Seeking
to count the numbers in Korean. Well, it becomes a type of fun to count in
Korean. I discovered the fact when I was in secondary level. I was boarded in a
school and Korean national game: taekwondo was taught there and listening
that counting I felt it pretty much melodious, I don’t know why. But I never
played taekwondo as I was already a gymnastic player.
