SpeakIt Language Exchange: Meet friends, practice, and share a language!

Thu, Sep 10, 10:30 PM

From SpeakIt NYC

4.8

SpeakIt is a group where the goal is to **practice and learn languages** naturally: By talking and meeting new people! 🥳 this, of course, includes English learners 😍. [Traducción](https://www-meetup-com.translate.goog/speakit-nyc/events/299532447/?_x_tr_sl=en&_x_tr_tl=es&_x_tr_hl=en&_x_tr_pto=wapp&_x_tr_hist=true) We hope to have all the cultures that New York City represents, so we welcome **any language and all language levels**. Here's how it works: 1. 👨‍🎓You spend part of your time practicing a language you are learning; 2. 🧑🏻‍🏫You spend the other part of your time speaking in your native language, helping others! *(even if you only speak one language, that's fine)* When you arrive at the venue, we will have flag stickers 🇺🇳 representing any country of your choosing. Put your most fluent language on top and any language(s) you are learning or already know below. Then find someone else wearing a flag and say hi in your preferred language 👋🏼. **FAQ's** * 💰**Event is $2 (suggested, cash or Venmo)** to help cover the cost for the flags and the meetup subscription. * 🍻Please support the venue that hosts us by ordering something from the bar. 😎 * ***Will there be speakers of (my language) here?*** That depends! We don't organize who comes to the event, so we can't be 100% sure your language will be there. You may want to invite a practice buddy, or message us in advance and we can try to find you one. Otherwise come say Hi and find out! * **Can I show up late?** Show up any time during the event. * Coming alone? Welcome! Just bring a friendly face and some words. * Or feel free to bring along some friends, too. **When and Where:** * [Heart of Gold Bar](https://goo.gl/maps/csmu6MycKxirFvYv9), Astoria * Get off at Broadway on the N/W train or Steinway M/R. * Look for the flag table out back and say hi!

K-Culture Talk: How Did MBTI Become a Phenomenon in South Korea?

Wed, Sep 9, 9:30 PM

5.0

***“What’s your MBTI?”*** *(**“너 MBTI 뭐야?”)*** If you watch K-dramas or Korean variety shows, you’ve probably noticed MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) coming up more and more. Celebrities reveal their MBTI, variety shows use it to spark conversations, and fans love comparing the personality types of their favorite actors and K-pop stars. Young people also use MBTI at social meetups and on dates—as an easy way to break the ice and get to know each other. But how did MBTI go from a personality assessment used in education and the workplace to such a huge trend in South Korea—and eventually become a popular way for people around the world to talk about themselves and others? 🔔 **Please Note** * Registration is **limited to 8 participants** to keep the discussion intimate and engaging. Join us as we dive into the story behind Korea’s MBTI craze and explore: · **What is MBTI?** A quick look at the 16 personality types and what the four letters mean. · **Why did MBTI become so popular in South Korea?** How did it move from a personality test into everyday conversations, dating, friendships, entertainment, and social media? · **MBTI in K-dramas & variety shows**: How do Korean celebrities and TV programs use MBTI to reveal personality, create chemistry, and spark conversations? · **Celebrity MBTI**: Let’s check out the MBTI types of some of your favorite Korean actors, idols, and entertainers! · **Your MBTI story** — What's your MBTI? Do you think it describes you accurately? Has knowing someone’s MBTI ever changed the way you see them? K-드라마나 한국 예능을 보다 보면 MBTI (Myers-Briggs Type Indicator) 가 자주 등장하는 것을 볼 수 있습니다. 연예인들이 자신의 MBTI를 공개하고, 예능에서는 대화를 시작하는 소재로 활용하며, 팬들은 좋아하는 배우나 K-pop 스타의 MBTI를 비교하기도 합니다. 젊은 세대에게 MBTI는 **모임이나 데이트에서 서로를 알아가는 재미있는 대화 소재**가 되었습니다. 그렇다면 MBTI는 어떻게 교육과 직장에서 활용되던 성격 검사를 넘어 **한국에서 하나의 큰 트렌드가 되었을까요?** 그리고 어떻게 전 세계 사람들이 자신과 다른 사람을 이해하고 이야기하는 방식으로 자리 잡았을까요? **🗣 Language:** The discussion will be conducted primarily in English, with Korean naturally mixed into the conversation. ✨ **The Vibe:** Easygoing and engaging. **👥 Who Should Join?** – Calling all K-pop, K-drama, and Korean Wave (Hallyu/한류) fans! – Korean and English speakers and learners. Calling all Korean native speakers—don’t be shy, come join us! **한국어 네이티브 분들, 다들 환영해요—부끄러워하지 마세요!** – Anyone interested in contemporary Korean culture. Come share your MBTI, your experiences, and your opinions—and let's find out what makes those four little letters so fascinating.
