Hi, Leslie! We still miss your lovely smile a lot😍 Thank you for saying hello to RK staffs every morning. How kind of you! Since you recommended RK to your friends, we were able to get to know another awesome student, Jessica. We appreciated that a lot. Also, we were so impressed by your passion for K-POP and it's very happy to hear that you were satisfied with the K-POP vocal class:) Keep on studying Korean and we hope to see you again! XOXO🥰
Hi! :) I've just finished spending 1 month at Rolling Korea and I had to come back to comment on this video. One night while discussing Rolling Korea, a group of 6 of us discovered that we had all watched this very video and this video is the reason why we all decided to go to Rolling Korea! This video is truly helpful and it convinced me to choose Rolling Korea and so many other people who I now call friends. Thank you for sharing this video and for all the helpful information ❤
@@florinecyrus8466 Hi 😃I'd say it depends on whether you use the accommodation provided by Rolling Korea or if you find your own. I found my own accommodation, so just for Rolling Korea I paid 1448000 won (this includes registration fees, course books & activity credits). I highly suggest going to the Rolling Korea website and at the top of the page you can get a consultation. You will input how long you want to attend the school, whether you need accommodation etc. Then they will email you back with a quote detailing all the costs involved. Hope this helps ! ☺
I studied at Rolling Korea for a month last year in May and it was such an amazing experience! ☺I also almost booked with EF but the communication was really poor/unprofessional and price was insaneee!!
Omg girl 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 A teacher told me to watch this video cause u mentioned me , so I came here !!!! Im literally crying 🥹🥹🥹 you were the best student ever and I miss you so much ❤️
Hi! First I wanna say that I love your video! I am a student at RK now and I can not agree with you more! It’s amazing here. Everyone is so nice and sweet and ready to help with literally everything ❤I’m doing the K-pop course too and I love it :) (the timetable for that one is a little bit different now tho). And I am also staying in one of their accommodations (a mini-studio for me). It is really mini but compact and I am not complaining because it’s the one that is free (fully included in the course price) 😌👌🏻 Well anyways that’s my short story of my only just beginning adventure here. Thank you for sharing yours 🫶🏻 I think it’s really helpful for people who are thinking about going to Korea so they can have good expectations and make good decisions. Also love your vibe. Just wanted to put that out there :) Disclaimer: even though I said I couldn’t agree more, that was just about the RK part. I have no personal experience with EF. I have looked into them before I found RK, but based on personal interest and having read and heard some things I absolutely don’t regret my decision of choosing RK over EF. Ps. Sorry for the long comment even though I’m making it longer by saying this 🫠 just letting people out there know: I acknowledge it, but you are the one reading this long ass comment. So don’t be coming at me :)
Thank you💜 and thank you so much for sharing! I love hearing about people’s experiences! I hope you have a wonderful time! Stay warm 😊 p.s ty for letting me know about the changes i figured as much so i’ll always mention that the schedule is subject to change!
@@Leeikr It’s really various. I myself am 19, most people are around / halfway 20, but there are also some people who are in their 30’s and maybe older. But I feel like everyone gets along really well and easily, regardless of age :)
I'm on my mom's acc but wtv, I really want to take the KPOP COURSE so could you make a video explaining how it works! This video was very helpful tyyy ♥️
This was so helpfull omg, specially cause Im on te edge of choosing& booking. I can not find many video's about RK so I am so glad you made this video. Im Interesting in te K-pop course too. Is It okay If u dont attend one? What where your dance classes time again, 20:00-21:10? :) Do u receive a certifacte at the end with RK, or only If you pass the ending test?
Yes it’s completely fine if you don’t attend a class no worries the kpop dance classes were on (mon 8-9:10pm & thur 6:50-8pm) and they give you a certificate after completing your program
Hi, I'm doing research for my sister since she's planning on going to Rolling Korea soon. I just want to ask about the amount of diversity among the students. We're black, and I know it can be hard being in a place like Seoul because of things like racism and I'm really worried for her.
When i was there the demographics we mostly from parts of europe, india, japan, and some from north america, the best i can say is just by being a foreigner, one will most likely get looks, exercise a normal amount of caution a tip i saw was stay on main streets, most people mind their business and overall the country is pretty safe, they only places i know actively discriminate are clubs in certain areas, lmk if u need any more info and i’ll do my best to help💜 hope this helps, safe travels for your sister!
