Korea University Business School Holds Early Admission Orientation Attended by 144 Admitted Students and Parents      The 2026 Early Admission Orientation for admitted students to Korea University Business School was held on Sunday, December 14, at Supex Hall and Ahn Young-Il Hall in the LG-POSCO Building. A total of 144 admitted students and parents attended the event, along with Eonsoo Kim, Dean of the Business School; Hyun Seung Na, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs; Dae Il Nam, Associate Dean for Research; and Byung Cho Kim, Associate Dean for Planning.    The event was hosted by Hyo-won Ahn (Business ’24) and Da-jin Kim (Business ’25), members of KUBE, the official promotional ambassadors of Korea University Business School. The program began with a promotional video screening, followed by △an introduction to the history of the Business School and campus life △a presentation on the School’s vision by Dean Eonsoo Kim △student experience-sharing sessions △a Business School campus tour △a reception. Rather than serving as a simple welcome event, the orientation was designed to provide admitted students and parents with answers in one place to the questions they are most curious about prior to enrollment.      Curriculum, Tracks, Scholarships, and Career Paths: Designed to Answer “Pre-Admission Questions”  The introduction to the academic system was presented by integrating the curriculum and student support systems into a single, coherent framework. The Business School explained that it offers a wide range of academic fields, with approximately 68% of courses taught in English, along with diverse learning opportunities such as lectures by globally renowned scholars. Students can broaden their academic interests through nine areas of concentration, including Management, Finance, and Strategy. Options such as a combined bachelor’s–master’s program and a planned bachelor’s–master’s–doctoral program were also introduced.    In addition, the Business School operates five concentration tracks: △Business Analytics △Entrepreneurship and Innovation △Social Value and Sustainable in Business △Financial Analysis and Investment △AI and Business. It was also explained that students in the Department of Business Administration who meet the requirements for completing a concentration track are awarded an additional certificate alongside their degree.    The scholarship system was explained by covering national scholarships, university-wide scholarships, and scholarships unique to the Business School. Support is provided in three forms—tuition support, living expense scholarships, and program scholarships—and it was emphasized that various types are operated depending on students’ circumstances and needs. Regarding career support, programs such as alumni mentoring through the Career Development Center, domestic internships, career fairs, and referral-based recruitment were introduced. In addition, entrepreneurship competency enhancement programs, startup competitions, startup networks and space support offered by the Startup Station, as we as well as the operation of exam-preparation classes, were also explained.      Dean Eonsoo Kim: “Creating Value Through Business… Cultivating Talent Centered on the 3Cs and 4Tech”  Dean Eonsoo Kim delivered congratulatory remarks and outlined the School’s direction. Emphasizing the essence of management, he stated, “Profit is merely the result of management activities, not the ultimate purpose. The purpose of management is to create value.” He added, “Learning how to make money simply by cutting costs is not the right approach to management.”    He also shared insights into the scale and composition of the Business School. Korea University Business School currently has 93 full-time faculty members, with a goal of expanding to 101 by this time next year, and reported that international students make up approximately 26% of the student body. Amid expectations of even more rapid change, he remarked, “No matter how much the world changes, we will nurture talent that embodies values that do not change.”    Dean Kim presented the School’s ideal talent profile as the 3Cs—Curiosity, Collaboration, and Contribution—and the 4Tech areas of Robotics, AI, Energy, and Semiconductors. In this context, he announced plans to establish an AI concentration track and a 4Tech micro-degree program, and introduced plans to create an ‘Art & Culture Zone’ in the basement level of Hyundai Motor Hall to foster interdisciplinary talent. Concluding his remarks, Dean Kim stated, “Even if all business schools in the world were to disappear, Korea University Business School must endure to the very end.”      Seniors Share “Post-Admission Options”: Exchange Programs, Academic Societies, Startups, Professional Certifications, and Law School  The seniors’ experience-sharing session offered the most concrete picture of what students can pursue after enrollment. A wide range of pathways—including exchange programs, academic clubs, startups, preparation for professional certifications, and law school—were shared in a single session, illustrating how learning, experience, and career development are interconnected at the Business School.    