"Trying new things" - Language study plan before and after Gks

I have always enjoyed trying new things, and learning a new language was one of them. At first, I wasn't sure which language to focus on. But when I discovered the Korean language, something just clicked. I found myself drawn to its structure, the way it's written, the way it sounds-and I was surprised by how naturally I could grasp the basics. Compared to other languages I explored, Korean felt more open and accessible to me. That connection made me decide to take it seriously.

I began studying Korean not just out of curiosity, but because I saw it as a doorway to a new culture and an opportunity I genuinely connected with. Since English is the primary language spoken in my country, my exposure to Korean in daily life has been limited. However, I am committed to improving significantly during the one-year language program offered by my chosen university attending the required classes and dedicating 2-3 hour daily to practice listening, reading and trying to form my own sentences.

In addition, I will continue using online resources like Talk To Me In Korean and YouTube to strengthen my skills. To deepen my understanding, I intend to join a language study group, which I believe is one of the most effective methods for practicing and learning the language.

And I will ensure to participate in cultural activities available during my study in Korea to help me immerse myself in the language and culture. I understand that learning a new language can be challenging, but I am excited to take it on with dedication and enthusiasm. I believe that with consistent effort, I can achieve my goal of thriving in Korea.

This is not an effective language study plan. It does not show that you have been making long term plans to study in Korea by preparing early on in your studies. You should be referencing tutorial center attendance, online chat groups, and preparations to take the TOPIK prior to your arrival in Korea. Serious prepation for language proficiency should be seen as this will indicate the possible level of your Hangul proficiency upon arrival.

Your post arrival studies should be more defined than what you have at the moment. How do you plan to excel in the mandatory language classes? What is your target TOPIK score? What sort of language building activities do you hope to participate in?

The essay needs more specifics. This is more of a generic overview so it does not really provide useful information to the reviewer. Using this statement as is will weaken your chances for the scholarship consideration.
