During these next two weeks, I am going to do something different to improve my Korean. I am going to watch a feature-length film in Korean every weekend. I will make sure that I watch them without subtitles to help me understand and open my ears to new words that I do not understand. I have decided to watch New World, a recent gangster movie that has a lot of dialogue, and Ode to My Father, a classic movie about the struggle that men in the early 90’s went through in South Korea.
I will watch these movies, write down words I didn’t understand, and figure out the meaning to subjects that I am not familiar with. I will use the internet to research and define these terms, subjects, and topics. Most importantly, I will try to utilize these things I learn in a casual conversation with my language partner or even other Korean students/professors.
