I enlisted in Koreyano 11 because it is required in my degree program and also because I took Koreyano 10 last semester.

I want to learn Korean because I love K-Pop and because I love learning languages.

I love EXO, Seventeen, NCT, Day6, and Got7. I really liked watching 'Our Beloved Summer' and I like eating 김치.

Overall, I expect to improve my knowledge and skills in Korean that I've learned from Koreyano 10.

Always do your best and don't forget to enjoy while studying.

I enlisted in Koreyeano 11 because my program requires me to take at least 6 units of a foreign language.

I want to learn Korean since I am a huge fan of Korean media and also because I think learning this language could give me great opportunities in the future.

I'm a fan of several different K-pop groups but my current favorite is Seventeen! I got to see them live last month in their Follow to Bulacan concert, which is an experience I am truly grateful for.

I expect the lessons in class to be a bit more challenging than Koreyano 10 but I also expect that I would be able to develop my skills in Korean throughout the semester.

My message to myself is to always try to put your best effort in everything you work on and all your efforts will not be put to waste. 화이팅!

I enlisted in Koreyano 11 because I really enjoyed my Koreyano 10. I thought it would be fun if I could continue the course. Though, I am a bit nervous entering Koreyano 11 because it has been two semesters since I took Koreyano 10 and I am unsure if I have retained much of what I have learned before.

My motivation in learning Korean is primarily rooted in my interest in K-pop which extended to watching Korean media such as K-Drama or Korean films.

My fav K-Pop group at the moment is New Jeans. I also enjoy watching Korean mukbang videos.

For this class, I expect it to be a safe space for beginners in the Korean language. As I have said, it has been a while since I took Koreyano 10 so I think it’ll take some time for me to jog my Koreyano memory. I would really appreciate for the patience and accomodation of the instructor and my classmates.

i would tell myself: “Fighting, AJ! Last sem mo na sa UP so make it count!”

I enlisted in Koreyano 11 because Koreyano 10 was one of the most fun subjects I have taken so far and am really excited to continue my Korean-learning journey. :D

Aside from wanting to understand K-dramas without subtitles, I want to learn Korean because I generally find language learning to be an enjoyable activity. So why Korean specifically? I also just think that it's a really beautiful language and it's pleasant to speak and listen to.

I used to be a big fan of BTS and Twice. I also used to watch K-dramas pretty frequently. My favorite K-drama of all time is Moon Lovers! I know it's pretty unhealthy but I'm also obsessed with Samyang Buldak Ramen (cheese flavor) hehe.

I expect the class to be just as enjoyable as Koreyano 10 was, while amping up the difficulty level. I learned a lot from Koreyano 10 outside of vocab and grammar, like about Korean culture and practices, and I think that will also be the case in Koreyano 11!

As the semester starts, I want to tell myself that no matter what difficulties I face, I should remind myself of my love for learning because it's what fuels me to persevere and do my best. :D But at the same time, I should know how to take breaks and ask for help from people when I need it, instead of pushing myself too hard all the time.

I enlisted Koreyano 11 mainly because for the past semesters, the time of Kor 11 always hits some other subjects that I think is most needed for the semester instead :")). Also, I did really enjoy Koreyano 10 and would like to learn more about the language. Currently, because of these courses, I'm looking into enrolling in Korean classes even outside the university to further supplement my knowledge.

I'd like to learn Korean mainly because since when I was little, I've always wanted to learn a language, but I didn't know what. Until when I became a Kpop stan, I found Korean interesting and would like to learn how to speak it.

Currently, I'm not stanning as much as before. However, I do like to listen to SEVENTEEN, TXT, ITZY, Le Sserafim, a little bit of ASTRO (May Moonbin be at peace <33) and any other Kpop song that's a banger (I prefer refreshing/cute/goodboy concepts). I'm also interested in covering Kpop dances and also aspiring to be an idol in the future! (ofc in the PPOP scene).

I'd like to tell myself: "Be sure of yourself and your choices. You know what you want for yourself. Trust that you're making the right decisions."

I enlisted in Koreyano 11 cuz Ma'am Yen made me do it >_< 💓 My experience learning a foreign language for the first time last semester in Koreyano 10 was memorable and unforgettable because I was accompanied by a helping relationship with my classmates and 선생님. Aside from 6 units of language elective being required in my program, this positive and constructive learning environment we developed made me love the Korean culture even more, and to be a lover of culture is to speak its soul.

