**"Settling in Korea: Essential First Purchases for International Students"**
When I first came to Korea as an international student, the first product I bought was a transportation card, which I purchased at a GS25 convenience store. This was essential for getting around the city. After that, I needed food, so I visited iMart to buy essentials like eggs and vegetables. As a Computer Engineering student, I also needed a laptop, so I bought one through Coupang, an online shopping platform in Korea.
If you're coming to Korea to study or work, I recommend getting your transportation card as soon as possible, stocking up on basic food items, and using online platforms like Coupang for any electronics or other necessities. This will help you settle in quickly without any hassle.
