FAQ of students

Q: I am a freshman in Korean Studies. Is it mandatory to take General Introduction to Korea? A: No. It is basically optional. You can decide three courses from General Introduction to Korea, Introduction to Economics, World History, Introduction to International Politics, and Introduction to International Business.
