When I was an undergraduate student, I participated in several organisations and established an Arabic learning class at campus as my voluntary movement. Those organisations are English community, public speaking community, and youth community. Unfortunately, global pandemic stopped them all at once. Then, everyone moved to digital media including my communities and my Arabic learning class. I tried to make fun content for learning Arabic using KPop and KDrama. I found it fun, so I continued it excitedly. I feel that it’s okay to endure with taking videos, writing scripts and editing. I really enjoyed my activities. Luckily, I was awarded as the best graduate in my study course even with dozens activities in making content.
