🚨 STUDYING IN KOREA MAY GET DIFFICULT! 🇰🇷
Starting next semester, Korean immigration may introduce new requirements for student visas.
📌 Main changes:
🏦 1-3 months of bank account turnover required
📄 E-Visa application will be restricted for some universities
🔍 Financial documents will be checked more strictly
⸻
⚠️ Why is this change happening?
Recently, due to a sharp increase in cases of entering Korea with a student visa and then working illegally, immigration is tightening controls.
The reason is:
• Money must be deposited in the bank account in advance
• Documents will be checked more carefully
• Departure via e-visa may be restricted

📊 Who will have difficulty?
❌ Students with low language proficiency
❌ Those who want to go through vocational training
❌ Those who plan to go through E-Visa
⸻
✅ Who has a high chance?
✔️ Those with TOPIK 3+ or IELTS 5.5+
✔️ Those who have applied through a bachelor's or master's program
✔️ Those who have chosen the right university
⸻
📌 The most important recommendation:
If you are planning to study in Korea, do not leave your documents until the last day.
With the right university and the right documents, the chances of getting a visa are much higher.