Je Jung-won (Business ’23) first shared her experience participating in an exchange program at the University of Cologne in Germany. After taking five courses, she explained that she made use of the flexible semester system by focusing on classes during the first three months and on experiences and travel during the latter three months. She summed up the transformation she gained through the exchange program with the phrase, “A different place, a clearer me.”    Byun Ji-seok (Business ’20) then spoke about how he clarified his career path through his activities with KUVIC, a value-investing club. Key activities included writing corporate valuation-based reports, managing an internal fund, alumni lectures, internal competitions, homecoming events, and “Meet the Alumni” sessions. He emphasized that connections with seniors often led to practical advice and real support, highlighting the advantage of being able to engage with peers who share similar interests while also learning from alumni working in the industry. He also noted that, in addition to KUVIC, the Business School has 19 academic clubs.    Yoon Geon-jae (Business ’19) shared his startup experience with Kairos, explaining that the company builds proprietary assets based on artificial intelligence and content IP. He also spoke about the motivation behind choosing entrepreneurship, emphasizing the importance of turning shortcomings into strengths and crises into opportunities. He added that the Business School serves as a platform where individuals from diverse backgrounds can collaborate and connect. Toward the end of his presentation, he quoted a question posed by Kim Han-kook, CEO of Gentle Monster, leaving the audience with a thought-provoking reflection on “what truly motivates you to take action.”    Nam Taek-hoon (Business ’21) introduced the preparation process and support systems for the CPA (Certified Public Accountant) exam, focusing on the operation of the CPA preparation program. He explained that CPAs work in areas such as auditing, taxation, financial advisory, and accounting consulting, playing a key role in building corporate trust and supporting decision-making. He then outlined the structured mock exams, academic management, and mentoring provided by the CPA preparation program “Jeongjincho,” along with benefits such as subsidies for external preparatory courses, mentor–mentee programs, and shared academic resources. He added that students selected through faculty interviews may also receive living expense scholarships, and concluded his presentation with the advice, “Try many experiences before you begin.”    Kim Eun-su (Business ’19), an alumnus currently enrolled in the 16th cohort of Korea University Law School, shared insights into the law school admission process and how to prepare during undergraduate studies. She explained that law school follows a three-year, six-semester structure characterized by an intensive academic workload and multiple examinations throughout the program. The selection process, she noted, considers both quantitative factors—such as LEET and English scores—and qualitative factors, including personal statements, document evaluations, and interviews. She added that the broad academic exposure she gained at the Business School, including coursework in marketing and international business, was helpful in pursuing career paths such as corporate law, and highlighted the breadth of learning experiences and the network as key strengths of the Business School.      Q&A Based on Pre-Submitted Questions  The Q&A session focused on questions submitted in advance by attendees and was moderated by Hyun Seung Na, Associate Dean for Academic Affairs. Topics included the unique strengths of Korea University’s Department of Business Administration, the double major system, the exchange student application process and selection timeline, club activities, career paths after graduation, law school admission rates, the major curriculum, and recommended professional certifications. Associate Dean Na and the senior students who had presented earlier provided detailed responses, addressing the admitted students’ questions and concerns.      “A Time to See and Ask in Person”—Campus Tours in 12 Groups and a Reception  After the event at SUPEX Hall concluded, admitted students and parents were divided into 12 groups to participate in campus tours of the Business School’s three buildings. Despite the cold weather, excitement was evident on the faces of the admitted students, while parents watched on with calm and warm expressions. Following the tours, a reception was held at Ahn Young-Il Hall, where KUBE members sat at each table to facilitate question-and-answer discussions. Ahn Hyo-won (Business ’24) shared that conversations covered “practical topics such as senior–junior campus culture, varsity jackets, clubs, academic societies, and dormitory life.” Kim Ye-eun, an early admission student who was seated at the same table, remarked, “As someone from outside the Seoul area, I rarely had opportunities to explore the city. It was great to actually visit the campus instead of just viewing it online, and to learn concretely what we study through seniors’ explanations. Things I had only imagined before now feel real and tangible.” 

