Yonsei University, Sinchon Campus

This guide to Yonsei University's Sinchon campus in Seoul follows Horace Grant Underwood, an American missionary who arrived in Korea in 1885 and opened Chosun Christian College three decades later with barely eighty students, only to die within the year. It traces how his brother John, a New York businessman, took up the unfinished project, and how that decision shaped the Gothic stone halls still standing on campus. Listen near the tower building bearing the family name.
