This thread is for people that needs Korean cars, phones, games, laptop, etc or any products from United States, but can't afford new ones or those that needs any original car spare parts or any parts/ equipment that is accessible in Korea and United States but not in Nigeria.
You can look at offerup.com, Craigslists ann arbor, Let go, Ebay and Amazon or any other website and send me link of what you want.

If you need anything in US, limit your search to Michigan, Ann Arbor.

It took me a lot of time to set up this business since i had make contacts with Koreans and that can handle open shipment incase any body needs open shipment. and for those that doesn't want the stress of clearing cars, I also made an option of clearing in my own container while i charge u both for shipping and clearing so that the day i'm opening my container, u will just come and balance and pick your ride.

I decided to start this thread because Korean cars has fully entered Nigerian market and is not everybody that can afford buying new ones and also to help people that needs spare parts.

Arnoldo:
please how much is a straight flight from Nigeria to south Korea and what air system is better .... I am asking because I saw where it was stated that for language course, you can leave with #500k. I am wondering if it includes flight fee too.

The best way to check flight fee is by checking airlines website..check ethiopian airline and also note that the present naira dollar rate will increase flight fee in naija

Arnoldo:
hello acadollar.pls the transcripts you used was it your students copy or did your school mail it instead. I am planning on applying to 7 schools for their scholarships so I am considering the costs of sending my transcript separate from my application package.
someone mentioned using EMS post office for my postages, I didn't get the cost estimate of sending my application package to a school in south Korea. I also want to know what specific documents you had to notarize. You also stated that most scholarships are offered after the first semester.. does it mean I can't get a full scholarship before going like Gwangju institute of science and technology ( GIST) or KAIST.
Did you have to take TOFEL before getting admitted
thanks.

Get a letter stating that your previous studies have been in English, the easiest way to get scholarship here is to have a good grades after ist semester

PURITYMYPRIDE:

Here are some of culture shocks you may encounter(and I have encountered) when you go here in Korea. Whether you’ll come here to visit, to work or to live, you can take note of this list for your own perusal in the future.

1. Wreaths




I think one of the first few culture shocks I encountered was seeing wreaths in various celebrations. In Philippines, you can only see wreaths during a funeral. In fact, it symbolizes death or mourning in our culture. However, I was so shocked when I saw people displaying wreaths when a new business is opened, or if there’s a wedding, or if somebody is celebrating an anniversary. Just try to take a walk along Myeongdong or Namdaemun or any big markets in Korea and you will more likely see wreaths display all over the places. Don’t make the same mistake I made, don’t think somebody is mourning over a death because it could just be an opening of new business.

2. The Korean men affection


Guys wrapping each others arms while walking is a common scenario in Korea


I am from a culture where seeing two women holding hands or giving each other a kiss on the cheek is pretty normal and acceptable. But, that won’t give the same impression for men. Like the western culture, a guy being touchy-feely to other guy maybe suspected to be gay. Guys could just shake each other hands or pat each other in the back, but as far as experience is concerned, Korean men tend to be touchy. How many times a Korean ahjussi(adult male) held my hand feeling it as if we were close? Here in Korea, exchanging of sweet nothings and putting arms around another guy’s body are extremely common. A guy can be intimate with another guy as a sign of deeper friendship. They are even comfortable seeing each other naked. I once tried going to a public bath and I was shocked when I saw guys cleaning each other naked body, or play around with group of friends in a bath tub naked! Then I learned later on that it was pretty normal and in fact significant in Korean culture.

3. The squatter

Korea has an advance technology. Their buildings are made of modern designs and the people are so techie. Almost everything in Korea is automated and very sophisticated. But if there’s one thing in the past that made its way through to this generation, I’ll say it’s the squatty potty. A squatter is a small basin made of porcelain where you need to literally squat over to “do your thing”. The first time I saw this kind of toilet bowl was in a subway station. I was shocked because I don’t know what to do. So I decided to not let my stomach upset if I go around Korea especially if I am in an old building because the odd of having a squatty potty in the bathroom is big.

For some reason, some Koreans especially the old ones are more comfortable using this than the usual toilet bowl we have today. Apparently, it’s good for the health when you do squat position during the “you know what I mean”.

4. Free hugs! Anyone?

Free hugs is becoming a big trend in Korea nowadays. You can see them teenagers, boys and girls, holding big placard offering Free hugs to anybody. This maybe not new to some culture because I can see some of this trend especially in the Western Culture, but I guess Koreans are taking it to a higher level because they don’t only stand to offer free hugs, they also go around offering to anybody like selling hot cake in the market. To some extent, they go to public transportations and subways to ambush everybody with hugs. It’s weird but sweet. One time, I tried to join these two boys offering free hugs to the public. I hugged a lot of ahjummas (adult women).

5. Pali Pali culture

This is for those who want to come here to work. When you are new to working in Korea, you may need to give it more time to adjust because you don’t only need to adjust to people or the working environment, you also need to adjust to this pali pali culture or “Hurry culture”. Don’t get intimated when your boss will tell you to work as fast and as hard as you can because for them, this is customary. If you can slack off to work in your own country, here in Korea, you’ll probably find it hard to do that same habit of yours. They are so workaholic and every single moment at work is important. For them, productivity is essential. No wonder why they are so progressive. I can’t even count how many times I was told the magic word “pali pali”. At first, it really annoys me, but it somehow makes you more effective and productive.

These are just 5 of the many culture shocks you may encounter when you go here in Korea. I’ll tell you, there are still hundreds of those weird customs and they are inevitable. Whether you like it or not, you’ll get to encounter it once you’re here. But I guess that’s where the fun comes.

I noticed that many people do think Korea as just a place for hussling and factory work.
but it is way more than that.
Korea also blesses people that come to korea with cash to do business, like exporting from Korea to other countries.
Below are some of the good things to export in korea.
So if you are looking for where to invest..visit korea for business..

Arnoldo:
why is no one mentioning scholarships.??

Apply for scholarship..u can still get
but korean offers much scholarship after ist semester.
based on Gp, they set scholarship rules,
for example, if ure gp is maybe 3.5 ..u are qualified for full scholarship and a little paycheck for upkeep
if is 2 .5 , ure entitled to half tuition etc.
