Way cool bro! Best of luck and take good care of yourself.

Just one advice: watch out for Kim Jong-un. They say he's dangerous.

Thanks, but I'll be fine. :)

Besides, I ain't scared of no North Korean. Especially not this one:

Excitement! That's a great opportunity. I think everyone should spend some time abroad if they manage it. You'll be in SK at the same time I'm in India for 2 months. Will you be able to entertain us with your adventures online while you are away?

I've mentioned this in some DIR threads and in some PMs, but here it is the official RF announcement thread.

I'm going to Korea for a 4 month student exchange!

I'm going to be studying theology at a university in South Korea's capital Seoul, and I'm both excited and intimidated.

Excited, because I'll be experiencing a new culture in which I've never had direct contact. A couple of my friends are half-Korean and they have told me of their time living in Korea, but there is a huge difference between listening to stories and experiencing it for yourself.

Intimidated, because it's possibly going to be rough in parts. Being vegetarian will be a challenge (although not impossible) and I'm going to experience a part of winter there (which I've heard can be pretty rough). But then again, experiencing something new involves both the good and not so good, eh?

I leave later this month and I'm counting down the days.

I met a guy from North Korea as a part of an exchange program at college. Not only did I learn a lot about Korea, I began to realize how much like "fish in water" I was about when I tried to talk about things "over here," and he already knew just about everything I could think of. I also learned the scenery is much more diverse and stunningly beautiful than what is typically portrayed "over here" with jungles that stretch on and on like the fields here, and that the food is even very colorful and tasty looking.
I'm jealous. Have fun and enjoy.

Of course I will. :) I plan on taking a ton of pics and sharing. Doesn't hurt that South Korea has some of the fastest wifi in the world.

Congratulations! I am sure you will have an amazing time and memories that will be cherished for the rest of your life. I have only been outside of the U.S. once, when I went to Japan. That was one of the greatest experiences of my life, something I will value until I die. You will have a great time, I know. I love Korean food, so don't worry about that!
