The Shinan County Scholarship Foundation has selected 531 students to receive scholarships for the second half of 2025, awarding a total of 794.1 million KRW to support local talent.

The decision was finalized at a board meeting held on November 11th, presided over by Chairman Kim Dae-in. The scholarship amount represents an increase of 482.7 million KRW compared to the initial plan of 311.4 million KRW.

Applications were accepted from October 1st to 22nd across nine categories, with a total of 597 applicants. Following document screening and deliberation by the board, 531 students were ultimately selected.

Notably, in the category of living expenses support for university students, all applicants with a GPA of C or higher were selected, with 700 million KRW awarded to 360 students.

The increase in applicants is attributed to several factors, including:

• Eligibility for concurrent receipt of scholarships from other institutions

• Availability of application twice per year

• No limit on the number of eligible family members per household

These broad criteria have contributed to the increased accessibility of the scholarship program.

Including this second-half allocation, the foundation will provide over 1.7 billion KRW in scholarships to a total of 1,084 students in 2025.

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
