Randomness...: Korean Friends

Anyeong haseyo! Early this year, around March, I received an email from a Korean girl inviting me to a free korean class every week. (Before this there were some Koreans who came to Malaysia for a short mission/study trip and I get to know some of them. Then one of them pass my email address to the Korean girl who was offering free Korean classes.) At first I was a bit skeptical but then I thought: "why not?" since its free =) Furthermore, I was addicted to a Korean drama called Princess Hours and it somehow triggered my interest to learn korean =p

So I went ahead. Little did i know that I will be making several Koreans friends whom I admit are the one of the nicest people around. The first korean class there was only me and another girl, Lee Sun (2nd year Engineering Faculty). The korean class was held in a condo and it was owned by a korean couple. When we finally met, the korean girl introduced herself as Miso(not her full name) and she looks more like a Malaysian than a Korean. She is cute!

The korean couple has 2 little daughters(Sarah and Yurah) who are very cute>.< (Yes, they look really Korean). There was another Korean guy living with them whose name was Peter and he also taught us in the korean class. We started our lesson by learning the 5 basic vowels and we were given a textbook each. The class lasted like 1 and a half hours. After that, we were served with a delicious meal of korean food! And each meal there is always kimchi=) And before we leave, we would sing a korean christian song^^

I really enjoyed the korean class and I was there almost every week(we stop for 2 months during the semester break). Now the class have grown to about 5-6 regular people. Occasionally, we would have a small korean party during the weekends and we would play korean games and enjoy korean food! I enjoyed those moments very much! One thing about the korean class that strike me the most is their hospitality. They are all Christians by the way and Sarah's dad is a pastor in Korea. They are willing to come to Malaysia just to have free koreans class for us and even provided us with free meals. Somehow in my heart I feel ashamed that even our own Christians don't go that far just to evangelize to people from other country. And they took pains to learn English for that very purpose. May God bless them for what they have done!
