From 25 to 29 June 2025, 30 senior secondary students participated in the South Korea Economics Study Tour, designed to broaden their understanding of economics beyond textbook theories. This program provided a valuable opportunity to examine the recovery of neighboring Asian economies post-pandemic while exploring South Korea’s unique economic model and rich cultural heritage.
The tour included a range of activities, such as enterprise visits, academic exchanges, and cultural exploration. Highlights included visits to KBS Headquarters, Ewha Womans University, and the Samsung Innovation Museum, where students gained insights into South Korea’s media landscape, higher education system, and technological innovation. Additionally, they explored business practices across sectors such as cultural industries, retail markets, securities trading, and creative technologies, further deepening their understanding of South Korea’s modern economic models.
The study tour encouraged students to approach global economic challenges with a more comprehensive perspective by combining classroom theory with real-world applications. This enriching experience fostered broader perspectives and contributed to their growth as globally minded individuals.