Solidarity and Giving Across Generations… Korea University Business School Alumni Night Celebrates 120 Years of Legacy    Korea University Business School maintains active engagement and networking through its alumni association, composed primarily of graduates. The “43rd Alumni Night,” a signature event celebrating this spirit of connection, was held on Thursday, December 4, at the Grand Ballroom on the fifth floor of the Grand InterContinental Seoul Parnas. This year’s event was particularly meaningful as it took place during the 120th anniversary of the Business School’s founding, bringing together intergenerational exchange and philanthropic engagement. The evening began with a cocktail reception, followed by a pre-opening performance, an opening declaration and ceremonial entrance of the flags, the introduction of distinguished guests, greetings and congratulatory remarks by alumni association leaders, academic reports, scholarship presentations and award ceremonies, a toast and dinner, and celebratory performances. A large number of alumni, university officials, and current students attended, filling the venue.      Opening and Introduction of Distinguished Guests  The opening ceremony was hosted by alumni Jong-wook Ahn (Business ’89) and Ina Jung (Home Economics Education ’08). The Korean national flag, the Business School flag, and the Alumni Association flag were carried in by alumni Seung-hyun Shin, Kyung-tae Kim, and Kyung-sun Han from the Class of 1998. Notably, Kyung-sun Han carried the Alumni Association flag as the female alumni representative, adding special significance to the moment. This was followed by the national anthem and the introduction of distinguished guests. Applause filled the hall as the names of symbolic figures, including the oldest alumnus, were announced.     Greetings and Congratulatory Remarks  In his welcoming remarks, Dong-Seop Lee, President of the Business School Alumni Association, expressed his gratitude, saying, “Thanks to the participation of many alumni from across generations in the various events organized by the Alumni Association this year, we were able to continue fostering opportunities for communication and exchange.” He added, “I hope today’s gathering will be a meaningful occasion for all alumni.”    In the congratulatory remarks that followed, Myung-Ho Seung, President of the Korea University Alumni Association, said, “Since its first event in 1982, Alumni Night has served as a forum for sharing the traditions and pride of the Business School,” adding that “the experiences and achievements of senior alumni have also become a benchmark for younger generations.”    In a video message, Korea University President Dong-One Kim stated, “As we celebrate the University’s 120th anniversary, we have been carrying out commemorative initiatives across education, research, and infrastructure,” and expressed his hope that “the Business School will continue to play a vital role as a central pillar of the University in the years ahead.”      Presentation of the Business School’s Achievements and Vision  Dean Eonsoo Kim shared the Business School’s major achievements and outlined its future vision. He highlighted a range of accomplishments, including ranking first nationwide in the number of successful Certified Public Accountant (CPA) examinees and maintaining the highest number for ten consecutive years; achieving an average global ranking in the top 40 across major fields in the QS World University Rankings; ranking 4th globally in the QS Master’s in Management (CEMS MIM) program; and placing 61st worldwide in the Financial Times Executive MBA rankings. He also reported the continued maintenance of AACSB and EQUIS accreditations, sustained membership in CEMS, and a cumulative enterprise value of KRW 274.5 billion generated by companies housed in the Startup Research Institute.    