These three international students are from China and Uzbekistan, and
they all have one thing in common: They decided to study in Jeonju
University because of their love for Korean culture.
Jin Seol Mae is a Chinese
national who first got
to love Jeonju for its
signature Bibimbap
and traditional hanok
architecture. She wants
to become a Korean
language teacher after
she graduates.
Her friend, Song Ga-ryeo
is also from China, and
she arrived in Jeonju
in 2018. She loves the
Korean cafe culture
which inspired her dream
to open a pretty cafe in
her hometown after she
graduates.
Mohira, on the other
hand, is from Uzbekistan,
who decided to come to
Korea after watching
K-dramas. She wants to
become a fashion model
someday.
