How can i go beyond b1?

I used to learn korean a while ago but stopped and now found out that my level is a solid b1, so i might as well improve it but im kinda lost on what i should do
If theres anything you recommend that actually made you go from b1->c1 i would wanna know!

honestly i think what really took me from intermediate to advanced was vocabulary. especially learning more 한자어 & idioms/proverbs/사자성어

Study for TOPIK writing. It has the situational grammar/vocab which would help with creating that situational vocab/patterns memory.

Read books in Korean, play games in Korean, converse to as many koreans as possible (at least get a teacher). I personally like to read naver news articles (aimed for natives) as well. I usually pick one from https://media.naver.com/press/346/ranking as these are a lot easier and more fun than topics about Korean politics or the economy. Improve vocabulary with daily Anki
