    The course was amazing and super helpful. You must join the course and learn some hidden and tremendous aspects of Korean History. I was so indulged in learning about Korean Culture along with its history related to their strengths, fears, and wonderful qualities as well as strengths to overcome so many hardships during war times. I also finally, got to know and understand the split of South and North Korea that I was not able to get for a long time now. You should peek into this course to get more knowledge about it. So interesting and Excellent it is. Full of adventures. Thank You.
