Thank you.

People expect students to be students of the universities they want like the sticky yeot on the wall. The sticky yeot would be regarded as a member of the wall for the time being.

OK, here's a suggestion for that last sentence:

Students are expected to remain at their universities as long as the yeot is on the wall.

The expressions you provided are mostly correct, but there are a few minor errors and improvements that can be made. Here is a revised version:

"Yeot is a traditional Korean sweet, similar to taffy, that is made from sweet potatoes and grains. It is known for its sticky texture and is often given as a gift, especially to students. The tradition stems from the belief that yeot's sticky nature will bring good luck and help students pass their exams. In a symbolic gesture, some people place yeot on their walls, hoping that students will stick to their desired universities, just as the yeot sticks to the wall."

This revised explanation provides a clearer and more accurate description of yeot and its significance in Korean culture.
