|
|
Hello everyone.
I've been working in China for almost a year and a half now, but I'm considering moving to Korea for a year or two. Reason being is I want to save up some money so I can go for a master's in applied linguistics back in the US in 2008.
Anyways, over the past 15 months I've managed to achieve an intermediate level of Chinese (Mandarin) and I'm worried if I leave soon I will forget most of what I learned from lack of use.
I'm wondering if there are lots of Chinese expats and/or mandarin speakers that live in South Korea? I mean, do most mid-sized and larger cities have a sizable Chinese community? I assume they would, because of China's proximity, but I want to make sure.
If anyone has any success stories of continuing their study of Chinese in Korea, please let me know about it.
Thanks. |

There are plenty of Chinese people in Seoul and Busan.
Its easy to find them too. And I am sure if you offer them a bit of cash they would be delighted to maintain your mandarin. |
