, I took on administrative and operational responsibilities, which involved organizing cultural experiences and planning and executing events. This also included facilitating smooth communication in both English and Korean during the event.

Korean Intensive Summer Language Program "KISLP" offered by American Councils at Chungbuk National University in South Korea is designed for U.S. undergraduate and graduate students who have completed at least one year of Korean language study. Program comprises 140 hours of classroom instruction focusing on Korean language, culture. Additionally, participants are paired with university peers for conversation practice in Korean and joint cultural activities.

During program, I had opportunity to teach Korean in English, which greatly enhanced my Korean-English translation and interpretation skills.
