Yes, I have been exposed to English for a total of about 600 hours. I have never memorized English words or studied grammar through YouTube, Netflix movies, or TV shows. So, it's been about six months now, and my English skills have completely changed. Just completely. Yes, so, I am now watching American dramas without English subtitles, which I couldn't even imagine before. And these days, I'm reading Harry Potter books, and the speed with English content is almost the same as reading Korean. So, when I see English expressions, I understand the content right away. How did I study? First of all, let me tell you the key points. The term input here refers to listening or reading, encountering English expressions. But when encountering this input, such as images or

Through anime videos or dictionary information, videos that I can understand to some extent should be exposed with English expressions or in such contexts, and the brain should receive both the English expressions and the appropriate situation and image video together to be effective. The second thing is that I must see what I want to see, what I am interested in, what I really want to understand. So, at first, of course, movies or dramas were naturally not understood, so I started with short videos. I replaced the Korean in the YouTube subscription information with English on YouTube, YouTube, YouTube. Honestly, for food videos, travel videos, camera reviews, and such videos, even if you don't understand the English expressions well, you roughly know what the situation is, right?

I think I watched YouTube videos in English on my Mac for about a month or two, and when I got somewhat used to understanding short YouTube videos, I moved on to foreign dramas or movies on Netflix. So, I started watching TV shows or movies that are about 1 hour and 40 minutes long. Then, there were times when I felt like experimenting by turning off the English subtitles. To get used to turning off the English subtitles, I started watching dramas that I had already watched without English subtitles. For example, after watching Marvel movies or games, I would watch all Marvel movies again or from the first episode of The King's Game to the end without English subtitles. This is also an experiment.

I tried to approach learning English without subtitles focusing on movies that I already understood to some extent. Then, I started reading books, and what I feel when I read them is that my English skills have improved while breathing under the umbrella of the content I've been exposed to for about 600 hours. So, now, as I am shooting this video, what I feel is that through those 600 hours of studying English, I spent most of my time either sitting on the subway just watching dramas or lying on my bed, taking a break, watching movies, and studying English very easily. So, the change I feel these days is that for the first time, I didn't have the English skills of a compliant 1st grader. However, I couldn't say a word.

I haven't even heard of English, and when I become a book, I have experienced having one side of my body getting paralyzed. However, at that time, when I realized that I did well on the college entrance exam, I encountered English proficiency for the first time. So, I first organize it with grammar, recall word memorization, and expressions, then translate it into Korean, and now I understand the meaning. How about now? When encountering English expressions, I can now imagine and understand the meaning. Just like reading Korean, encountering English expressions, interpreting them, and understanding the meaning is not the case anymore. As I encounter English expressions, the meaning comes to mind immediately. That state has been reached, and now studying English has become a hobby. Now, I think I should work harder on watching English videos. Besides studying English on the subway, I don't usually do it well, but I believe that when I take a break for about 4 weeks, I don't watch about 10 to 12 hours.

Lying down, having some weird stories, my Felice Cuella. Oh, just lying down and watching something, no English subtitles. That's how I study English. When I work part-time at the headquarters, making headquarter juice, for me, it's studying English. How do you feel about it now? It doesn't feel like studying English. I just watch the videos I want to watch and the subtitles are in English. But it feels like studying English. But I just take a break on weekends and watch TV series, which is also a way of studying English. It's so nice. And now, going to watch a movie, when I go to watch a foreign movie, the Korean subtitles are on, but when I watched Aladdin recently, the English comes in before I understand the Korean subtitles. So, now, when I watch movies with Korean subtitles, I can study English again.

Because when I hear English first, as English improves first, I can understand the meaning. There is no other way. I recently started dreaming in English as well. So, I dream of speaking English too. Because there is continuous English input in my head, I have to somehow let it out. But since I'm not very good at speaking yet, it's better to do that in my dreams. I talk to foreigners, discuss values, travel, etc. So, I think the two most important things are English and you. The way we have been studying English so far is not a way to make an English brain. It's not like just studying knowledge, like memorizing history, such as the reign of King Jinheung in Silla. It's not like memorizing words like explaining what an 'explanation' is.

