Some thoughs after watching a movie I've been watching something every night. Well, unfortunately, almost all are Korean movies or TV shows. Sometimes, those are English stuffs, but british english... I don't think I need british English. Like other Korean, American English is a little bit more "familiar". People say "if you live abroad, you should speak like native speakers." But as a language learner, it is not that easy, to be more honest, it would be almost impossible. Now I think, this has become possible more and more. When I saw some people who lives Korea as a foreigner with some visa like workers or students, their languages were usually English that many Korean want to and need to speak well since they were really young, maybe since they encountered some situation scored by English as study. Actually, at first I really really wondered why they came to Korea. And I regarded they would just enjoy trip or something in Korea. But some of them were experiencing stressful situations like me now. As times goes by, I just think it would be possible if I do the same things without any effort to improve English. If so, I could see my future with low life quality. I also thought, if I just throw away some thoughts as Korean like I should be motivative all the time or do my best and gain a lot as a result/reward, and just live with nature in this beautiful and fertile land, it would be not that bad. Because I've changed many goals of my life since I got educations more. Even if I choose that nature life, there's a lot of work that I have to do for adust to the united states. It's just within 3 minths, still. I have plenty time ahead! Cheer me up!

I've been watching something every night. Well, unfortunately, almost all are Korean movies or TV shows. Sometimes, those are English stuffs, but british english... I don't think I need british English. Like other Korean, American English is a little bit more "familiar".
People say "if you live abroad, you should speak like native speakers." But as a language learner, it is not that easy, to be more honest, it would be almost impossible. Now I think, this has become much more possible.

Even if I choose to live in that environment, there's a lot of work that I have to do for adust? to the united states. It's just within 3 months, still. I have plenty of time ahead! Cheer me up!

Some thoughts after watching a movie

I've been watching something every night. Well, unfortunately, almost all are Korean movies or TV shows. Sometimes, those are English shows, but British English... I don't think I need British English. Like other Korean As it is for other Koreans, American English is a little bit more "familiar".
People say "if you live abroad, you should speak like native speakers." But as a language learner, it is not that easy, to be more honest, it would be almost impossible. But now I think, this has become is possible more and more.
When I saw some people who live in Korea as a foreigner with some visa like workers or students, their languages were usually English, the language that many Koreans want to and need to speak well since they were really young, maybe since they encountered some situation scored by English as study. Actually, at first I really really wondered why they came to Korea. And I regarded thought they would just enjoy their trip or something in Korea. But some of them were experiencing stressful situations like me now.
As times goes by, I start to think it would be possible for me to do the same things without any effort to improve English. But if I did, I could see my future with a low life quality.
I also thought, if I just throw away some thoughts that Koreans have, like that I should be motivated all the time or do my best and gain a lot as a result/reward, and instead just live with nature in this beautiful and fertile land, it would be not that bad. Because I've changed many goals of my life since I gained more education.
However, even if I choose that nature life, there's a lot of work that I have to do to adjust to the United States. It's just within 3 months, still, I have plenty time ahead! Cheer me up!


Note: Your English is very good. Just some small things need to be fixed but your understanding is very good and a native English speaker will understand you very well also, if you keep going like this. You are not far from your goals! Also, I am from Britain, and I can tell you that although American English may be more familiar, both are very helpful and very similar. :) Good luck.
