Why Japanese?

おはいよ！

I am Korean by heritage but my exposure to it is limited until just recently when I started college. Since freshman year, I have made an effort to accept more of my Korean heritage: going to Korea on holidays, meeting family more often and making more Korean friends. I want to do the same with Japanese since Japan and Japanese culture always intrigued me even when I was young. There are so many similarities in both Japanese and Korean culture and I want to explore it by learning Japanese and also by visiting Japan. I plan on visiting Japan after I graduate which is a main reason why I am taking Japanese.

どおぞおよろしくおねがいします！
