On the afternoon of May 12th, an interim exchange for Ajou's Paran Semester was held under the title of ‘Share Challenges & Experiences’ at the Ajou University Outdoor Theater and Yulgok Hall's Video Conference Room.
 
 
In the first part of the event held in the Video Conference Room, Paran Semester participants presented their activities and answered questions from others. Yeong Lim Ji (Department of Culture and Contents), a member of Team Shinabro participating in Paran Semester with web-based dramas, served as the MC. 
 
 
The presentations were given by eight students representing their respective teams. They introduced their teams' tasks and explained their progress so far, their main challenges, and their plans going forward, etc. Participants then shared their ideas and views in a casual setting.
 
 
The second part was a beer party held at the Outdoor Theater. Students continued their exchanges over beer and chicken provided by Oriental Beer and Harim – both partner companies for Paran Semester.
 
 
In his greetings, President Dong Yeon Kim cited The Road Not Taken by Robert Frost, saying, "As Paran Semester participants, you are pioneers who chose not to follow the typical course of our society, but to confront challenges by taking the road not taken by others."
 
 
President Kim went on to say, "I hope that many more Ajou students will join you for such a journey without fearing adventure and challenge."
