Have you ever heard a song being sung and were instantly transported back in time? Or you listened to a piece of music and suddenly had a change of mood?
Hello everyone, my name is Deattoh, a Liberian and one of three siblings. I am a 26-year-old and I will bring you to update on events from Daejeon City. I found business quite interesting especially accounting which was my major during my undergraduate studies. However, a strong desire to build ties between my country and others influence me to pursue a career in International Relations. What country could have been better if not South Korea that brings international students from more than 150 countries yearly! I embarked on this journey in 2019 at the Chungnam National University (CNU), Daejeon.
As a GKS scholar, I am opportune to meet people from different parts of the world and experience a variety of cultures. South Korea with its ancient, transformative history and culture is known for its dramas, festivals, traditional dishes, museums, and K-pop. Of these many are drawn to K-pop for its amazing visual, beauty and rhythm. As a young lady, positive change is something I do not take lightly but one of my greatest challenges in life is dealing with 'fear'. Being a lover of music, when facing challenges, I sit quietly through memory lane with music that seems to make the future looks brighter. That’s the power of music!
These are a few of my outside interest:
Singing
Photographing
Cooking
Workout
Outing with friends
Adversity is one of the most challenging and yet rewarding obstacles that life puts in front of you. Life in Korea has been good and challenging especially learning the Korean language as an international student. Yet I enjoyed a few great places like Seoul park, Lotte World, Hanok Village, and the many cultural experiences.

As I’m passionate about taking photos, my goal is to become a unique photographer, writing great articles and exploring in other areas as I will be working in the contents and shooting department. Looking forward to establishing good networking with everyone as I try my best in bringing a report from Daejeon City.
