Thanks Charly for posting this vid!!! i've been debating teaching in SK for the past couple of years and although I had Korean roommates in college I was thinkin, "How am I gonna get my hair done?" lol but I see you all didn't let somethin as simple as hair keep you from the experience! I can't wait to go now! Thanks again!
That's fab that you met with them!...I signed on to their Facebook group earlier this year after I found a reference to it on a member's blog about living there. I read more than I post - but hope to interact more as we draw closer to 2012: my goal year for traveling to SK. :o )
Im planning on going to S.Korea after I finish college though :) (only 18) but I loooovee the language and culture so much! Im still teaching myself on reading and writing in Hangul but Im thinking of paying for some Korea language classes :\ the pronouncation are a bit hard for me and it would be better if I got a teacher to help me. Still, I cant wait to hopefully teach aboard!!!
@weeklywisdom I've seen this guy in another video somewhere....just trying to remember where. It's true that there aren't alot of bald asian guys around. They usually all seem to have nice thick black hair!
I love events like this. :) Although I'm a person who can adapt pretty well, I think spending time in another country will make me miss the diversity of the States.
@msb5gurl nadoo ^^ I'm 15 also and I'm also trying to learn Korean by myself (it's not that bad ^^) I'm can read and speak fluently in both English and Spanish... So my plan is to either teach English and/or spanish in Korea :)
@msb5gurl can i ask you what materials you've been using to learn korean? i would like to begin teaching myself but i really don't know where to start.. thank you!
@burningstarry1 the books i've used are korean for begginers: mastering conversations by henry amen 20$, basic korean by pimselur almost 27$ i think, and the essential guide to customs and cultrue by james hoars i paid 11$ for that. you have to know culture to understand the language. i use talktomeinkorean. com to help with the whole writing aspect, it's really helpful.i used shared talk also, even Wikipedia helps but i try and stray away from it but wiki has become more on point to this day.
@msb5gurl That's great! Time is your friend because by the time you get there you'll be near fluent, right? Always a plus - it makes a huge difference when living abroad. Even if you know just a little bit of the local language - you'll see! :o)
I would not wanna go to Itaewon... Foreigners everywhere so do I say hi or keep walking? lol
