You are in a whole different culture and will be surrounded by plenty of new things. There will be A LOT of new foods you have never seen before and habits that you are not used to. Try them out. PLEASE try them out. Yes, it may be a bit odd but you might enjoy it.   <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"670\" height=\"446\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/kakao-friends-ottogi-5.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/kakao-friends-ottogi-5.jpg 670w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/kakao-friends-ottogi-5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/kakao-friends-ottogi-5-451x300.jpg 451w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 670px) 100vw, 670px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Second of all, be social! You will meet people from <strong>ALL OVER THE WORLD<\/strong> while you are there. I have friends from Germany, France, Chile, New Zealand, and lots of other places now through my experiences! Plus, it can be fun to do things with other people! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image is-style-rounded\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/KAKAO-FRIENDS-2021-0_shop2_173609-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41\" width=\"438\" height=\"438\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/KAKAO-FRIENDS-2021-0_shop2_173609-1.jpg 780w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/KAKAO-FRIENDS-2021-0_shop2_173609-1-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/KAKAO-FRIENDS-2021-0_shop2_173609-1-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/blogs.uml.edu\/seoul-south-korea-2021\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/184\/2021\/12\/KAKAO-FRIENDS-2021-0_shop2_173609-1-768x768.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 438px) 100vw, 438px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Third of all, be nice to the locals! This one is very obvious but Korean people might seem a bit stern, especially the older generation, but they are very sweet!
