Personally I liked it. Even though it had a few glitches. It was nice all in all.

The atmosphere of the orientation was up lifting. And I reunited with a few people from the first orientation. So doing the class participation was more exciting. The lectures seemed to cover material from the previous orientation, but I suppose that is normal. Most of the lectures were informative. The resort itself was in a beautiful area surrounded by a pristine stream and mountains. The rooms were very nice as well more like an apartel not a dormitory. The food provided was of a much higher quality as well. Nothing is perfect, but this is what I liked about it.

I stopped taking you seriously when you said pristine streams? I guess after a couple nights of drinking soju or mahkali I could see how someone would visualize pristine streams in this country. On a serious note, the orientations aren't as bad as people making them out to be. To me they're a place to network and a break from being isolated in your school.
The only thing I hate about those events is the two faced preaching by the coordinators. The coordinators bark all throughout the event how they will not let schools take advantage of their NETs. When called on to back up their words they do the complete opposite and don't support their constituents.
