's Letter

Dear Host Family, Hello, I am Gaon from Korea. First, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to my host family for warmly welcoming me into your home. Let me introduce myself briefly. My MBTI type is ENFP. I am an outgoing person, but I also enjoy listening to music or engaging in my own hobbies at home from time to time. I am very active and enjoy all kinds of sports, but my favorite is soccer, and my favorite team is Manchester United. One of the reasons I decided to join the American exchange student program is because I heard that Americans are very passionate about sports. Additionally, I recently learned that interest and investment in soccer have been growing in the U.S., which I found very exciting. I look forward to doing various activities with my host family and believe that small cultural exchanges will provide valuable experiences in my teenage years. Also, since I am good at cooking Korean food, I would love to introduce my host family to Korean cuisine. Both of my parents work, so on weekends, my family spends time together doing a big cleaning session as a family bonding activity. I am a student who does my best with household chores as well. I hope to spend time with my American family, doing my best to become a part of the family and help in any way I can. With pride as a "small ambassador of Korea," I look forward to becoming a part of your family. Best Regards, Gaon
