Story of Kim Miju (class of 2024, digital media major) from South Korea.
As a sophomore majoring in Digital Media at #HIT, Kim Miju has a deep passion for photography.
"I love sharing my campus life on Instagram," she says. "Photos are meaningful to me – they record my past memories and goals. I often take pictures of things happening at school, as it is popular for everyone to post their daily lives online." The rich campus activities provide her with abundant shooting materials. She has made new friends, developed new hobbies and found her future direction here.
"Sharing my life on social media allows my friends and family to understand my studies and life abroad," she explains. "It helps me maintain close connections with them. It also helps me build closer relationships with foreign friends. We often collaborate on planning vlogs and photoshoots, from brainstorming ideas to filming together, and even recreate popular trends on Instagram."
"Although balancing shooting with exams can be challenging," she admits, "the process is rewarding and full of unforgettable memories."
In the future, she plans to continue creating videos and photos. She hopes to film dance videos with the cheerleading team and explore other areas, such as conducting interviews and documenting more campus stories. "I hope my video can serve as a bridge between international students and China, and tell the stories about China that I have learned to the world," she shared.
