How can I change from D-4 to D-2 visa in Korea?

Hi everyone ๐Ÿ‘‹ Iโ€™m currently studying Korean language in Seoul with a D-4 visa, and I recently got accepted into a university for a bachelorโ€™s program starting next semester. I wanted to ask if anyone here has experience changing from a D-4 visa to a D-2 student visa inside Korea. What documents are usually required? How long does the process take? Do I need to show a bank balance certificate again? Is it possible to apply before the current visa expires? I checked the HiKorea website, but Iโ€™d really appreciate advice from people who already went through the process ๐Ÿ™ Thank you in advance!

Has anyone tried ordering halal meat or international groceries from Forpang lately? ๐Ÿ‘€

I just found their website while searching for halal food in Korea and the prices actually look pretty decent compared to some stores nearby. They also seem to have Pakistani/Indian groceries and delivery across Korea. Wondering if anyone here has tried it yet and how the delivery/service was?
