Already recovered from the tough weekend? This week, we are going to visit Seodaemun Prison and The War Memorial Hall to see a living reminder of Korea’s modern history. Beside the sad history, we will also explore Itaewon, the little-international-town. You will see diverse nationalities and cultures and shop along in the town.
And, be excited! You will also have a chance to watch the Korean cultural martial art Taekwondo (태권도). Additionally, we will not stay guesthouse this time. Instead, we will go to jjimjilbang (찜질방) – Korean spa. This is the place where you can enjoy spa, shower, and sauna but also sleep overnight at an affordable price. It is a popular getaway for Korean families, couples and friends.
Can’t wait to see you all! Don’t miss the weekend!
Unless you’re brand new to IAESTE you’ve probably heard of the IAESTE Dance. It happens at nearly all IAESTE events around the world and involves a routine that can be performed to practically any music! On 27 July we’re aiming for as many countries as possible to do the IAESTE Dance and to film it to share on this website.
We may not be able to beat a Guinness World Record for the most people performing a dance at the same time, but we’ll certainly break the record for most people doing the IAESTE Dance on the same day! If you’d like to join us on 27 July, either by joining up with a pre-organised event, or simply by filming you and your friends doing the IAESTE Dance, you’re in the right place. We’ll post details here of where all the events are taking place, along with details of how to submit your videos! Meanwhile, join our Facebook event to receive all the updates!

After feeling some atmosphere of Joseon Dynasty, it’s time to enjoy Silla! Gyeongju was the capital of Silla Dynasty with the long history of millennium. Since the ancient relics are such an integral part of the area, the whole city has been designated as a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage under the name ‘Gyeongju Historic Areas’. As such, Gyeongju is often referred to as a ‘roofless museum’.
There are the royal tombs lies harmoniously side by side, and you can also find the beautiful temple ‘Bulguk Temple’ and ‘Seokguuram’ Budda grotto with gentle smile.
We highly recommend this weekend event. It absolutely one of the highlights of our summer reception program.
You cannot miss Gyeongju when you are in Korea!
