Ethnic Korean kids at Korean school who speak Russian instead of Korean [Part 1] | K-DOC

[@sadia2395]

Always impressed by ppl who can speak multiple languages and such diverse ones at that ! Must be hard for kids now but hopefully it will come in handy for them later on

[@monramin]

I had to speak 3 languages when I was a child, trust me it's not only hard as a child, as an adult now, who speaks 5 languages I always get confused lol

[@hayley4032]

I learnt 5 as a child and those have always been my best languages, I've recently expanded to nine There is a period where you are a child where you learn and remember things exceptionally fast, and what you learn in that period might as well determine what you're best at. It's actually not too hard if you build a habit of practising your languages since you have to immerse yourself in the language(For example, I had Indonesian helpers all my life, a common thing in Hong Kong. That's where I picked up Indonesian)

[@Cxs1a3]

As some1 who lives where people can easily speak 3 or more languages, I can tell you it has nothing to do with intelligence or skill, just birth circumstances

a lot of kids may be made to feel ashamed of their different ethnic backgrounds, but actually they'll soon learn its a blessing. being mixed and growing up with another culture lets you learn a lot and will definitely open a lot of doors for you in the future! i hope these kids carry on to be bright souls! :)

[@GenieGin13]

I wouldn't be surprised. The parents have always raised their kids well and I'm sure they considered it'd be beneficial for their kids to be around other mixed children. It makes sense to be located near a community like this, where there are foreign-born children or 4th-gen mixed or other circumstance. Naeun is good at switching between languages but her brothers struggled a little more. They were definitely more comfortable with English and German at one point before Korean. But it's all good for them. They'll use Korean in school and in public while at home they practice English, German, and Spanish
