In year 2017, I got once in a lifetime's chance to live in Korea for pursuing my Master Degree. At that time, I was so happy because finally I could live in Our Oppa's country (hehe), Korea. It's more wonderful and amazing because I went to Korea not only for living but also for studying. So it's like killing two birds using one stone lol ^^.
So, you might wonder how could i get that chance? Where did I study? and you might also curious about how my study life there. So here in this post I would like to answer all those things.
I got the scholarship from KDI School of Public Policy and Management. It's a graduate school which is linked with one of the well-known research institution in the world, which is Korean Development Institute (KDI). The scholarship's name is Global Ambassador Scholarship (GAS), which is one-year fully funded scholarship for pursuing Master Degree in KDI School. Because it's fully-funded, so it covers all tuition and we got monthly stipend as well. It's really nice, isn't it?
Before we continue, I'd like to share the picture of my beautiful school.

| It's snowy when I came. |
As you can see in the picture, my school is covered with heavy snow because I came around January 2017, so it's still winter and the weather is so freaking cold. As a tropical country human being, i had to make myself get used to Korean's weather at that time hehe.
Anyway, continuing my information about the scholarship, I first knew the information from my friend, then I opened KDI School Website to find out more about the scholarship. In its website, the information is very complete and you could know when you can apply, what document do you need to fulfill, and how to apply the scholarship. So, I highly recommend you to visit the website to see the complete information about the scholarship.
I simply registered on its website, completed all my documents and sent all documents to KDI school. The next stage is, if you pass document selection stage, you will face the interview session either by skype or phone. Gratefully, I passed all this stage so I could go to Korea and share this story to you guys hehe.
And that's how my life in Korea is started. Beginning from this story, I would like to share another fun and interesting story about my Life in Korea to you all. So please wait for the next chapter of my blog. See you ^^
P.S.: You could see all about my life in Korea story in "Life in Korea" label.
