Ewha Language Center - Miya Mayuko
Miya Mayuko (23) takes classes at the Ewha Language Center in the morning and works at a Korean company in the afternoon. She doesn’t have much time to study or get together with her classmates. On the other hand, she makes extra money, and working allows her to learn Korean faster.
Mayuko, who has a work visa, came to Korea to work in a Korean venture company. She is balancing her work with her language study, and confesses that she can learn Korean much faster than others thanks to her Korean boyfriend who works in the same office. We followed her to see how she manages to balance her career and studies. |
