I've been telling myself for years its all sitting there in my subconscious waiting to be teased out by an extended stint in Turkey, but yet to get off my arse and actually do something about it (e.g., military service, or even just a long holiday with my gf). Cool that you're presumably getting the chance to work on your languages in Korea, particularly if you can do it while training BJJ. :D I get a similar feeling with Turkish: when you grow up in a family where people are speaking what is supposed to be ‘your’ language, feels kinda silly when you can only manage baby-talk.
