This post is based on the itinerary I wrote here :

(in case you want to see places with a map)
I love to learn something new and attend lectures outside of my university!
I really like watching inspiring videos like TED or some science documentary videos!
There are many great videos on youtube, and thanks to internet, it's available to take courses of prestigious university for free at www.coursera.org
Internet is such a great thing!
Life is full of nice things to learn!
However, it's cool to go to a conference or attending a lecture offline, if you're not busy!
I really appreciate that I can learn tons of things thanks to internet. Internet is one of the indispensable things, but learning offline shouldn't be overlooked.
Micimpact near Jonggak is the great place for offline lecture lovers!

It's not a real school, but it's a lecture meeting and conference agency.
It's based in Korea and it aims to hold a big conference like TED.(www.ted.com)
Actually, sometimes it held big conferences where famous people such as Malcolm Gladwell came to give a lecture.
Next year, Alain de Botton will visit Korea to give us inspiring lecture here!
It's really surprising that this company achieves their goal, even if it's not that famous.
Well, in Korea, among young university students and people who love learning, it is getting famous. But, I was very surprised to hear Malcolm Gladwell came to Korea, and he gave a lecture at the conference event Micimpact organized!
The CEO is such a passionate man!
Even if you can't take a lecture, it's totally okay!
There are a cafe to drink some and study rooms!
You need to make a reservation to use a study room. Oh and you need to order one drink.
It's 1500 won (about 1.35 dollar) but for students 1000 won, so it's reasonable!
The cafe is cozy!
It would be nice to study there!
It's more than just a place to study in.
They hold a lot of interesting events too!
They seem to make the most of their space in the building.
On the rooftop, they sometimes throw a special party or they hold rooftop concert events/ rooftop cinema events. In the study-cafe, sometimes there's an interesting flea market!
I joined some of those, and I really enjoyed there.
The thing you shouldn't miss is the view of Seoul on the rooftop, whose photos I'll upload!
Hooray! the view there is sooo awesome!
Anyways, on this post, let me show you pictures of classroom/study room/cafe!

I went to take a lecture where the CEO of micimpact talked about success/growth!
It was surely inspiring and encouraging!
Of course there are many good videos about success/growth,
but the perk of attending offline lecture is
you can be deeply encouraged by the lecturer and other students around you!
This is where you can order drinks like coffee/ice tea/hot chocolate and some desserts.
So..one floor above the cafe, there's a cozy place.
I don't know if you can see the numbers 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,
but those are the name of the study rooms.
It would be cool to study/discuss with friends together separately like that!
Group-study is nice! cuz you can encourage each other :)
The atmosphere is peaceful and cozy!
Let me continue talking about this good place on the following post!
See you there! XD
This is very cool! I want to go, but are the classes/ lectures mostly in Korean? The site is all in Korean :(
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately yes... :'( but sometimes they invite special lecturers or internationally famous writers like Malcolm Gladwell and Alain de Botton.
