28th Yeong-sook from "I Am Solo" directly shared her thoughts on immigrating to the United States.

On May 27, 28th Yeong-sook appeared in a video titled "Can 28th Yeong-sook from I Am Solo Challenge Becoming a Nurse in the US?" released via the YouTube channel 'Thomas & Amco', where she met with Lee Sang-yun (CEO), a comprehensive consulting firm in the US, and discussed various topics.

28th Yeong-sook stated, "My profession is nursing. As a nurse, I think raising children in the US would be more environmentally favorable, but I came for counseling due to vague fears about whether it would be realistically difficult to work as a nurse in the US."

She continued, "Since I am alone, I am curious about how much financial preparation is needed to help with settling down in the US, and other practical matters."

"In the US, nurses are treated better than in other professions," Lee Sang-yun (CEO) replied. "If your children are in first and third grade, that is ideal. In the US, there is a system called After School when raising children. It provides care until the mother returns home after work."

In response, 28th Yeong-sook said, "I work at a Korean medicine hospital, so my annual salary is low. It would be a stretch to economically support my children. I also heard that the reason for considering becoming a nurse in the US is the high salary. Could you tell me specifically how much it is?"

"If a nurse works in California, the starting annual salary is around $90,000. Based on the current exchange rate, that would be approximately 140 million won," Lee Sang-yun (CEO) explained. "Although California has a high cost of living, even with a high salary, you need to take that into account. However, no matter how high the cost of living is, it is not so difficult to live there."

28th Yeong-sook asked, "I started working in the emergency room at Seoul National University Hospital in Korea. Because of that experience, even if my career was interrupted while giving birth, it was easy to return to the hospital. Should I decide where to start my first hospital in the US?" Lee Sang-yun (CEO) responded, "One of the reasons nurses are encouraged to come to the US is that there is a severe shortage of nurses. Unlike in Korea, where it is difficult to enter hospitals after a certain age, the US does not have such restrictions. When your children grow older and begin their studies, they will be settled, and by the time they enter university, they will have enough time to enjoy the life they want in the US."
