Normatjon Sodikov, an Uzbek scholar, found his path to life in Korea through the Global Korea Scholarship (GKS). His older brother's presence in Korea while studying inspired him to explore scholarship options from Uzbekistan. The GKS proved to be a life-changing opportunity for him, eliminating much of the financial and cultural uncertainties associated with studying abroad.
Upon arriving in Korea in 2018, the scholarship provided him with Korean language training and cultural programs, helping him navigate the linguistic and cultural challenges of living in a foreign country. Normatjon's experience highlights the importance of the GKS in assisting Uzbek students like him in adapting to life in Korea and building a successful career there.
By providing financial support and essential cultural foundations, the scholarship enabled Normatjon to focus fully on his studies and start a family in Korea.
