These letters helped bridge the distance between the friends, setting the stage for the visit to UTS.   To the bonding through small screens   Following the email exchanges, UTS and Gimje Geomsan students became more and more close-knit after having the two online meetings held in May. During these sessions, students introduced the unique aspects of Vietnamese and Korean cultures, including the cuisine, people, and historical landmarks. Additionally, they shared about their schools and what a day in the life of a primary student in Vietnam or Korea looks like.     Despite being separated by a screen, every interaction between UTS students and Gimje Geomsan Primary students reflected confidence and bravery. This demonstrated their pride in their national identities: culture, people, and historical values. These activities helped students from both sides gain valuable knowledge from their international peers and set the stage for their upcoming in-person meeting in June.