In Senior High School, we did a study about the familial relationship of a "comfort woman" mother and her daughter, rigorously digesting all possible literature available on the internet. In the existing researches, I found out there were also Korean women who were victims of the "comfort women" system (their calls for justice never faded away). My interest in the history of Korea as a nation started there, supplemented further by Korean literature after reading Human Acts by Han Kang and Pachinko by Min Jin Lee; and after tearfully watching Malmoe directed by Eom Yu-na. All of these flickered a motivation within me to continue Koreyano 11 because of their powerful message (perhaps, not all) in forwarding human rights, genuine freedom, and justice---the core of my degree program---all rooted in historical accounts and narratives.

My favorite kdrama are 갯마을 차차차 and 빈센조. But now I hate 송중기 🤬 My favorite Korean food is 김밥 and 자장면.

Still as fun as Koreyano 10, but more challenging.

Wag panay ganda-gandahan 😞 mag-aral k nmn

In the middle of the first semester, I was actually debating whether I should take Psych 101 as my cognate course for the second semester or continue with Koreyano 11 after taking Koreyano 10. It was quite difficult to decide, considering that I really wanted to take both, but after I realized how much I enjoyed learning about Korean culture (not only by myself, but with my classmates and our 선생님, as well) as I learned its language, I decided to push through with enlisting in Koreyano 11.

I enlisted Kor 11 because I enjoyed taking Kor 10 last semester, and I figured that while I have the chance to take it under you (freshie prio), I'll take the chance hehehe.

I want to learn Korean because aside from wanting to understand k-dramas without subtitles, I want to be able to read Manhwas too without having to wait for the translations... 💔 (which usually take weeks, or even months....)

My favorite k-drama would probably be twenty-five twenty-one, doctors, and business proposal; while my favorite food would be samgyup!! #samgyuploverforever!!

I hope that I'll be able to learn a lot more not just Korean, but also the culture behind it. I think it will be more challenging because of I'll have to remember and apply the concepts I've applied during Kor 10 to Kor 11, but I'm looking forward to that!

Don't be too hard on yourself but make sure to focus on your priorities! Hardwork always prevails, so keep giving your best this sem!!! :)

I already took Koreyano 10 last semester under KC선생님. I enlisted in Koreyano 11 mainly to follow the curriculum of my degree program in CRS, i.e., we are required to pass a minimum of 6 units in a foreign language; subsequently, I want to accomplish the minimum required units of foreign language as soon as possible with Koreyano 10 lessons as fresh as a hooked raw fish in my brain. :D

I enlisted in Koreyano 11 bec. its the "next step" after taking up Koreyano 10, but to be specific on why i chose Koreyano as my language elective out of the others is bec. i've grown to have immense appreciation of their culture when i became a K-pop stan and a K-drama fan.

I want to learn Korean for clout(1/2 eme). I've always dreamt of knowing a foreign language talaga, so with that reason on top of my other reasons such as: (1) To understand Korean stuff i watch without subtitles; (2) To know Korean enough to be able to speak & understand it if ever mapadpad aq sa Korea and; (3) To have a deeper understanding and ample knowledge of the very interesting culture of the nation.

So the fist exposure i had with K-dramas was with Boys over Flowers and Dream High so from there, I've loved any genres that involves Romance (esp yung may love triangles) like Start Up, True Beauty, While you were sleeping!!

For K-Pop, the first group i stanned was Black Pink but i wasn't that tutok w/ it(more on a listener lang talaga). Nung nag pandemic, sa K-Pop ko literal nahanap yung comfort and motivation sa lyf. From there, I stanned BTS, Seventeen, Twice, Enhypen, TXT, Stray Kids, and IVE (to the level na I collected PC's and albums, laging on time with all the updates, nood ng lives, stream ng mv's, pagvote sa mga competitions hshdhjj). Although i'm not that active anymore unlike before, I still listen to new songs from them as well as from new artists.

My expectations is that this would be a fun class despite it being very challenging. I also expect that it would be very engaging(based sa energy ni Ma'am and klasmeyts hehe)

Ate ko pau, sana ayus ayusin mo na mga desisyon mo sa bohai!! Wag masipag pagdating sa gala tapos sobrang tamad na pag dating sa school works shahhshahah!!!!
