❏Suggestions on Website Format⋅From the perspectives of the foreigners visiting the websites, please suggest additional content, design, and layout to be added to the websites.

1. Suggestions on Main Design of Websites

The recent change which is brought in the website does not seem that catchy. The sliding feature of main page content was attractive but after change it is not there. If that feature can be brought back it would be very nice.

2. Information to be Added to the Websites

If it is possible to add the feature of real time question and answer, it would be great. If it’s possible to add a group of alumni or current students from different universities under the heading of

education for question and answers, it would be great for the students who are seeking for Korean universities for higher studies.

The social media page of the website is very active regarding replying any message or comment but if someone comments on the website page post then replies are very slow.