This was followed by an overview of the faculty profile and an introduction of newly appointed faculty members for the 2025 academic year, along with a detailed report on scholarships established through alumni donations and their disbursement. The presentation also covered internationalization outcomes, including exchange student programs, and concluded with an introduction to the KUBS 120 MARCH campaign and guidance on participation in giving initiatives.    Dean Kim stated, “Building on our current QS global ranking in the top 40, we aim to reach the global top 30 by 2030,” adding that “we will pursue further growth centered on the 3C and 4Tech strategies.” He continued, “Your participation plays a vital role in nurturing outstanding management talent and in laying a strong foundation for national and social development,” and called for active engagement.      Alumnus of the Year and Special Awards  The Alumnus of the Year Awards were presented to Yong-hoon Lee, Chief Executive Officer of InTimes Inc. (Business ’84); Hyung-geun Bae, President and Chief Executive Officer of Hyundai Motor Securities (Business ’84); and Ji-young Choi, Director-General for International Economic Affairs at the Ministry of Economy and Finance (Business ’89). Each recipient was recognized for outstanding achievements in global education, corporate finance and ESG management, and international finance, respectively.    In addition, the Class of 1979 Alumni Group received a Special Award in recognition of its contribution to upholding a meaningful tradition between senior and junior alumni by pledging annual scholarship donations of KRW 35 million beginning in 2024, totaling KRW 175 million. This symbolic moment demonstrated Korea University’s long-standing traditions of devotion to one’s alma mater and classmate solidarity, as 46 years of deep friendship among classmates were extended to support current students.    A Special Donation by the Class of ’98 That Illuminated the 120th Anniversary  The collective donation made by the entire Class of 1998 stood out as one of the most symbolic moments of this year’s Alumni Night. A total of 126 classmates took part, raising approximately KRW 79 million, which was formally presented at the event. This initiative was voluntarily carried out by the entire class and was particularly meaningful in that many alumni participated wholeheartedly despite their busy professional lives.    The donation will be used to support scholarships for younger students and to enhance the educational environment of the Business School, with particular emphasis on programs designed to strengthen students’ global competencies. Reflecting on the contribution, the Class of 1998 Alumni Group stated, “We all shared the belief that the learning and friendships we gained at Korea University formed an important foundation in our lives, and we wished to pass those precious experiences on to future generations.” This donation has been recorded as the collective footprint of an entire generation that joined the Business School on its 120-year journey.      At the End of a Night Where Tradition Met the Future  Following the presentation of special awards, the event drew to a close with a celebratory toast, dinner, performances, and the singing of the university anthem. This year’s Alumni Night went beyond a simple social gathering, serving as an occasion for alumni to collectively reflect on the 120-year history of Korea University Business School and to reaffirm its vision for the next 120 years.  Warm solidarity connecting generations, unwavering pride in the alma mater, and wholehearted support for younger generations came together to once again reinforce the stature of the Business School. It is hoped that the warmth and shared commitments of this night will continue to serve as a driving force in further advancing the Business School’s development and strengthening the bonds of its alumni community. 

Reflecting on the Value of Giving and Sharing… 2025 Fall Semester Certificate of Scholarship Awarding Ceremony Held         The 2025 Fall Scholarship Award Ceremony of Korea University Business School was held on Thursday, November 13, at Ahn Young-Il Hall in the LG-POSCO Hall.

