⭐️ Meet our intern Zey! Warm welcome to the FNF team :)

“Hello everyone!
My name is Zey, and I’m excited to begin my three-month internship at the FNF Korea office here in Seoul.
I study Korean Studies at Freie Universität Berlin and already had the incredible opportunity to spend a year abroad at Yonsei University from 2022 to 2023. That experience left a lasting impact on me, and I knew right away: I needed to come back and not just to visit or study, but to grow professionally and contribute to Korean-German relations in a meaningful way.
Over the past year, my studies had a deeper focus on international politics, taking courses in international relations, diplomacy, and digital Korean media. This intensified my strong interest in political work and with Korea at the heart of my academic and personal journey, interning at the Friedrich Naumann Foundation in Seoul felt like the perfect next step.
I was especially drawn to the Foundation’s diverse projects and its open, multilingual work culture where Korean, English, and German come together, just like in my own background. After four and a half years of studying Korean and immersing myself in the country’s culture, as well as its political landscape, I’m excited to deepen my understanding of liberal policy work and international cooperation.
I am truly grateful for this opportunity and look forward to the journey ahead as part of the FNF team!”

💌 Farewell from Wencke
"Within six very insightful and interesting weeks my internship at the FNF Korea office has now come to an end- way too soon, if I might add. I had a great time, personally and professionally, expanding my horizon and learning from my experienced colleagues at the office. Being directly involved in hosting events and meeting with FNF Korea-Partners was a great honour and a lesson I wouldn't ever want to miss.

What I personally would like to highlight is the ability to see results of my work immediately, be it through published articles or networking at events. After these six weeks I can finally say that I managed to learn a lot about myself and the professional sphere that FNF Korea supports and shapes in South Korea and beyond. Thank you 에프엔에프!" – Wencke

Today, Wencke completed her six-week internship with us at FNF Korea. Wencke, thank you for your energy and contribution throughout your time here. We wish you all the best for what lies ahead! 🌏✨
