I've visited Korea about as many times as I've dabbled with the language. My first trip was in 2014, when I went for a work trip with no idea about the country or the language.

Since then, through media and culture, Korean has become a more important global language in the 2020s. It's very in-style.

So in March 2026, I dove back in again to see what I can learn.

I'll put any major milestones here.
