It took me decades to learn to speak Korean, and I do not have decades left to also learn to speak Chinese.
Koreans used to write in literary Chinese, and a majority of Korean words are Sino-Korean, which means they are formed from Chinese characters, so by learning to read Chinese I am hoping that I will also learn more about the Korean language. If I were a young man, I would be interested in learning to speak Chinese, but I am no longer a young man.
