Hi everyone! My name is Keiko Hilmo, and I’m the Ted Wang Fellow in Seoul, South Korea this semester. At Wellesley I’m a Cognitive and Linguistic Sciences major and Korean Language and Culture minor, so it’s really exciting to finally be putting my language studies to use in real life. I interned full time during January and February and am now studying at Seoul National University while continuing my internship. I’ve met good friends and had some exciting opportunities in Korea, so I am excited to share them through this blog!

Outside of academics I run cross country and track and at Wellesley and also enjoy learning languages, watching dramas, and lately have been into reading Korean webtoons.
