When you think of the word “Korean” the first thing that
comes to mind could range from the looming threat of North Korea, the bustling
South Korea, or even just that one song that everyone seems to know the dance
to. Something that does not come to mind, is a young woman from Africa, now
living in America, and aspiring to move to Korea. Zamzam Abdi is without a
doubt the most Korean-loving person I know, her face lighting up with a smile
and her very soul seeming to lighten with happiness as she spoke about her
plans.
Smartly
thought, Zamzam plans to just visit the Southern country at first before
picking up and moving to a new life in a foreign land. She wants to spend a lot
of time in the countries capital, Seoul, in hopes of absorbing the culture and
maybe, meeting a few of her favourite band members from popular K-Pop groups “Super Junior” and “2ne1”(pronounced “twenty-one”). Among the fast-paced lifestyle of
going to band signings, concerts, and game shows, Zamzam also plans to get a (literal)
taste of the country through the delicious cuisine.
Zamzam
has a busy and assuredly exciting life ahead of her, and I, personally, wish
her the best of luck.
