It's not just about learning the Korean language...

It's been 10 months since I started taking Korean language classes. My class is now at Level 4.

But this learning journey has gone beyond the language. It is also about culture and friendship.

Last evening, our class brought our Teacher and 4 Korean students (who are in Singapore to learn English) for Bak Kut Teh at Song Fa.

Yumz!

There were 16 of us (including a classmate's 7 year old daughter). Can you tell who's Singaporean and who's Korean?

'Good Fren' joined us for dinner too!

After dinner, we made our way to Tanjong Pagar aka Little Korea for Makgeolli at this cute little Korean joint called Koko RooLoo, opposite Amara Hotel.

Makgeolli is incomplete without some side dishes!!

We also had a surprise for one of the Korean students. It's his birthday!!

It's me, posing with the birthday boy! He's a final year Engineering undergraduate. Eventually, he was chatting with 'Good Fren' about lan gaming. =_=

We chatted, drank, took pics and laughed alot... It's a great way to spend a Friday evening! =))
