My future ambition is to   learn Korean language.  My  aim is  to be proficient in Korean language speaking, reading and writing. I have come to know that  80 million people  speak  Korean language  all over the World and it would be  very helpful for me  in the event I am proficient in the Korean language for my future endeavours.

 

I am interested in Korea while Korean history may not be quite so well known to westerners as that of neighbouring Japan or nearby China, there is still a rich and proud history has Korea  that stretches back to centuries. While a lot of the ancient temples were destroyed or defaced during the Korean War, it states that there are   still remaining most  of them.

 

There are  lot of reasons why Korea  I will always hold a special place in my heart. Korean culture is a fascinating blend of old traditions being merged with western ideals. Korean music, whether it is traditional throat singing or Pop, is another of those blends of old and new.

I have  found Koreans are  polite and enthusiastic people.  There is a real enthusiasm for learning more about Korean people, their culture, food habits and  everything else  is really endearing.

I like Korea  very much and interested   in Korean people   and their cultural values  therefore, I  thought of  going to Korea   be  mix with the Korean people  learn the language, while learning their cultural  traditions. This  desire induced in me  because I  was  very much interested in Korean  tele-dramas which are  screamed in  Sri Leninakan television. 

There are even now lot of Korean people in Sri Lanka and  I  think  lot more people will arrive  as  tourists  to this country as  Sri Lanka  tourism industry  is developing rapidly after the war situation.

Korean cuisine as a national cuisine known today has evolved through centuries of social and political change. Originating from ancient agricultural and nomadic traditions in southern Manchuria and the Korean peninsula, Korean cuisine has evolved through a complex interaction of the natural environment and different cultural trends.

I expect  after my studying Korean language and  return back to Sri Lanka  and commence  my own business. Equipped with the Korean language, my dream is to become a  owner of a business in Sri Lanka. My objective  is  importing  computers and computer accessories from Korea and  distribute in Sri Lanka. I am certain that  Knowledge of Korean language will help me  to develop this business.
