Actor Koo Sung-hwan has begun studying English using the association method popularized by Ki-an 84.

On the 18th, the MBC variety program 'I Live Alone' revealed Koo Sung-hwan's daily life.

That day, Koo Sung-hwan headed somewhere with a look that was both nervous and familiar. He introduced it as "an English conversation study cafe I've been attending recently. It's an academy, but we gather under the concept of a study group to learn English."

Koo Sung-hwan said, "My hearing is just a little okay, but my listening is completely not working." In response, Jeon Hyun-moo remarked, "Hearing and listening are the same thing. Saying you can hear a little but can't listen means nothing," which drew laughter from the cast.

Koo Sung-hwan then clarified, "I misspoke; I meant speaking instead of listening."

Koo Sung-hwan explained his reason for studying English: "I've tried phone English too, but I wanted to do it in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. I have an older sister's family in the United States. (My nieces and nephews) are somewhat unskilled in Korean. I can't speak English at all. To have romantic conversations while looking into each other's eyes, I'm taking this challenge. Today is my fourth lesson."

Ki-an 84 commented on Koo Sung-hwan's English, saying, "Sung-hwan hyung really can't do English," to which Koo Sung-hwan retorted, "When I was in my prime, I was good at it."

Although Koo Sung-hwan's English skills are still somewhat unpolished, he confidently attended the lesson. The teacher praised him, saying, "You used the words well," about Koo Sung-hwan.

Koo Sung-hwan stated, "I learned association-based English from Ki-an 84," and applied Ki-an 84's method of memorizing Japanese using story-driven associations. The cast members praised him, saying, "Hyung is smart," and Koo Sung-hwan expressed his gratitude by saying, "Ki-an, thanks to you, I've improved a lot."
