About the Book

The Hairy Arm PhenomenonStalkers?Weird hole in the groundTwelve years driving and failing the license test three timesThese are just some of the stories included in Marshall's first book, My Korean Story! My Korean Story is full of humor, a lot of culture shock, and a true honor and love for South Korea. With each story, Marshall shares a valuable lesson he learned from going to many unique places in Korea.Marshall was a student at Murray State University when he first began learning about South Korea and its culture. Somehow this small university town attracted a lot of international students; particularly from South Korea. There was a strong Korean community in Murray. A Korean church, "Japanese" restaurant with Korean staples, Korean organization at the Uni, too. He made friends with most of the international population and particularly with Koreans, attended Korean church, tried kimchi (which smelled like fart to him at the time but now he loves it), played soccer, and invited many to his home.But, he never imagined that the path of his life would bring him to Korea! Here's why. Marshall was more fascinated with Japan and the Japanese language. Having studied Japanese, he fully intended to move to Japan after graduating. Marshall's entire life changed once a special Korean girl came into his life. He tried to sit by her at church, the library, the cafeteria, and looked for her all the time! They eventually started dating and she is the biggest reason why Marshall moved here in 2013. Without her help and support, Korea would have been more difficult.Marshall loves Korea dearly. Living here is wonderful and he hopes that you, the reader, can live through his shoes and learn to find joy in this fascinating country. He's had many times that he was angry, sad, joyful, happy, frustrated, and every other mix of emotions here. Through it all, he has learned many lessons and has come to be able to really enjoy life in Korea. Hopefully you will enjoy his stories and laugh, too. They are told in a comical self-deprecating manner. And, they are all true! At the end of each chapter, he shares a lesson learned that helps him to enjoy my life in South Korea! Marshall Shank lives in Korea with his beautiful Korean wife and baby boy. He teaches English, ESL, and Music Theory at an international school in Seoul, South Korea.After he moved to Korea, he realized that although he had some Korean ability, doing everyday tasks were difficult. He was hungry, wanted some new clothes, and was missing seeing his girl.So, he set out to learn what he calls Survival Korean. Over time, our teacher learned how to order and pay for food, buy merchandise, and travel in Korea.
