Icebreaker competition :)

So, you've been studying English for a while. You're now in a foreign country. 

Perhaps you're in some waiting area, sitting next to friendly-looking native English speaker.

You're shaking a bit, but would like to find the courage to start a conversation.

You smile... then you say... what?   :)

You need an 'icebreaker', meaning a line to start the conversation (to... 'break the ice').

Here's two suggestions on my part:

1. (A slightly funny, but fairly polite way)

Hello :)

I am from Korea (or Japan, or some other country).

My English will be good someday. But not yet ! :)

You look... friendly.

Will you help my poor English a bit?  :)

2. (A funny way, if you are a bit more daring and can act).

Hello :)

How's your English today?

I want to speak English GOOD, because it's A LOT OF FUNNY !

[This approach is kind of cheeky, because the above line is incorrect but in a quite funny way.

See how he reacts then take it from there... By the way the correct way is this:

"I want to speak English WELL, because it's A LOT OF FUN !" ]

What do you guys think? Would you try any of these?

And how would YOU... 'break the ice'.
