Being able to obtain this scholarship has allowed me to enjoy life at Seoul National University to the fullest. Not only has it put off leverage in managing finances while studying and reaching academic goals but has given me time to connect with colleagues and befriend acquaintances. It has been an honor to receive these benefits as a scholar and I hope to repay this honor in the future by becoming a figure that can contribute to the greater good.
