reflection

How has your impression of South Korea changed in the last few days?
My impession of korea have change better in the last few days,. nitially, i did'nt know what the koreans are thinking and how they react. But after i went through all the pre trips assignments , going to differce places in korea and mostly seeing the people in POSCO high school , i found out that they are more able to express their feeling and they auctually did it almost everyday! For example, we went to the Daegu theme park where there is a bomb explosion in their subway and the people express their family members who are the victims by writing their true feeling on the subway outer part itself. I think this is the part where Singaporeans should learn to express their feeling ( in the right way ^^ ) and not always bottle up their feelings.
Overall, i have learnt more of the Korea traditional and also the mordern culture , as i have always thought the Korean dramas is the only thing korea have. Also, Korea is also very concern in the area where their country being green. From the surrounding seen, i can see that the govertment put alot of effort in promoting a green country by putting up recyle bin than rubbish bins , putting up postals to remind the citizens.
In your opinion, what are some similarities and difference between Singapore and South Korea?Similarities
Difference
List and explain three of your most memorable experience- We went to the english village and the street is very beautiful. It shows that the govertment took a lot of effort in promoting english. There is a hostel where those Korean teenage that want to learn english but live far away from the village can live i nthere and attend the lessons there. They also have real life experience in their village wherby the people ther set up fake stations, thus the students can practice communicating by english. Example, they set up a airport style ( check in & check out counter) and thus they need communicate by english.
- We went to the Daegu theme park where they let us take real life experience of the difference natural disaster and teaches us on how to react . Example, the earthquake where they teach us how and when we hide under the table.
- In the POSCO high school, i make friends with the korean students. And all of them are very friendly. Their principal also give the comparison of Singapore and Korea economy where it give me a deep impression.
List and explain three things you have learnt aboutyourself and your life as a student-Always put others before self. Be considerate. As we should be selfish by doing things that only fufil our own desire and neglect the others, This may harm the whole hgroup.
-
- Being able to live in a multi racial , religion country. Able to appreciate other religion and live peacefully and harmony in Singapore. I am very blessed also i am very proud to be a Singaporean.

South Korea have bigger land space than Singapore.
Koreans are more able to express their thought and feeling than Singaporeans.
Both Singapore and South Korea is very concern about the fact that being green is important. And both countries are trying their very best to promote this idea of being green.
Both Singapore and South Korea are facing aging population problem.
Have to learn to appreciate things instead of taking everything for granted. Such as being able to study. Being able to live in a safe and green city.