Im so glad i found this video, its helped with my decision making. Im going to pull the trigger and book a trip with RK! May i ask what did you do for housing instead of using RK? Annnnd what was the makeup of the people there with you? (Age, country, gender) Thanks! I just subscribed and am going to do a deep of your videos❤
ty!! yea i got you, so the last 2 times i've booked an airbnb, when i was there for RK the airbnb was an all women thing, the room was just the bed and a desk. There was a communal kitchen, laundry and bathrooms. I wasn't there much but the girls seemed to be in their 20s + and the only ones i actually talked to were from the US and Spain It was budget friendly about 500 usd/month but comfort wise it sucked. & last time a booked a full apartment (it was more expensive but i used credit card points and it significantly reduced the price)
your videos are so helpful 🥲🫶 i was just wondering tho when you were filling out your registration form for RK how many days in advance did you schedule your check in? i’m currently filling out my form and the check-in duration part is kinda confusing me lol😅
Hey! Wow your Video was so helpful. Actually researching right now which one to go with (EF and Rolling Korea). However, I'm still thinking whether searching accommodation by myself or staying at their RK residence. Where were you staying? I'm really curious about that.
I was looking into rolling Korea and then when I wanted to say where to stay they told me I can only stay in a singe room or two person room because the other ones are only for woman I am a woman tf
First of all thank you this video helped me a lot to get more information and now I have some questions. I'm going to Korea for about 6 months starting from this summer. First of all what is the age range between the students or what is the average age like and in the residency you stayed in? I'm gonna be 19 by the time I get there but I'm worried that most people will be a lot older than I am. I think I will go to Rolling Korea and I've also been wondering if I will have any problems with keeping up in class because I have zero Korean skills. My last question would be which of the two locations you liked more?
Hi! The students ranged from late teens 17~ to late 30s. I stayed in an Airbnb so im not sure how old the people there were. Honestly i was also worried but i ended up clicking with girls in their early 20s (im 19) and we never felt the age difference it think its just about they type of people that you vibe with! +Edit When you get there they will test you and place you in the class best suited to you, at first I did struggle a bit to keep up because we build on previous knowledge and I got there about 2 weeks into the new books but I got the hang of it after some time, if you ever need help you can always ask the teacher they are always glad to assist! And I preferred Rolling Korea 100%
People told me that the host family was a 50/50, you could get a good one or a terrible one. I felt a similar way when I first went and chose not to risk it with a family and ended up making great friends in school.
Thank you so much!! I leave for Korea in August of this year!! I will be going through Rolling Korea language school. I will be doing the semi intensive course. Do you know what the scheduling was like for that course by chance? I don't recall getting an email or anything. I think I saw a schedule of 4 days a week for that but don't quite know for sure.
Hello! I have a couple questions since I'm thinking of signing up for rolling korea. What is there to do outside of the program (concerts, events in seoul etc.) and do you have to be a certain age to go to any events outside of what the school provides you on your own time? :>
yea there is a bunch of stuff to do outside of RK as for concerts can always search whos playing a show nearby, the Dongdaemun Design Plaza usually has cool exhibits too, these are some of the many options, and to my knowledge the only thing i know has an age restriction is bars and clubs.
What about accommodation? I mean that is very important factor which determines one's experience. Is it clean, is food provided or so... Do you know if I can find any real negative opinions?
Thank you so much for the video~~ I noticed you said you stayed in the residence at EF. I am planning on doing residence also, do you think it is a good idea? Did you like it? And since I am a male do you think they will give me a male roommate because I will feel so much more comfortable with one
Hi, I had some questions about your experience with EF and RK (I hope to go to one or both soon in the future) . How did airport transportation work? Did someone greet you when you go off the plane in Korea? . Are you able to choose a timeframe for your stay? Do they tell you what's going on in the school at the time so you don't schedule a time right during exams? How do you know your timing is right to where they're at the introductory/beginning classes? Or, is that even a thing to begin with? . For RK, were home stays an option for residency?
Hi, [airport transfer] With EF I was in contact with someone for the airport pick up so I knew where to go but for the hotel pick up to go back to the airport I got nothing so when I saw a taxi I just went outside and asked who they were picking up And for RK they told me which exit to go to and I had a scheduled pick up time about an hour after landing and when I was picked up from my Airbnb the front desk called me to let me know that the driver was outside. [Time Frame] For both you can choose when you want to go EF has weekly testing so I don’t think that matters too much RK tests usually land at the end of the month. They don’t outright tell you what’s going on but I’m sure they’ll inform you if you ask For both, you are tested when you arrive and that will determine which class you will be put in. [Residence] RK does offer a hotel and many student do reside there. It’s in the same area and I believe it’s about a 15-20 minute walk from the school I hope this info helps!
