8. Korean education

 We used books name is easy Korea(grammar,speaking) we study Korean frome 9:00 to 15:00. 1,2class is grammar and 3,4 class is speaking. There is a level from 1 to 6. We have to take a test. If get good score we can go high revel class. So we have to study hard.     Especially, Chainese friends study so hard because they want to go university or graduate school. But Japanese people were always the best. Because Korean is similar Japanese and  grammar. I also got a prize four time.

6.Korean life

 This is called Samgyeobsal(삼겹살). It is pork. It is one of the most famous food in Korea. If you eat Yakiniku in Japan, you have to pay expensive money.(about 2,900yen) But Korean Samgyeobsal is so cheeper than Japan!!(about 990yen)

And taste so good^^

 This is called Bingsu(빙수)It is very famous dessert in Korea. The person who has come to the tlavel eats certainly. There are also many kinds. For example, strawberry, green tea, mango, chocolate, cheese and so on! This Bingsu ate whis my cousin when my cousin came to trip.  

 There are many pretty caffe in Korea. When my cousin came to Korea, we went to tour of caffe. If you come to Korea I would like to navigshion about pretty caffe!!


<Changgyeong-창경궁->

 Hove you seen a Korean old building? I had been to many times when the sun rises. But I had not been there in the evening. So we went to Changgyeong in night. It is lit up in night so you can see the view diffrerent from light time. I think night is so beautiful than light time. we listened to korean traditional musical instrument.

4. New Year's ~설날~

 여러분 안녕! 오늘 설날 대해서 말아고 싶어요. ^^

 Do you know "Lunar calendar" and "Solar calendar". In Japan, new year's a solar calendar. But Korea is lunar calendar. So This year is from 1/27 to 1/30. We don't have to go to school and all store is close.

 My korean friend said usually they get korean dressed(한복). And they play 윶놀이(yunnori), 고스톱(go-stop). Those are a one of the famouse game in korea. And they eat traditinal korean new year's food. Name is 떡국(tokkuku). They said 떡국 is not good. But they have to eat becaouse if they don't eat it they can't live healthily.

 I think Japan's new year, Korean's new year is similar. 1/27~1/30, maybe I'm nothing to do so leisure. I want to go to Japan becouse I coudn't meet my friend by the ful. But I heard there was a test.ㅠㅠㅠ

 

 오늘 여기까지!! 다음 주에 만나자^^

 Is it true number that “about 100 million people” participated in demonstration? When I saw the news, they said 1.2 million people. – Yuta

→I think 100 million people is total people. Maybe 1.2 million people is the person who participates on the one day. They still contiune the demonstration.

 

Were there any foreign students who participated in demonstration? –Shota

→I think foreign students did not particiate in demonstration. It is becouse this is a Korean problem and it is more dangerous than we watch on TV. My friend said that some people died in demonstration.

 

I am going to study abroad in South Korea and I’m learning Korean right now. 

I want to try to only use Korean when I am in South Korea. Why do Korean students talk each other in English? -Sachiko

→A Canadian held the party. So Korean people speak in English. But I speak Korean.Korean is easier than English. My English skill is poor but I am studying Korean. So I could not speak English more than before.ㅠㅠㅠ
