Full video is mainly in Korean, but in this portion, they are interviewing students during English class.

From my experience there, they seem pretty serious about language learning. There was a university focused on language learning that had brought in a lot of native-speakers as teachers for all kinds of languages, and I met a lot of adults that did after-work programs to learn different languages as well. Russian and Chinese seemed to be the most popular, unsurprisingly.

I am not surprised they start much younger.

pretty cool that they have some lathes and mills, i wish my supposedly well equipped private university had more than 1 fucking lathe and 1 mill for all the university.

of course they are scared/embarrassed, they are kids getting interviewed with a camera in another language in front of all their friends. 😂
