My Teacher at Singapore Korean School, 명윤희 선생님.It's been about 2 months of twice weekly lessons at SKS. So far, it has been a rewarding experience. I love the way the lessons are conducted, which kept the students constantly on our toes... because we're constantly called upon to either read passages or memorize sentences/expressions, and of course the 1-min unprepared speeches and the vocabulary tests at the beginning of each lesson.
I am not good at blogging about lessons and things learnt in each one, unlike Equinox. I'll just say that I am enjoying myself in class, even though some of the grammatical stuff can be quite hard to understand or remember.
Anyway, I just learnt that the Soju bottle contains exactly 7 glasses of soju. Why 7? Because it's a "marketing strategy" revealed my teacher. You see, when drinking with friends, you need to pour each other a glass of soju, right? So, if you keep pouring a glass for each other, the last person would be left with no more soju to pour. So, he'd need to order ONE more...and so on and so forth. Because 7 cannot be divided into 2,3,4,5 or 6....So, who wins in the end? Yup. Marketing strategy. Err...that's Korean Trivia for you.
