Hello, Everyone! Welcome to my blog. As you all know, we, the 2020 GKS-G SCHOLARS were still in the Philippines due to COVID-19 Pandemic. Most of us resigned their respective jobs already after knowing that we were selected as scholars for the final round. I was one of those who resigned immediately, in preparation for South Korea.🇰🇷 Sadly, I had no job in the past 6 months. I relied on my online tutorial services and music serenades to live. Now, the long wait has ended. The time has come. The Korean Embassy in the Philippines now allows GKS Scholars to process D4 Visas. Only GKS. No EPS Workers and other regular student visas. We are very thankful for this exemption!~♡♡♡
