Every summer, Dong Nai Technology University (DNTU) warmly welcomes friends from Hoseo University, Republic of Korea, bringing new energy and vibrant intercultural experiences to the campus. As Summer 2026 comes to a close, it leaves behind countless unforgettable memories—beginning with joyful smiles at the Opening Ceremony and ending with heartfelt farewells, warm embraces, and promises to meet again at the Closing Ceremony.

Amid the familiar sounds of cicadas and the summer sunshine in Trang Dai, DNTU became a place where languages and cultures came together. Greetings of "Annyeonghaseyo" blended naturally with "Xin chào," classrooms became spaces for meaningful interaction, and every conversation helped build stronger connections between Vietnamese and Korean students.

Simple everyday moments became treasured memories. Vietnamese bánh mì was happily shared alongside steaming plates of tteokbokki during the International Food Festival. Team games, tug-of-war competitions, cultural performances, and volunteer activities filled the campus with laughter, proving that differences in language and culture can easily be bridged through friendship, mutual respect, and shared experiences.

This year's program also marked another meaningful chapter in the more than 11-year partnership between PAS and DNTU. Over the years, this enduring collaboration has provided generations of students from both universities with opportunities to learn, volunteer, exchange cultures, and grow together while strengthening the friendship between Vietnam and the Republic of Korea.

DNTU extends its sincere appreciation to Professor Cho Sang Woo, Professor Yoon Eun Seok, and Mr. Yoo Hyun Jae for their dedicated leadership, thoughtful guidance, and unwavering support throughout the program. The University also expresses its heartfelt gratitude to every member of "XIN CHÀO HO" from Hoseo University for their commitment to educational volunteer activities and meaningful cultural exchange.

Special thanks are extended to DNTU's faculty and staff for their continuous support in ensuring the smooth operation and safety of the program. DNTU also gratefully acknowledges the enthusiasm, hospitality, and dedication of the DNTU Buddies Team Club and all DNTU students, whose warmth and friendship made our Korean guests feel truly welcome.

Although every summer eventually comes to an end, the friendships created, the knowledge shared, and the memories made will continue to inspire everyone involved. These lasting connections reflect the true value of the long-standing partnership between DNTU and Hoseo University and reaffirm both institutions' shared commitment to international education, cultural understanding, and global citizenship.

Thank you to everyone who helped make Summer 2026 an unforgettable journey. We look forward to welcoming our friends back next summer and creating even more meaningful memories together.
