About me

🌘 Hello Earthlings. My name is Luna. I am self studying Korean language. My first attempt to learn Korean was sometime in 2011, I think. 9 years have passed and I have made very little progress. My excuse? My brain got in the way. Literally.

I got a severe neurological illness. Or two. Or ten.

However, I never once lost the enthusiasm for learning Korean. I had to accept my limitations, but also come up with ways to overcome them where possible. This blog is my newest attempt to keep up with Korean in the face of adversity.

I am often encouraged by “The Tortoise and the Hare” fable, although I do sometimes wonder… what if the hare doesn’t stop running?


🇰🇷 My story starts here: Learning Korean on my own -The Beginning. If you want to follow my Korean language journey just click NEXT POST after each one.

If you’re only interested in my Korean learning milestones this is for you, my progress updates and mock TOPIK results:

  1. I can’t say I feel your pain, because my illness is different. But still very limiting and chronic. I am interested in your story, as probably most are. The Korean thing is great but you should tell us more about you?

  2. Hello Luna. Fellow alien here. I read through a few of your posts and feel your thirst for the language. I’m glad you are keeping your spirits up about learning the language. Hope you get well soon too. “ Fighting!!!😁”