The attendees celebrated the scholarship recipients and helped create a warm atmosphere grounded in the value of giving.        The Business School provides various forms of support—such as national, university, and external scholarships—to 52% of its enrolled students. The total annual scholarship amount reaches approximately 6 billion KRW. The school currently operates a wide range of programs, including 20 types of KUBS Need-Based Scholarships (tuition support) and the Dream Scholarship (living expense support). In the 2025 academic year, 300 students received support through 44 different scholarship programs, made possible by the contributions of more than 600 donors to date. The Business School emphasized that it will “continue to operate the scholarship system transparently and responsibly so that no student’s education is interrupted for financial reasons.”    In his congratulatory remarks, Dean Eonsoo Kim expressed his gratitude, saying, “The warm generosity of our donors serves as a steadfast force that ensures our students’ learning is never interrupted.” He also highlighted recent achievements of the Business School, including: △ entering the global top 40 across major categories in the QS 2025 Business Discipline rankings, △ producing the highest number of Certified Public Accountant (CPA) passers for ten consecutive years, and △ nurturing 154 startup companies and generating 274.5 billion KRW in corporate value through the Startup Research Institute. He emphasized that these accomplishments were “made possible by the dedication of our students and the trust of our donors.”        Sixty representative scholarship recipients, out of the total 300 awardees, attended the ceremony to receive their certificates in person. A variety of scholarships were presented, including the Eunmin Dream Scholarship, Eonsoo Kim Dream Scholarship, Jungsoo Han Dream Scholarship, Geumcheon Scholarship, Namchon Scholarship, and the AMP 96 Alumni Association Scholarship. After the certificate presentation, donors and recipients took commemorative photos together, sharing moments of gratitude and encouragement.        During the event, a special session was arranged for donors to receive words of appreciation directly. Two alumni representatives took the stage and opened their remarks by saying, “We are grateful for providing us with a channel through which we can express our thanks.” The donor listened attentively to their heartfelt messages, further adding to the warm and meaningful atmosphere of the occasion. The full texts of the remarks delivered on the day are presented below.    Han Jung Su Dream Scholarship Recipient, Geunwoo Lee (Business Administration ’21)  The words shared by CEO Han Jung Su through his YouTube channel “Introduction to World Studies”—“Youth has an expiration date. We live only once, so let us live fully and happily”—have always resonated deeply with me. I have kept this message close to my heart, striving to live this chapter of my life with passion and purpose. Through the invaluable gift of this scholarship, I feel that CEO Han’s philosophy has come even closer to my own life. It is not merely financial support for my studies, but a warm encouragement to make the most of my youth and to continue growing without complacency.  Looking ahead, I aspire to become a lawyer specializing in mergers and acquisitions, contributing to both corporate growth and societal development at the intersection of law and finance. To achieve this goal, I am dedicating myself to improving my English and Chinese proficiency, obtaining certifications in accounting and finance, and preparing for the Law School Admission Test. In addition, I am actively participating in various finance-related extracurricular activities to build practical insight, while also striving to maintain strong academic performance.  There are days when time feels insufficient due to my demanding schedule, but thanks to this scholarship, I have been able to ease my financial burden and focus more deeply on my studies and personal development.  The genuine spirit of giving demonstrated by CEO Han has given me great strength and courage. I will carry this generosity in my heart as I grow into a legal professional who shares positive influence with society. As CEO Han emphasized, I will cherish my youth and strive to live a meaningful life—one that is lived fully and with purpose. Someday, I hope to support and encourage the dreams of others, carrying forward his vision through my own actions.  Once again, I extend my heartfelt gratitude.   MnJ Cultural Welfare Foundation Scholarship Recipient, Yeonwoo Jung (Business Administration ’25) It is a great honor to have the opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to our donors at this meaningful scholarship certificate award ceremony.  First and foremost, I would like to extend my heartfelt thanks to Executive Director Yangseong Il of KCC, as well as to all of our donors, for believing in the dreams and potential of the scholarship recipients and for generously supporting us. Thanks to your warm spirit of giving, we are able to look beyond financial challenges and pursue greater opportunities in the world ahead.  To me, this scholarship represents far more than financial assistance—it is a vote of confidence that empowers me to move forward toward the future. While balancing part-time work and tutoring to cover tuition and living expenses, this scholarship has given me the freedom to focus fully on my studies and to engage more deeply in learning. As a result, I am now able to further develop my academic interests and continue preparing to apply what I have learned in meaningful ways within society.  The generosity shown by our donors has allowed us to experience not only support, but also the true value of the virtuous cycle of giving. All of the scholarship recipients gathered here today are striving, in their own ways, to one day return this kindness to society.  I, too, will carry the support I have received in my heart and work toward becoming someone who can pass on the same hope and encouragement to future generations.  I firmly believe that the outstanding achievements of Korea University Business School, both domestically and internationally, would not have been possible without the continued interest and dedication of our donors. As scholarship recipients, we will strive to honor that trust by growing not only academically, but also in character.  Once again, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to all of our donors for supporting the dreams of students and helping to illuminate our future.   Following the award ceremony and the presentation of recipients’ remarks, a special lecture titled “The Neuroscience of Altruism and Empathy” was delivered by Professor Hakjin Kim of the Department of Psychology at Korea University. Drawing on findings from neuroscience research, Professor Kim explained how altruistic behavior and empathy are formed in the human brain, emphasizing that “altruistic behavior is not merely an act of goodwill, but originates from the fundamental human desire to form relationships with others.” His insights into how donation and sharing foster a healthy cycle that extends beyond individuals to society as a whole were met with enthusiastic responses from the audience.   The event concluded with a commemorative group photo and a dinner attended by all scholarship recipients. Donors and alumni engaged in meaningful conversations with the students, offering advice on academic pursuits and career paths, while the students shared their gratitude and aspirations for the future. The ceremony was remembered as a meaningful occasion that demonstrated how the values of sharing and community upheld by Korea University Business School are actively practiced in the educational setting. 

