｢ LEC Seminar｣ Korean Lab Decoded — Almost Every Answer You Need for Your Korean Lab Life |

- HIT : 10
If any of this sounds familiar, we warmly invite you to join us.
* The daily struggle - Emails that go unanswered. Feedback you can’t quite decode. Not knowing when it’s okay to knock on your professor’s door, or how to ask your lab senior for help.
* The slow isolation - Becoming invisible outside the lab meeting. Following your group KakaoTalk with Google Translate. Feeling like, no matter how hard you work, you will always be an outsider here.
* The invisible cost - The projects, the presentations, the recommendation letters - going to the students who communicate naturally. Not because you are less capable. Because you were never given the tools.
We will cover:
· How to communicate with your professor - emails, meeting requests, and how to decode what they really mean
· How to connect with your lab seniors and peers - KakaoTalk, asking for help, and lab dinners
· How to read the room - indirect speech, silence, and the social intelligence Koreans call 눈치 (nunchi)
