Hello~ I am a writer from China.

What do you usually pay attention to when you come to Korea to study? Living or studying? Today I will give you a few things to pay attention to when studying in Korea.

First of all, it is the most important and most basic visa for coming to Korea to study. The Korean student visa is a type of visa that allows foreign students to study in Korea. Various types of study visas are applied for according to the various plans and circumstances of the international student.

First, if the international student receives the admission notice from the Korean school and pays the tuition fee, the international student can request the admission notice and school business registration certificate from the school. .

Study visas are divided into two types. The first is the D-2 visa and the D-4 visa .

The D-2 visa applies to international students enrolled in a university or graduate school for more than one year, and the D-4 visa applies to international students or exchange students studying a language for less than one year.

After issuing the visa, you must arrive in Korea within the stipulated time and must comply with the laws of Korea. Please pay attention to the visa validity period and renew it in time.

Next is the insurance that each student in Korea must pay regularly. This insurance is called National Health Insurance. It is a social insurance system created by the government to guarantee the health and medical welfare of the people. This system was introduced in 1977. .

National health insurance is differentiated according to the income level of the subscriber. Low-income people can enjoy relatively preferential insurance premiums.

Residents enrolled in the National Health Insurance can receive a variety of services, including hospitalization, surgery, medicines, dentistry, and health checkups. The National Health Insurance also provides medical services for special groups suffering from chronic diseases.

However, although the National Health Insurance provides basic medical coverage, patients still have to pay part of the medical expenses when actually using it.

Then here's the point!

According to the National Insurance Act of the Republic of Korea, everyone legally residing in Korea, including international students, must enroll in the National Health Insurance.

Our international students are required to subscribe to the National Health Insurance if their visa is valid for more than 6 months. By subscribing to the National Health Insurance, our international students can receive the same medical guarantee and welfare as local residents in Korea.

This article briefly introduces two situations that Korean students should pay attention to. Everyone, please read slowly and understand.
