Actually I rushly registered to this contest due to my broken hearted (refer previous post lol) so that I may have a chance to go to South Korea this year, again (I dont even understand myself what makes me want to go to korea every single year, can you just stop it laily!?) But actually I dont have expectation to join the contest and I forgot about it until...
I received an RSVP to the 1st preliminary. I was like..wow I forgot about this. Starting from the moment I received the email, I was contemplating whether I should say yes or no. After few hours with the thoughts of 'just do it for the sake of getting a new experience' I replied Yes. But after that, I still wonder around and think whether I should go or not since I dont think I can win the contest anyway.
Now that I think about this, wth is happening with myself with this low confident attitude! XD Even in the morning today after I woke up believe it or not, I was still thinking about not going and looking for a reason why. Thank god I did. Phew. Why is women born to be so complicated and overthinking. This is tiring XD
Since I did a lot of thinking whether I should go or not, obviously I dont do any preparation for the contest HAHA luckily I arrived 30 minutes early and look for some related questions and lucky me again I found the last year questions! Well, it supposed to help me since few same questions came out for this year's quiz too, but I forgot what I read. Thats what last minute revision did to me XD
I can say that the question is verrrrry hard for me. Most of it related to culture thingy and terms in korean. If you join this contest just because of KPop just forget about it. I'm so relieved that none of the questions is related to KPop since I know nothing about it lol
Most of the questions are objective (multiple choices answer) and some subjective questions which you need to write the answer in english also in korean language. There are few questions in english but you need to refer to korean phrases or korean proverbs given (which I have 0 knowledge at XD) Also for the subjective questions there are 3 marks or 4 marks for each depending on the difficulties of the questions.
Compare with last year questions, I think this year is much more difficult. Like I said earlier, I don't expect to win or even go to the 2nd Preliminary at all. But right now the thing that I'm curious is MY ANSWERS! ARE THEY CORRECT OR NOT!? XD I'm also wondering what is my level on korea knowledge. Anyway they might post the questions and answers (like the one that I found for last year contest) but it will take some time maybe.
As a gift, all participants received Ryan's gel pen XD I forgot to mentioned, I'm not sure how I got selected for the 1st preliminary. Maybe they choose everyone who registered for the contest since my session is the 1st one (around 40 people) so I believed there will be more sessions after mine.
So whoever managed to go to 2nd Preliminary soon, best of luck to you guys! ^^
