Wanted to write bout this cute Korean guy weeks ago.. since the first day he attended the same class with me.

Basically, there are 2 Koreans. He and his friend, both from Korean Hallym University enter University of Malaya based on the students' exchange programme. They look cute! Wish to get to know more about them but they're simply too far away from our seats in class. Thus, no chance to chat with them at all.
However, maybe it's predestined. Finally, I got to chat a little bit with one of them today! His name is HanDong Rue.

Due to the assignment thingy, we managed to interact a bit as well as to ask each other some questions. Actually, they are facing a big barrier everytime they attend class. Of course, language used is English. But, they are having difficulty in interpreting and comprehending every sentence whenever the lecturer speaks and also, when we communicate with them. Whenever there is this chance, they would stay back after class for a short while just to ask the lecturer for which they find it tough to understand some of the parts.

I embraced and admired their courage to adapt to such an environment. Some Koreans are not that fluent in English speaking too, fyi. Therefore, I'd be very willing to help them if they need any. HanDong gave each of our group members a namecard. He specially printed it which contains his personality, the friendliness and also his contact number. It's awesome!

I'm wondering. Why some of the classmates don't really like to talk to him?
Perhaps they find it troublesome, with the extra need of speaking words by words and the additional attention paid to them because them have quite a lot of queries.
I don't find it cumbersome at all. That's strange.

To me, I always think that if the foreign students need any help.. we as the local representatives, must be able to assist them. That is how we show respects and care for them as they are so far away from home.

Fyi, I'm going to lose my voice very soon. Sigh.. Presentation and test are at this Saturday and another presentation in the coming Monday.
