The team at Gen.G did a fantastic job adapting to how many people were in the practicum. All of the projects for my team really emphasized marketing and creation, which helped in my path to becoming a content producer. Tremendous opportunities were extended to me through mentors to work with C-levels, creating content. Mentors nailed it, creating an environment where we could collaborate with them easily and have a good working relationship. Experience with scripting out and using team input to plot out ideas for content is something that I will take on further in my career. Getting this opportunity to travel abroad and do tangible work really helps steer my path in the right direction.

A place where you're able to meet/work/grow with like minded individuals within the gaming industry. You'll get to work with Gen.G's talent staff to work towards interesting and new ideas with an industry grade scope. You'll also get time to see plenty of Korea with your fellow cohorts to create memories and friendships that will last forever. However be mindful of managing your free time to work ratio as although a good time is great leaving good impressions are even better. Personally I had an amazing time in Korea working with Gen.G and could recommend it to anyone interested in expanding/honing their skillsets.

I really appreciated that they were extremely professional when it came to projects, teaching us what it is like to actually work in the industry. We had to come up with proposals that we pitched to our guest speakers, helping us build important soft skills like presentation, pitch-decking, and teamwork as well as hard skills like Canva, Photoshop, and Microsoft Excel. You will only get the most out of this practicum if you take it seriously. Otherwise, you might lose out on opportunities you didn't throw existed.

This experience is a wonderful mix of professional growth, cultural immersion, and building a great network in the esports industry. This three week program brings a deeper understanding into the world of esports beyond just the matches and the pro players. The project you take on during the three weeks offers a first-hand look into the professional side of the industry. The staff are incredible, are willing to share their knowledge with you, and provide you with plenty of opportunities to grow. My cohort was able to meet people from multiple departments, which gave insight into how every piece of the company fits together. The cultural experiences the program takes you on is another highlight. It contextualises and gives you a better understanding how gaming and esports permeate through society.

If you’re seriously thinking about a career in esports and are looking to learn more or want to take the first step towards it, I would highly recommend this program!

This experience was incredible one. The kind of experience that creates a life-changing impact on you for the rest of your life. Esports has always had an impact on my life in some capacity and this was the first opportunity I've had to truly explore what's behind all the players and fame. Gen. G is filled with wonderfully kind staff and a drive behind them that would inspire any student or recent graduate. Throughout the course of our project we were allowed to stumble, pick ourselves up, and grow not only as individuals but as a group overall. Mentors would step in when asked which allowed for this way of learning to work. Outside the office we were brought on cultural experiences that, while it felt touristy, gave another level of understanding of the Korean market and heritage. I came into the program expecting a basic knowledge of the industry but left with a rich understanding of the Esports market and Korean market.

I genuinely enjoyed my time in this program and strongly recommend it to anyone interested in the esports industry. It’s absolutely worth it—even if you’re new to the field or have little to no prior knowledge. The staff are incredible, and the connections I made here are ones I hope to maintain for the rest of my life. Everyone is truly dedicated to your growth here, and they've continued to support me even after the program. The experiences and lessons you gain through this program can be applied far beyond esports, helping you grow both personally and professionally.

Spending three weeks with Gen.G was an incredible experience that gave me valuable insights into how the esports industry operates. Learning directly from professionals helped me understand better on how they build a strong and sustainable ecosystem.

What impressed me most was how deeply esports is integrated into Korean society. It is treated not only as a form of entertainment but as a legitimate profession supported by structured education. The existence of well-designed esports curriculums—with a focus on integrity, teamwork, and long-term career development—showed me how esports can be both educational and profitable.

Reflecting on this, I see great potential for Indonesia’s esports scene to grow in similar ways, because i do think that edu will transforms socities.

From pitching projects to experiencing Korean culture, Gen.G's Practicum Abroad Program allowed me to try new food, visit a new city, and gain new perspectives from people within the industry to apply to my skillset. I gained a wealth of knowledge and new friends during my 3 weeks, and having a smaller cohort allowed us to bond closely and work well together on our project, thanks to our mentors. Gen.G helped me to develop confidence in what I do as both a person and in my career aspirations, through networking and the program.
