Abstract

"Last year, when I was in military service in South Korea, I was taking a subway to go home during my break. I was waiting for my subway, wearing a military uniform and carrying a backpack. Then one girl came to me and asked, “How do I go to the Sinsa station” (one of the famous subway stations in Korea)? She was a Korean-American and asked me in English. I was very frightened and surprised to hear the question in English, but I explained slowly with my bad English. She understood my words, showed appreciation to me, and left the station. She asked me because I was wearing a military uniform and at that time, I felt very proud of myself to help other country people during my military service. This experience made me decide to go abroad and study English and led me to build confidence and communication skills." -- first page