I just read a book on knowledge and absorbed the knowledge I wanted. It was a different kind of studying experience. What I realized after 600 hours of exposure to input is the real way to learn English. You need to create two English brains. To create these English brains, what do you need to do? English expressions and their corresponding meanings should come in together constantly. Just like that, in Korean, the reason why we are good at it, the reason why we are good at Korean, is not because we memorize each word of Korean, or know the meaning of each word. We need to define Korean by not knowing the meaning of each word. Do you know Korean grammar? Nevertheless, we are fluent in Korean, speaking, listening, reading, and everything. The same goes for English. We keep encountering a lot of input in English, which means

When you encounter images or situations like the government in videos, you need to make sure that English expressions and their meanings are stored properly. If there is a word like fassadick in Korean, which means pathetic, but I wonder where I heard that word before. It's like when a character in a novel is trying hard but lacks skills, I feel so pathetic. So, it's like looking at a person with a weak power and making fun of them, saying, Oh, my potato has a belly fat. Therefore, the word fassadick can be explained as a pathetic expression, but it's more like even though someone is doing a lot and has a lot, the word gives a feeling that doesn't quite fit them. This is another way to understand the meaning of the word or English expression.

Naming situations should be saved together, so I need to see what I like. I need to watch content that I can empathize with, and I need to watch content that I can relate to and understand. The way to watch content that is related to that situation and meaningful is, in order to be created in English, we should not just memorize words like we usually study, interpret grammar, and go through that interpretation character to study English. In fact, studying English is not just studying English, it's continuously encountering those words, expressions, and situations simultaneously. By inputting English expressions and situations simultaneously, you should be able to recall meanings and situations when watching movies or reading books in the future. This method of studying English, which goes through such an interpretive filter, is never outdated, and by encountering numerous English inputs, meanings, situations, emotions, and contexts simultaneously.

Understanding is really important. So, can you speak now? Because it's about 200 hours, so can you speak? In fact, it seems much better. I will show you later because the way of studying levels so far, even looking at English expressions, moves on to the meaning. So, when you encounter English expressions, the meaning comes in and you can understand it. What is speaking? Even if you think of the meaning and look at it, the English expression that comes out is actually the same. When I read a book now, as soon as I see an English expression, the meaning comes to mind. As soon as the meaning comes to mind, the English expression also comes to mind. It's simple every time. What I feel now is that there are results in this English study. Trying English expressions and immediately imagining is the way to speak English.

As soon as you start speaking in English, it's the same thing, right? It's the same principle as accessing the internet, and speaking and writing are the same principle, so many people say that input is 80% and practicing output is 20%. What is it? I have confidence in it because watching TV shows on the weekend is studying English for me, and I learned in an environment where I had to encounter English every day. So, now, reading books and watching TV shows is studying English for me, so I will study English every day. I am confident that I will naturally become fluent as time goes by. Therefore, in the future, I will show you a lot of speaking practice. In the future, my channel's plan is, first of all, to change English education in Korea. Just by lying down and watching TV shows on the weekend, you can study English.

Suddenly, I don't really like studying or memorizing words, but I like it later. Before that, I want to create a channel where I can study English easily and comfortably through things I like and find interesting. That's my goal. So, from now on, I will show you things that don't involve me speaking. I will upload speaking practice videos showing some thoughts on how I have used the internet a lot and how I have created it myself. Also, I want to recruit other people and show the process of my tremendous English study transformation over 600 hours, making others feel it too. I think it's time to do something. Now, I can freely read books, watch movies, and TV shows because.

Now, I can talk a lot about studying English on this channel without having an obsession with it. I have become innovative and made this video. Thank you so much for subscribing, waiting, and trusting me. I hope you can feel that studying English with me is not really difficult. I hope you can study English for the rest of your life and effectively acquire English in the future. Then, I will work hard to run the second channel. See you in the next video.