KUBS Leads Nation in CPA Exam Pass Rate for 10 Consecutive Years Rate      Korea University (President Dong-One Kim) and its Business School (Dean Eonsoo Kim) celebrated their 10th consecutive year leading the nation in Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam pass rates on Wednesday, September 10. The milestone was marked during the Business School’s general faculty meeting at Ahn Young-Il Hall, LG-POSCO Building.      Attendees included President Dong-One Kim, Seung-Weon Yoo (Director of Strategy and Planning), Yong Keun Yoo (Director of Budget and Planning), Myung-Jin Lee (Director of Academic Affairs), Hyun-Suk Park (Dean of Students), and Heon-Jeong Lee (Director of Research Affairs). They were joined by about 60 faculty members from the Business School who came together to celebrate the achievement.  Since 2016, Korea University has led the nation in CPA exam passers each year, and with more than 170 successful candidates in the 2025 exam, it retained the top spot for the 10th consecutive year. Notably, both the top scorer and the youngest qualifier this year were Korea University students, underscoring the school’s academic strength.  During the event, President Dong-One Kim presented an encouragement fund to the Business School’s CPA preparation group “Jeongjincho (精進礎),” stating, “Achieving No.1 nationwide in CPA final pass rates for 10 consecutive years is clear evidence of Korea University’s educational competitiveness.” He added, “As Korea University celebrates its 120th anniversary, we will enhance financial and educational infrastructure to rank among the world’s top 30 universities by 2030,” and pledged, “We will continue to support the Business School so that it not only remains the best in Korea but also grows to a truly world-class level.” 

Korea University Tops CPA Exam Results for 10 Consecutive Years – An Overwhelming Achievement    Korea University (President Dong-One Kim) announced on the 5th that it recorded the largest number of successful candidates in the 60th Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam, marking the 10th consecutive year that the university has ranked first nationwide. This year, both the top scorer and the youngest successful candidate were Korea University students, further demonstrating the university’s outstanding capability in nurturing talent.  Since 2016, Korea University has produced the largest number of successful candidates in the Certified Public Accountant (CPA) exam among all universities each year. The figures demonstrate a consistently high level of achievement: 118 in 2016, 97 in 2017, 114 in 2018, 109 in 2019, 127 in 2020, 152 in 2021, and 175 in 2022.      Although official statistics have not been released since 2023, data from accounting firms and universities indicate that approximately 170 Korea University students passed the 2025 CPA exam, once again giving the university the largest number of successful candidates. Korea University has consistently held a commanding lead in first place, outpacing the second-ranked university by 40 to 50 students each year. The cumulative number of successful candidates has now exceeded 1,400, significantly surpassing that of other universities.      This achievement is underpinned by Korea University’s structured educational programs and comprehensive support system. In particular, the College of Business Administration’s CPA preparatory program, Jeongjincho (精進礎), was expanded in the 2023 academic year to include students from all departments, thus enabling all KU students to prepare for the CPA exam.  Additionally, Korea University provides practical support measures such as dedicated study spaces, subsidies for preparatory course fees, scholarships, and mock exams. The university also facilitates online communities and peer mentoring by senior students, enabling students to develop their capabilities in a stable and supportive environment throughout their studies.  A Korea University official stated, “This achievement of producing the largest number of successful CPA candidates for 10 consecutive years is the result of our students’ passion, our faculty’s dedication, and the university’s structured support system.” The official added, “We will continue to nurture accounting professionals who can excel both domestically and internationally.” 

