Arrival in Silla University

After 8 hours of flying, we finally arrived in Busan, Korea! We were picked up at the airport by Mr. Choi and reached Silla University without a hassle. The first person we spoke to here is Mr. Choi who is friendly and helpful as well as cute \(^.^)/!! It took approximately 20 minutes to reach Silla U, and boy were we surprised to see the Uni! In our tired state of minds, a glimpse of the campus had us refreshed and excited again!
