Hi, guys! I'm Hoorimi from BDB Korean. It's already the end of January.
How fast time flies!! I can't believe it, haha. How have you spent your first month of the new year? I spent time refreshing and making plans for the future.
I'm looking forward to meeting you guys at our first gathering of this year!
Starting this year, I'll post a blog about what we will talk about together in our gatherings ahead.
So, you can study it yourself first and practice speaking in Korean when we meet.
I think it will obviously be a great time!
Topic: Routine for a health life
Let's talk about your health routine!
I usually drink water right after waking up and avoid using my phone before bedtime. I find time to read and cook when I can, which helps relieve stress. I enjoy walking in the park.
Do you have any good habits in the morning or before bedtime? Let's share life tips and motivate each other for a healthy lifestyle!
If you made New Year resolutions and lost motivation, it's a good chance to restart! Haha.
Now, let me share a vocabulary list and some grammar for our gathering!