@@oneofthesapiens It did help, thanks! I forgot to ask, do RK teachers/staff only speak to you in Korean? I know the EF teachers will only speak to you in Korean, but do you know if EF customer service only speaks Korean, too? With EF did you do a host family? How long was the EF/RK school building open for?
I don’t know if this is a weird question sorry if it is 😅 but how old are you? I want to go this summer and I would be 16/17 depending on when I go so I was wondering if it is better if i go to rolling or EF, I want to go to rolling but it seems like more adults are there and I don’t know if I would be the only minor or younger person?
hey! its not weird at all i’m 19! When I was in RK there was some minors too, there is a little bit of everything, just choose whatever you think will be best for you!
@@oneofthesapiensheey, its been a while since you posted this video so i dont know if you will response, but i really appreciate this video and wanted to ask, so if you want to undertake the summer program, they says that you need to be max. 17, but you were 19, so does it matter or not, if you know something about it. sorry english is not my first language💖
I‘m a little bit in a tricky situation… I‘m a 22 year old Swiss citizen! The army pays my fee for EF completely, but doesn‘t pay anything for RK cause they‘re not Switzerland-based…. Do you think it would be worth it to save up to do RK or go for EF and get it paid?😅
i think it depends on why you are going, if you really want to learn the language, i personally learned way more with RK because of how they had their curriculum structured. but hey that's a cool opportunity, it's up to you
didnt know rolling korea existed and now im contracted on 9 months with EF starting in few months 👁👄👁i wanna swap to rolling korea after this video but i alrdy payed the fees they dont give back in EF :(
check their cancellation policy in the brochure on page 49 if you want to make the switch, but hey it’s cool that you get to have that experience! have fun and make the best out of it! 💜
Hey 👋🏻 I was in Korea last October for 4 weeks with EF and I had the time of my life🥰 I loved the teacher, my fellow students and the whole program☺️ I don’t have any experience with RK but EF was absolutely fine for me!🙏🏼 In the end it doesn’t really matter with which organization you’ll go to Korea.. It’s all about how you’ll spend your time and how you make the most out of it💜 I wish you a great time and If you have any concerns or questions about EF Korea you can ask☺️
yea some of the activities were whole field trips and i believe the accommodation they had while i was there was a hotel. I don’t have much info on these aspects tho
@@oneofthesapiensthank you so much!! I sent in a thingy for a consultation but they haven’t responded yet 😭 I’m thinking about calling instead- should I?💀
I have a friend who went through EF and she wasn't really impressed and said she didn't learn as much as she thought she would for what she paid. I have been wanting to go abroad and do a language learning experience. Unfortunately, I don't really see the age range. Is Rolling Korea just for youth or young adults/adults as well?
When I was there the EF schedule would alternate between morning and afternoon classes so I'd say RK gave me more free time since it was a fixed morning schedule. However this also depends on which program (reg, adv,kpop etc) you are doing and if you do any of the activities.
when i got my quote that included hotel stay it was about ₩7,000,000 which came out to about $5000 with the exchange rate at the time (about 1 usd=1400 won) i removed the hotel and that is when the price dropped to what my final quote was. lmk if this info was helpful :)
@@oneofthesapiensohhh i see!! well i can’t do that but thank u for recommending them because i’m trying to register now (except i’ve been given invoice to pay though ur video said i can pay two weeks before trip so i’m figuring it out) BUT yes ty ty 💗
hii! i was wondering if i could ask some questions about rolling korea! im going summer 2025 and im just really worried that im gonna get scammed or something. lmk if i can dm on insta or elsewhere :)
i’m in the middle of watching but girl that’s so helpful! my only issue is prices of my trip are the same for both RK and EF, but for EF I can get 20% discount..which makes EF way cheaper but somehow RK seems more trustable..🥲
Hey!!! I also went to seoul with EF and eventhough I definitely think that EF has its problems, it was still a great time, made many forever friends and I learned a lot!!! If you're still going with EF I think it will be an enjoyable time :)

So I’m a little to this video 🥺 but for Rolling Korea, did you have to pay for your own flight or did they book it for you?
I booked all my flights :)

Hi, I had some questions about your experience with EF and RK (I hope to go to one or both soon in the future)
. How did airport transportation work? Did someone greet you when you go off the plane in Korea?
. Are you able to choose a timeframe for your stay? Do they tell you what's going on in the school at the time so you don't schedule a time right during exams? How do you know your timing is right to where they're at the introductory/beginning classes? Or, is that even a thing to begin with?

