I had an overall great experience with Beyond Academy in Seoul. The staff always offered amazing support regarding questions and was super friendly. You could always join activities with others and built friendships. The internship I did was also very trustworthy and I barley had any major problems, especially with regular check-in’s. I spent 5 months abroad and I felt very safe. A lot of information was always offered, as well as good preparation before coming and joining. I had the best time abroad!

I spend 6 weeks in Seoul during summer 2026. If you are considering this trip you will have a blast! You should do some research before you come so that you are adequately prepared for anything that might come your way. If you like to shop bring some extra luggage!I’m super glad to have the opportunity and the community in Seoul’s made sure I got the most of my 6 weeks there! I made so many friends. Any issues I had there were solved relatively quick and they even helped out with small things here and there.

Would definitely recommend this program for interns who also want to experience a foreign country! Beyond gives plenty of options for host countries, and the team is very helpful before and during the trip! Everyone I met while abroad were so nice as well as the other interns, I will never forget them!

Only downside is the price of the trip. Very expensive, but the program also includes two activities every week, but only some are paid for. The difference in accommodation locations were pretty big, and you don't get a say in where you stay. Some interns had to travel over an hour every day for work, but for me personally, I was put in a spot one stop away from my job on the subway, which was perfect.

Interning abroad for six weeks was a perfect amount of time to see everything that I wanted to. The Seoul team was very helpful in setting up our subway cards, and answering any questions we had. The range of activities set up for us were very big, some days we visited historical sites, others would be more modern. I feel like I got the full Seoul experience! Thank you Beyond!

Through Beyond Academy, I was able to land an amazing internship and explore Seoul for six weeks! Every step of the way Beyond Academy was there to help and guide me. From helping me prep for interviews or resolving issues with my accommodations, I am so glad that I took this opportunity! This was my first time traveling by myself ever, and I was very nervous about being alone in a new country! But the coordinators in Seoul were so helpful and kind! They made sure that my trip to Seoul went smoothly and that I got to my accommodations safely. Whenever I had a problem I knew I could reach out to them for help!

Exploring the city with the coordinators and other interns was definitely a highlight of my trip. Also, working in Seoul is such an amazing experience. I learned so much from just six weeks working as an intern that will help me during the rest of my career. If you are thinking about interning abroad, I would recommend Beyond Academy!

I was in Seoul for 6 weeks with beyond academy and my experience was amazing, from the beginning with matching me to a company and all the way to my destination, beyond academy was so supportive, helpful and accommodating. When it came to the application, BA made sure I was set up with a company that matched my goals and aspirations which I really appreciated.

It was my first time flying so far from home and alone, but BA was always there to help and support with anything I needed. The days out with the co-ordinators and other interns were 100% the highlights of my time in Seoul! A huge thank you to all the Co-ordinators for being so kind and welcoming, they definitely made my trip a whole lot better. I can’t recommend this experience enough, if you’re thinking about it, I say just do it! It’s a great opportunity to learn more about your career journey and also a great place rich in culture and history! Thank you to Beyond Academy!!!

I chose Beyond Academy after careful review of what they offer and how they can support me both during my search for an internship spot and throughout my stay in Seoul. They were rapid in finding me the best spots possible, and helped me with prep and post interview placement, as well what to look out for when in Seoul. The team here in Seoul was also amazing, and always there to help me. I can only recommend them and say that they helped ease the entire process for me! A big thank you to Beyond!

My overall experience was fantastic with the Beyond program. I rarely had any issues during my time with the program. Two of the best things with the program are the friends you make with the coordinators, other interns, and colleagues, and then the communication that comes with the coordinators. When things may go haywire a bit, speak to your coordinators. They are there for YOU. They literally help and walk you through any issues that may arise. Be it as simple as asking where to purchase groceries to talking about job details with your internship. I'm also someone who enjoys exercising to stay in shape, so if you're someone who doesn't like walking, you may have a little bit of struggle, but it's not that bad overall. I'm typically open to eating just about anything; so I didn't have any issues with eating at all the places suggested going to. It's a bit of a challenge if you're vegan though. Not impossible, but just harder. I also have some knowledge of the Korean language, so the barrier wasn't an issue for me. If you don't really understand Korean, but sure to have a translator app. Not everyone can speak English at a comfortable level.

I completed the Beyond Academy Immersive Internship Program in Seoul, where I did a fashion internship, and I genuinely cannot recommend it enough. This experience has honestly been life-changing and has shaped me into such a new version of myself.

Beyond Academy helped me grow in ways I didn’t even realise I needed. My skills developed so much, but more than anything, my confidence grew massively. Living and working abroad pushed me out of my comfort zone in the best way possible, and I now feel way more comfortable in my work, in new environments, and in myself overall. I’ve come away feeling inspired, motivated, and so much more sure of what I’m capable of.

One of my favourite parts of the program was the weekly events Beyond Academy organised. They were genuinely so fun and such a good way to explore Seoul, meet new people, and actually say yes to things I probably wouldn’t have done otherwise. They really helped push me out of my comfort zone, and we got to experience so many traditional Korean activities, which was honestly amazing and made the whole experience feel super immersive and special.

The support from the Beyond Academy team was incredible from start to finish. There was always someone there if you needed a chat, some advice, or support if something didn’t feel quite right. Everyone on the team is genuinely so kind, welcoming, and supportive — some of the loveliest people I’ve met — and it made such a difference knowing you were never doing this experience alone.

I’ve also made the most amazing friends from all over the world, friendships I know I’ll have for life. If you’re thinking about doing an internship abroad and want something that helps you grow professionally and personally while still being fun, exciting, and supportive, I couldn’t recommend Beyond Academy more. This experience has given me confidence, clarity, and memories I’ll cherish forever!!
