Opportunity of the studying abroad, purpose

I had a dream of studying abroad since I was young. When I was in middle school, most of the overseas language training programs participated. I've been to Japan before, and I've experienced a lot of things in a short period of a week. Most of the Japanese were kind to foreigners, and they found learning languages interesting.
I had a dream of going abroad and speaking a foreign language fluently and having at least two languages. When I was a student, I dreamed of becoming a diplomat who was good at foreign languages. It was because it looked very cool when I saw them using languages from various countries.
As I entered university, I started majoring in law, and while listening to the professors' stories about studying abroad, I wanted to study languages and law more. In particular, Japanese law was very similar to Japan's, so I wanted to come to Japan to study kanji very hard. And it's so good.
The main purpose of my study abroad is to improve my foreign language skills. Since I was young, I have been interested in Japanese because I liked Japanese music and animation, but due to the nature of cramming education in Korea, it was a sad reality that I had no choice but to focus on English. I wanted to study Japanese in earnest, but I didn't have time. In the end, his English ability was only limited to reading comprehension, and he came to study abroad with only a little knowledge of Japanese.
I feel that my Japanese has improved every day, but when I first came to Japan and went to a convenience store, I couldn't understand the staff at all, but from the third day, I was like, "Do you need an envelope?" When I was able to answer "It's OK!" while listening to the words "Do you need a receipt?" I felt that Japan had improved my skills and knew that I was a person who could do it, and my self-esteem and self-esteem increased.
While studying abroad, I learned about global communication by meeting not only Japanese and Korean students but also people of various nationalities, learning not only Japanese culture but also various cultures, talking with different values, and understanding each other's cultures.
Finally, I realized the meaning of independence. In Korea, I started to spend time with my parents and do a lot of will, but in Japan, I started to develop my independence by solving everything by myself. This may also be the purpose of studying abroad.
