As soon as you get to Yongin University, please keep an eye out for building 7. None of the campus maps I saw were very helpful, but you’ll figure it out! Luckily, the campus isn’t too big. If you spot another lost soul, it’s probably one of our event attendees. Say hi—it might make the search more fun!
