Narrative Paragraph

When I was a University student, I liked to go to the movies with my friends. One day, I went to the movie theater in Nampo-dong. I don’t remember the movie title, but I thought the actors spoke in English. I sat at the back of the theater with my friends, next to a foreigner. I noticed that the foreigner and I were laughing at different scenes during the movie. We Koreans smiled at some parts, but the man did not smile. When he laughed a lot, we never laughed. At that time, I was shocked by the different responses, because we watched the same movie! I understood I didn’t listen to the English and just read the Korean subtitles. I wanted to listen to the original movie in English myself without subtitles, so I determined to study English someday.
From last year, I have studied English happily, so someday I hope I would watch many movies without Korean or English subtitles.
