Scholars trying to go to South Korea: COVID-19 Testing Requirements

 Hello everyone! Welcome to my blog. :)

We all know that the pandemic has started last year, 2020, and it did affect us all, including us, scholars.

I have been awarded this scholarship during the peak spread of the COVID-19. I thought that I would still be able to go to South Korea last August 6, 2020, given the fact that I was a scholar of the Korean Government and that they invited me to go there through the Invitation Letter they have sent me.

As things got worse, I was not able to go. I took a six(6) month Leave of Absence.

So, once the student visa ban is lifted, this is what we are going to do or comply - the COVID-19 Testing Requirements


That's it. :)
