What happens if the angle of incidence is 0?

$\begingroup$

While studying about Refraction, the following doubt came into my mind. The author of the textbook mentions that if the light wave is incident normal to the surface, it will travel "undeviated" in the other medium. Shouldn't this fact imply that the wave velocity in the other medium is the same as the light is not really "bent" or refracted?
