My first visit here was 7 years ago. At that time, I did not know they had a beautiful lake nearby. This time, I came back because I wanted to visit the lake. I like this university logo at the front gate; it’s artistic.

The international students office is completely a mess. My friend received a full scholarship at this school, but when she got there, she was ill- treated. She had to all the things with no help from the office, and they even said they know nothing about her scholarship because it’s another office that decided it ?? This is totally irresponsible. How could an office for international students not know about their students’ profiles? After that, they didn’t provide clear information about the course which leads my friend to a bunch of problem !

I eat in the canteen there. And so delicious food and so cheap. When i eat, i can see a mountain. I'm not sure what the name of the mountain. And i meet good gut there. He's say you can climb the mountain and in the mountain have a like a temple there. In seoul national university is one of best place to take a picture. When its winter you can play with snow in the park.
