Share your story Ha Trang (self-sufficient students studying and working in Korea)
As a fan of Korean arts, I had dreamed of studying and living in South Korea since childhood. After high school, I asked my parents to let me study and work there. My parents were ordinary public servants, so our family had to borrow from several sources. After completing enrolment and settling in, my fairly good Korean helped me find a job at a nearby fast-food restaurant. The owner was easy-going and welcoming, so I quickly adapted to life there. The income was quite stable: after covering daily living costs, I could send my family VND 15–20 million each month. This was considerably more than the earnings of friends who had chosen to go to South Korea as migrant workers.
