hiiiiiiii. it’s @aliceusa here with too many projects and too little time!
so (not) recently i decided i’d learn korean. despite my family’s pressure on me my whole life to learn indonesian or vietnamese. well, it’s not like i haven’t tried, but let’s just say... i’d mess up i’m not just english, but vietnamese and indonesian to my family.
so... korean? what’s so great about it?
i could honestly care less about understanding idols or k-dramas, because subs are there for a reason. but there’s something attractive about korean. the language is beautiful to me, and can be used for a future job, as korea has been becoming more popular.
kpop and kdramas are amazing and all but honestly, the korean culture and all of it is just simply amazing.
learning a language is harder than learning two instruments at once (trust me, that’s also what i’m doing) but it’s also very very rewarding. as a person who can’t be very public about my korean-learning, the end result is very important to me. i don’t learn something because of popularity, and i don’t care if it’s what everyone is doing. i just can’t wait for the day i can say, “i’m self-taught in korean.”
