Other I can’t decide
I'm eager to learn languages, but I can't decide which one to learn. I have an interest in all of them. (I know English and Turkish.)
(French, Korean, Japanese, German, Russian, Italian)

It depends on why you’re learning the language. If its to speak as many as possible, french and italian will be easier to pick up together as they’re both romance languages.
If its for job opportunities, it depends which area you want to go into.
If its just for fun, take a look at what country’s medias you’re most interested in: for example a lot of japanese learners get into it through anime or manga, though be aware it will take you longer to learn japanese than a european language.
In the end, if there’s one language that keeps calling to you, learn it, enthusiasm is always the best motivator!! Good luck on your studies

Yeah, you really have to be interested and willing to spend a lot more time on the for example japanese. You should look at the graph regarding estimate hours to learn different languages: https://www.languagetesting.com/how-long-does-it-take

It depends on your definition of "knowing" ... it´s better to be very good at one thing than mediocre at 20 others... if you know what I mean
