Hello! I am a Vietnamese who went to study in Korea in 2009 in order to get a masters degree at Medical school Chonnam National University. As a newcomer, studying and living at Hwasun hospital. I had better chances to view life in Korea which made me from surprised to surprise.

About the weather, as the first time when I stepped out the airport gate in the middle of February, the scenes around me seemed to be dead. I had just seen trees without leaves, mountains to mountains and at that time, I am getting bored. However, two or three weeks later, the snow fell in Hwasun, scenes were cover with white color of snow. Wow, it was so great! It was the first time that I can touch the snow! It is so cool! And just one month later, everything around me have begun to wake up. Bubs were shooting and flowers have bloomed. The scenes are totally difference from everything I have seen! Sakura, rose, daisy…..from time to time they have bloomed in front of my view. It is totally awesome!

As I have told you, I lived in Hwasun, suburban of Gwangju city, where I could see fields of rice, potato, grapes, garlic, corn, bean, chili… Every day when I walked through them to my lab, I felt like I was living in my country! I have seen hard famer plow on their fields, seed many kind of plants. From there, I could smell fresh rice in the morning and I could hear sound from frogs and insects in the evening. A sound and a smell of countryside are familiar to me and I usually call that “countryside flavor”.

People around me were so kind to me even though they know me is a foreigner. My lab mates were so kind; they helped me to get familiar to living here. Or when I go to market, servants try to help me to find out what I want to buy, and they also explain clearly things I will buy. When I seem to be getting lost on bus, some nice people help me to find out the bus stop that I want to get off! On the whole, people around me were so nice. They were ready to help me I need.

Totally, I felt so great to be in Korea, and I would like to say “thanks” to my Prof because he gave me a chance to study and live there. And to anybody who has read my writing that may non-sense to you but you should try to live at once. Living here, somehow, may be hard for you however I think you‘ll find interested thing here. Just try and enjoy it.