Walking the Campus, Envisioning the Future: 2025 KUBS Regular Campus Tour and Youth Day      On Saturday, May 17, Korea University Business School (KUBS) hosted the “2025 KUBS Regular Campus Tour and Youth Day” on its campus. The event welcomed approximately 100 high school students from across the country, offering them a glimpse into real college life and in-depth insights into business studies. The program was organized and led by KUBE, the official student ambassadors of KUBS, who shared their personal university experiences and perspectives.  The program consisted of △an opening ceremony, △About KUBS (an introduction to the business school and its majors), △a group photo session, △a student transition period and break, △a campus tour, △a mentoring session with enrolled students, and △a closing ceremony.      During the opening ceremony, Associate Dean Hyun Seung Na warmly welcomed the students, saying, “I sincerely thank you for taking the time and effort to be here today. I hope this experience helps you understand why business studies are essential to society and inspires greater motivation.” He especially acknowledged participants who traveled long distances from cities such as Changwon and Busan, adding, “As a small token of appreciation, we will gift Korea University tiger plushies to those who came from the farthest regions.”  The remark was met with enthusiastic applause and cheers from the audience.      The event was emceed by KUBE President Ujin Shin and Vice President Minji Kang. During the About KUBS session, ambassadors Junseok Hong and Chaewoo Lee introduced the business school, followed by Sihoon Moon and Dajin Kim, who presented an engaging overview of the school’s nine academic concentrations.  They highlighted KUBS’s reputation as the top producer of certified public accountants (CPAs) in Korea and its global learning environment, supported by 90 full-time professors and over 61.2% of classes conducted in English. To make the content more relatable, the ambassadors used the example of ramen — covering its production, distribution, and marketing — to explain business specializations in a fun and accessible way. A final quiz session added to the excitement, with small prizes awarded to students who answered correctly.      Following the group photo, students were divided into teams and gathered in lecture rooms at Hyundai Motor Hall. Each group, guided by KUBE ambassadors, embarked on a campus tour that included key business facilities — LG-POSCO Hall, Hyundai Motor Hall, and the Main Building — as well as notable locations on the Humanities and Social Sciences Campus such as the Centennial Memorial Samsung Hall, SK Future Hall, and the underground facilities beneath Central Plaza. Students took commemorative group photos at each stop, creating lasting memories.      The mentoring session that followed provided an open space for questions on admissions, academics, and university life. When asked about study strategies, ambassador Chaewoo Lee shared, “Understanding the test maker’s intent is key to performing well on school exams. I used vacation periods to prepare for the Korean SAT and focused on school grades during the semester to maintain balance.”  The ambassadors also introduced diverse career paths including CPA preparation, the Public Officer Qualification Exam, and launching a startup, offering practical insights and motivation to participants as they explore their future academic and career goals.      One student shared, “I was unsure about my future, but today sparked my interest in business. Now I’m dreaming of entering Korea University and becoming a member of KUBE.”      The KUBS Regular Campus Tour and Youth Day has evolved into more than just a campus visit — it offers meaningful, hands-on experiences that help students envision their academic journey and future careers. Held twice annually in May and November, the next Youth Mentoring Day, providing deeper insights into business education, is scheduled for July. Applications will open in June via the official KUBE website.
