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.

During my six-month study abroad period, I experienced a lot of things. Among them, I would like to write down the most memorable experience I have experienced in Japan.
First of all, it is a Japanese food experience. Originally, I liked food, and I enjoyed Japanese food such as sushi, ramen, takoyaki, and yakitori in Korea, so the evaluation of Japanese food was very good. However, when I actually came to Japan and tried the food myself, I could hardly find anything that didn't taste good because it really suits my taste. Especially, I like sushi the most It was like a yakitori. I like the fact that there are seats available to sit alone when I go to a restaurant, and I think the big advantage is that there are many people who eat alone, so I can't look around.
Second, I enjoyed the festival in the summer. I was able to experience Japanese culture properly by watching fireworks and people wearing yukata at the summer festival I saw in anime. Unlike Korea, I was very envious of Japan, which has many festivals, and I wish Korea could create a culture where people can wear traditional costumes such as Hanbok and hold festivals. Also, watching fireworks was an interesting factor, and having small fireworks with friends was also interesting.
Finally, I practiced teaching and service at a Japanese school. I had a very good opportunity to teach Hangul at a Korean school in Osaka, and I was able to experience Japanese high schools while traveling back and forth from Kobe to Osaka. I was able to find commonalities and differences between Korean students and Japanese students, and they helped me prepare Japanese school meals and Japanese school festivals. What I envied the most was that unlike Korean students, Japanese students don't have much pressure on the "admissions" system. It was impressive to see him doing club activities for what he really wanted to do. The transportation expenses were very burdensome, but I'm glad that the scholarship relieved me of the burden. Thank you very much for having a good experience to experience Japanese office workers while traveling back and forth between Osaka and Kobe.
