If you read my first post, I also mentioned "they are literally the smartest people you will ever meet." For Koreans to participate with the rest of the modern world, we needed to learn English. As a result, English was strongly emphasized in schools to the point where it was more important than Korean itself. These foreign language high schools excelled at creating Korean students that could speak English. The downside of these Foreign Language high school is that it also cultivated an identity around their English ability. The point should have been to learn English so we could efficiently communicate our intelligence but it turned into some twisted form of competition for the best English. The truth is half the world already speaks English. Nobody cares how well you can speak English. As long as you can communicate your ideas, nobody in the US cares about your accent. Nobody is looking down on you. You struggled and it seems like you won. 

It appears that somehow you are as bitter as me. I was the smartest kid when I went to school in the US and it was so easy. It was so hard in Korea. I just wanted to take classes in English again. When I failed to get into the Global high school, I heard about a foreign language high school that provided classes in English. It was so low quality that I never learned a thing. I decided to focus on applying to US schools, so I went to SAT hagwon, ACT hagwon, short essay hagwon (for the SAT Essay writing portion), and a different essay hagwon that specialized in Common app. After 3 years and multiple attempts, I finally got a 2300 SAT and 33 ACT scores and I got accepted at every school I wanted. Then the realities of the financials kicked in and I got really depressed. My mom heard about Underwood and how they provided classes in English. In my first class, the professor was a Korean professor trying to speak English. I remember bawling in the middle of the lecture room.

I wish you well. My dream is to become a pilot and I am also going to flight school on top of grad school. If I make it to the airlines, I'll give you a free flight to Korea from wherever you end up when you miss home.
Smile Thank You. I was too picky. I am not “Bbi Jim”
Anyway I spent 4 and a half year in Central California,
You may understand if you grew up in Seoul.

I thought Los Angeles and Hollywood could be magical
when I was in Highschool. I am a native YDP Seoul citizen,
Seoul was even bigger modern city and I learned it after I arrived LAX.

Also I learned I was smart enough, rich enough in Seoul,
But in the states, I was average Asian and nothing special.
I became special when I went Danang Vietnam for my job,
Christian Education firm employee, they so eager to come and study in below average Christian Universities in Korea,
And they were being so nice to me and my boss,
We awarded scholarship of $4,000 for 5 top students in Vietnam, they were faithful Christian and they told me
saving $4,000 for average vietnamese, took least 5 years.

Then I decided if I work for Christian foundations in Korea,
I became “so needed, Very important person” for those students, that is why I need Masters in Theology or missiology or Religious studies.

I want to be in place where I respected, needed, worth.
That is why I work for this firm and help those students in Vietnam, Philippines, India, Kazahkstan.
