Korean universities encourage famous Korean universities, such as Korea Foreign Studies University, National University and Jianguo University, to post Chinese slogans on official website's homepage to cheer for China's fight against pneumonia caused by novel coronavirus.
South Korean President Moon Jae in said that when neighbors suffer, they should not stand by and share the pain. Only in this way can we truly face our future neighbors hand in hand. The ROK will do its utmost to provide support and cooperation to China.
The current epidemic situation is that students with valid visas in Korea can return to Korea as soon as possible.
If you don't have a Korean visa, you need to change it in China and apply for a visa after working in the consulate.
Undergraduate study in Korea depends on whether the landing visa of Korean undergraduate course has expired. If it has expired, they need to re-submit their visas in China.
If it is still valid before the expiration, you can go back to Korea and change your visa at the Korean Ministry of Justice.
Students who apply for undergraduate studies in Korea can go back to Korea if they have a valid visa.
You can prepare the required materials according to the standards notified by the Korean Ministry of Justice.
For students in language schools, language schools have been closed for several days (the implementation standards of each language school are different). In recent days, the school has sent an email to inform that classes have started one after another.
Yonhap News Agency reported on February 2 1 that the Korean Ministry of Justice said on the same day that in order to prevent and control the spread of novel coronavirus (coronavirus pneumonia-19) in the community, it would improve the relevant procedures and open the group visa extension business to foreign students in all Korean universities.
In this way, the scope of the group visa extension application can be extended from some institutions to all institutions, which is convenient for international students to easily extend their residence through the school. After the implementation of the New Deal, the person in charge of the university will go to the exit-entry administration department to apply for the extension of the collective visa on behalf of our international students. In addition, the Ministry of Justice will set up an online system to handle various procedures, including online application for signing extension.
The Ministry of Justice expressed the hope that this new policy will improve the inconvenience for international students to apply for visa extension, reduce face-to-face contact and prevent the epidemic from spreading in the community.
