Dream of Deresa - by Satoko

Deresa, who is from Korea, is a student in PGIC. When she was a university student, her major was Korea Traditional Music. But actually she wants to change her major. She wants to major in Art Business Management.

When she was 14 years old, she watched the opera of "Les Miserables". It was first time seeing an opera. This opera made a big impact on her and she was fascinated in the opera. She had a dream of being a performer that performs traditional korea opera at this point. She went to the special deamatic high school for realizing her dream. In this school, she could go on the stage as a performer. But her parents didn't want her to be a performer, so she was obliged to change her major for Korea Traditional Music.

After she changed her major, she couldn't give up her dream even if her parents opposed her dream. She decided to enroll at graduate school in USA to get a post graduate degree of Art Bussiness management. If she'll enroll at this school, she needs to study English. That why she comes here and studies English.

She'll finish studying English in Toronto, she'll go back Korea once. And then she'll go to America to enroll at graduate school. She'll choose location of NY because her cousin stay in NY and she can save her money by staying with them. To get a post graduate degree will take for 3-4 years.

After she'll get a post graduate degree, she'll go back Korea again. Before she'll be a performer, she'll find another jobs kinds of Derector or Producer because she has to earn lots of money for being it. After she'll get money, her dream will come true! She'll be able to show and introduce about Traditional Korean Opera for people who don't know it in the world.
