My last vlog as a Korean Medical Student at Seoul National University (for now)

[@harubts7]

This is so real. I’m still in gap year for almost 4 years now. Idk if im still able to go to Med school since my parents couldn’t afford the expenses and all. Me being depressed for years.. and honestly you’re such an inspiration to take care of ourselves, mentally and physically

[@hyongie]

Thank you for your kind words and for sharing your experience. Hope you stay happy and healthy at all times and hope all turns out alright!

What is gap year

[@DaniaSamarly]

@@idontwannabeyouanymore9841 a year off school people take when they finish high school (or sometimes after college)

[@Asdfgh12kl]

I also want to be a med student in snu

[@AndreiaMoreira-nl1pp]

Our journey as doctors is not easy and I truly understand how you feel. In fact, dealing with people and taking on the responsibility of caring for them when they are vulnerable is a super challenge. But in case no one has said it: you are doing great!! Trying every day and not letting your dreams fly away is already a victory. We won't always be able to give 100% of ourselves, but if we do 1% every day, we will be able to surpass the basic 100%. Keep going, I'm proud of you!♥

[@hyongie]

Thank you so much for your kind and encouraging words❤️ I will remember them at all times!

Hyongie, it takes a lot of courage to share this with all of us and to realise that in order to care for others, we must not forget our physical and mental health too (even if this is hard as medical students). Know that whatever you decide to do next, we'll be rooting for you! what matters is that you are happy and healthy 🤍 I send you a big hug 🫂and thank you for sharing your journey with us. Please take good care of yourself and eat well ❤‍🩹 Ps: your haircut is really cute and the last part of your video put a huge smile on my face 🤗

I am only a senior in high school but I can really relate to your experience. I'm so sorry that you had to experience all of that but I am happy for you that you made the choice that's best for your health and wellness. I hope that you can have more joy and smiles and laughter during this next new season of your life. 😁❤☺

[@hyongie]

Thank you so much! Your words really mean a lot to me :)

[@_miniiii_08]

Hey I hope you stay safe and well. Recently got results and didn't pass high school finals and I'm going to do it again. It's so frustrating and I guess being a medical student is never easy. Hope all of us have strength and achieve everything we aim for with happiness and laugh. I hope you will be happy everyday in this new year. Hope you have a nice day. 💜

[@hyongie]

Aahh that must be very upsetting :( Really hope everything goes well this year! Fighting!!

[@Vahneinem]

Dear Hyongie, I'm very glad you choose to make this video. It spoke volumes to me about taking care of myself by choosing what I want to do wisely. I too wish to get into medical line one day, but there are times when I have bouts of insecurity. Thank you for showing me that those are normal and fine. I absolutely love you and what you do & the charitable works you participate in. May the Lord Jesus Christ continue to bless you as you venture and give you success in your future endeavours! You got this!

Hyongie dear, do you mean you are taking a gap year off of medical school or something? Anyway, I believe you are making the best choice for you because your personal health comes first 💖💖💪💪 I am planning to go to medical school in the next 3 / 4 years, but currently, lots of challenges, difficulties and obstacles are happening in my life, my family, my friends, everything surrounding me 😔😔…. and watching your video really soothes me because I can see the strength and kind heart you have. Btw, did you used to live in Australia or South Africa, since I detected some accent from you 😅 Finally, seriously, if I do get into my dream medical school one day in the future, I will definitely share the news with you, cuz you also inspired me. 😊

[@hyongie]

Thank you so much! I grew up in South Africa and I'm surprised you picked up the accent haha Hope all goes well for you and your studies! Keep me updated!

[@AyeshaPark]

Hello Hyonie! I wanted to ask that how much minimum percentage i need to get into SNU for MBBS. It will be really helpful if u could plz let me know. I'll be very greatful. Thank u so much ❤❤

[@hyongie]

It really depends on the country, school, other international students who are applying, etc. I would say if your marks and achievements can get you into American IVYs, they can get you into SNUMED as long as you’re completely fluent in Korean..!

[@AnandaVarshniR.P]

Do snu medical thought in English.. Coz I don't know korean.. As I'm indian planing to come there want to know about this...??

Hi dear. I have a question. Well, I'm expecting to get into one of korean SKY universities near future. So, as an international undergraduate student, do I have to do topic exam to study medicine in korea? And also do I have to learn korean before apply to a korean university? Please if you have a little time, pleeeease reply me.❤ Have a nice day!

[@hyongie]

Hi! Not only to you have to get a 6급 in TOPIK, you need to be absolutely fluent to pass the interview! Everything in med school is taught in Korean!

[@pathtofollow3920]

A professor told me that there's no timeline in Medicine, we can take as long as we want. We should take care of ourselves first cuz that's the only way we can take care of others. If this is really for us no matter what life gives us we will make it. I'm rooting for you and your endeavors. Hope you find happiness and do what your heart really wants.

Can I ask you something I am Indian iam preparing myself at neet in home but iam not going to get admission in India because my neet score is low so I have 3 yr gap it's is accepted to get admission in Korea for medicine

[@hyongie]

If you able to get into the top med school in any country, there may be a slight possibility to get into SNU MED given you are fluent in Korean. Otherwise, you will only be admitted for electives or exchange. Korea is a homogenous country with mostly only Koreans, and having non-Korean speaking doctors would be difficult for everyone. So because of this, so far, there have been no non-Korean international students being accepted into Korean Medical universities. Not saying there is no chance of acceptance, but just saying it may be very difficult to be the first. Hope this realistic answer helps :)

[@Mohameddkiouk]

Can i study nursing in snu as undergraduate student ?

I’m not sure about the international nursing admissions so I can’t really answer that question ; try checking their admissions site!
