Hi I'm HaewooKang who is South Korean. At fisrt, a keyword, which represents me, is friendliness (sociability). When I was young, I was inactive boy. As far, I tried to understand other’s mind and talk to many people as possible, and then I surprisingly am energetic and active guy now.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

As I mentioned in about me, through talking with various people, I became energetic man who leads a pleasant atmosphere. I also talked with international friends in my college, but I actually just heard about their life and culture of their nation. I want to see real culture of other’s nation and feel it. Furthermore, I want to interact to you guys! In my opinion, the trip is not just looking around tourist attraction, it is actually feeling the culture and interact with someone during the trip. Therefore, I apply to couchsurfing to enjoy talking to you

Intereses

As I talk with someone, I could know and understand others and share a lot of things that I didn’t know. I believe that many things, which I already knew, could be changed with sharing and knowledge. During my trip, I want to have that experience with you guys. I don’t care what kind of field of changing. What is changed is could be my value or my knowledge about culture. So I hope that I would enjoy interacting and sharing with someone while I travel the Europe.

Música, películas y libros

I just knew K-Pop when I was adolescent. As I grown, I realize that there are a lot of music, so I like various field of music( Hiphop, R&B, Pop..etc). Nowadays I also enjoy listening classic music because I belong to orchestra club as a violinist. In summary, I love all music : )
In case of movie, I also all field of film. On the other hand, my favorite director is Christopher Nolan, well known for the film ‘The Dark Knight’ directed the film. I prefer the movie which gives us a message. So I like him who makes interesting movies.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Last year, I visited china to help someone through volunteer program. We have Korean volunteer team members and there are also Chinese volunteer team members. As I saw them in first meeting, I worried how I can interact with them and how I can become friends with them. However, that worrying was invaluable. I could be friend of all of Chinese volunteers fast. Then I realize, although native languages are different, everybody can be good buddies!

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I major in Human Engineering (2nd major is industrial design). My college is tech, but it is not normal because our classes are taught in English and every student has two types of major. Though I didn’t learned my major a lot, I actually interested in Human Engineering and enjoy learning it.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

In Korea, most man didn’t the cooking and keeping house until 20th century because of Confucianism. Nowadays, many men do the cook and keep house, but those kinds of guys are little. However, I think man and woman are same as people, so I did keep the house and enjoyed cooking since childhood. Also I like to see pleasured people who ate food which I made. So I hope that you guys eat my foods with a hearty appetite. If there are ingredients of Korean food in your nation, I could cook the Korean food!
