Once there, the Tritons attended Korean classes in the morning, visited a Jjimjilbang or Korean spa, and experienced a traditional Korean wedding ceremonydressing in traditional clothing as well. They also had the chance to visit the Nambu Night Market, Namsam Seoul Tower, the National Museum of Korea, and Jongmyo Shrine.

Going to another country to participate in a short term program and having to learn about the language and culture was a really great experience, Nuque said. Having to experience different cultures than mine is always refreshing. I enjoyed learning and experiencing the rich Korean culture.

Nuque not only interacted with Korean students but also met peers from China and Mongolia who participated in the Feeling Korea program.
