The first notebook entry I came to Australia around 8 months ago from South Korea. I am currently taking a 6 month-long English Proficiency course at college. It has been about 5 months in the course, and thanks to my teacher I reckon my writen academic English has improved to some extend. But, the problem is my spoken English. Even though I live in a country where its mother language is English, I have no Australian friend to chat in English. All my classmates are migrants from overseas just like me. Their English level is just about mine. Maybe, I am not that active and outgoing. My English is quite ok, though. I have been to Canada, and learned Enlgish for a year when I was a university student. However, it is still not easy to understand what people say on TV. I estimate I can understand 60% of what people say on here Australian TV. That is not enough at all to me. I could see Korean pop music(K-pop) is quite trendy among some young people around the world, and more people are wishing to learn Korean to grab the meaning of lyrics in K-pop. I wish I could chat with them in English or, of course, Korean in return. Thanks for reading this out. Your correction is welcome!
