The study texts for '입트영' are comprised of topics that are requested by the listeners. Like everyone else, I wanted to write in with something I wrote. But I never even gave it a try. After all, I thought that I had to write in English to submit a request. But I recently learned from members of my '입트영' study group that listeners request topics in Korean. They told me of the sense of pride they feel when their topic is selected. Right away, I visited the website and went over the process for posting with a fine-tooth comb. I found out that it's no biggie after all. If any listener wants to send in a topic but is hanging back like I did, I urge them to just go for it and give it a shot.