Hi,
[airport transfer]
With EF I was in contact with someone for the airport pick up so I knew where to go but for the hotel pick up to go back to the airport I got nothing so when I saw a taxi I just went outside and asked who they were picking up
And for RK they told me which exit to go to and I had a scheduled pick up time about an hour after landing and when I was picked up from my Airbnb the front desk called me to let me know that the driver was outside.
[Time Frame]
For both you can choose when you want to go
EF has weekly testing so I don’t think that matters too much
RK tests usually land at the end of the month. They don’t outright tell you what’s going on but I’m sure they’ll inform you if you ask
For both, you are tested when you arrive and that will determine which class you will be put in.
[Residence]
RK does offer a hotel and many student do reside there. It’s in the same area and I believe it’s about a 15-20 minute walk from the school
I hope this info helps!

@@oneofthesapiensthank you so much!! I sent in a thingy for a consultation but they haven’t responded yet 😭 I’m thinking about calling instead- should I?💀
I have a friend who went through EF and she wasn't really impressed and said she didn't learn as much as she thought she would for what she paid. I have been wanting to go abroad and do a language learning experience. Unfortunately, I don't really see the age range. Is Rolling Korea just for youth or young adults/adults as well?
I mostly saw adults, the youngest in my class was 17 and the oldest was 40+
how much free time did you have at RK?
Heyyy did these prices include flight tickets? Or did you purchase them ur self?
usually with things like this you have to book your own flights, but you can ask them for assistance, (likely for a fee)
@@oneofthesapiens makes sense. So I’m assuming the transfer fee is taking you from the airport and too your destination?
Would you say ef or rolling Korea has more freedom/freetime?
When I was there the EF schedule would alternate between morning and afternoon classes so I'd say RK gave me more free time since it was a fixed morning schedule. However this also depends on which program (reg, adv,kpop etc) you are doing and if you do any of the activities.
Hey just wondering, is there any possible way to make tuition cheaper?
Heyy if I’m booking the intensive course. The class would end 4pm but most activities are during the morning so am I not able to attend them?
Honestly since it’s been a year I can’t give and exact answer, it would depend on the even schedule they have for the month
no way bruh my quote for right came to like $6500 for the EXACT same course, and apparently with a 25% discount
also how’d you get RK to be so cheap? with price list they sent me it’s about 6000$ for 8 weeks for cheapest course as well, so much more than u paid-
when i got my quote that included hotel stay it was about ₩7,000,000 which came out to about $5000 with the exchange rate at the time (about 1 usd=1400 won) i removed the hotel and that is when the price dropped to what my final quote was. lmk if this info was helpful :)
@@oneofthesapiensohhh i see!! well i can’t do that but thank u for recommending them because i’m trying to register now (except i’ve been given invoice to pay though ur video said i can pay two weeks before trip so i’m figuring it out) BUT yes ty ty 💗
Yea of course and feel free to share if you notice any other differences between your process and mine. Have a safe trip! :)
@@oneofthesapiens if you removed the hotel where did u stay?
@@trinideemcconnell7186 hostels are way cheaper and convenient
hiii what would you do on your free time??
Id go on walks, to restaurants, cafes, bookstores etc. stuff like that
@@oneofthesapiens tyy for replying , i wanna plan to go but idk when 😭
Which course do you think had more school organized activities etc…
i didn’t participate in any so unfortunately i don’t have that info. i just know that rk has biweekly activities!
What other school were u going to when you were doing Rolling Korea
I was in Record Factory for music production
what are the age ranges?? like Is it 12* or like 18+?
I believe its 16-30? 16 is the minimum but they have an underage option ranging from 12-15 that offers more guidance.
How long did you go to Rolling Korea for
8 weeks!
@@oneofthesapienshow much was that! im doing 8 weeks too
Any age requirements?
this helped me a lot thank u 🫶🏻
did you need any consent from parents to fly alone alone to korea? 🤍
nope
hii! i was wondering if i could ask some questions about rolling korea! im going summer 2025 and im just really worried that im gonna get scammed or something. lmk if i can dm on insta or elsewhere :)
yea shoot me a dm on instagram (@ lesliexfrausto) , i though the same before going but no worries they are legit
i’m in the middle of watching but girl that’s so helpful! my only issue is prices of my trip are the same for both RK and EF, but for EF I can get 20% discount..which makes EF way cheaper but somehow RK seems more trustable..🥲
Hey!!! I also went to seoul with EF and eventhough I definitely think that EF has its problems, it was still a great time, made many forever friends and I learned a lot!!! If you're still going with EF I think it will be an enjoyable time :)
I booked with EF and I am going June 2023!!
How did you get the discount?
Isnt RK cheaper?:)
@@trinideemcconnell7186 I got a new year discount
