Abstract: The purpose of this paper is to examine the benefits and challenges of long-term internships through a comparative analysis of overseas internships, overseas online internships, and domestic internships. The results of the analysis suggest that overseas internships have a positive impact on English language learning and cross-cultural understanding but may pose risks in terms of daily life; while overseas online internships can develop English language and technical skills, they also pose challenges in terms of cross-cultural understanding, maintaining motivation, distance from others, and communication environment; and domestic internships can develop behavior as a member of society and confirm overseas orientation.
