I would say that when I was a child, my dream was to learn the Korean language. I wanted to learn Korean because when I was in school, I watched Korean dramas. I loved them, and I wanted to try to talk like the actors and use their speech. I wanted to be fluent in speaking Korean. So, I decided to learn the language, and my biggest aim was that when I finished my lessons and achieved my English certificate, I would then focus on learning Korean. I believe it will help me in the future, especially if I travel to Korea or work in the entertainment industry. I think everything will help me in the future. Additionally, I want to learn horseback riding, which is a unique skill. I know it may seem unusual, but I want to try it. My ultimate aim is to be a model, to build confidence and energy, and to boost my self-esteem. I believe this will enhance my mindset because it gives off positive vibes and helps me feel more feminine. So, I think pursuing these skills will be beneficial for me.
