i feel oddly selfish learning a language just so i can consume a piece of media i love easier.
I adore k-dramas, but the idea of learning korean just for that one reason... It makes me feel like a poser, almost
Does that make me a dork?

It makes you a dork i don't see how you'd be a poser

I literally learned German after listening to Rammstein for over a decade because I wanted to understand what they were saying.

I studied French to read French literature but I wasn't passionate about French literature, the only novel I had read up to that point was L'Étranger
I studied Old Norse to read Old Norse literature and I had read a fair bit and I am passionate about it
Now I'm studying Japanese to read Japanese literature because I like Mishima and enjoy Akutagawa, Ihara Saikaku, Kenko and Chikamatsu
I can't see any other reason to learn a language besides being an immigrant
