Does being educated abroad during high school put you at an advantage or disadvantage over students who have studied only in Korea? Why?
I guess being eduacated abroad during high school put me at both sides, advatage or disadvatage over students who have studied only in Korea.
Being educated abroad during high school has some benefits.
For instance, in Global world, English has already been used in everywhere.
Being educated in native country wolud be much helpful for learning English.
In otherwise, being eduscated abroad during high school could be bring a disturbing result.
For example, identity problems will happen.
High school students are growing, not grown ups. So when they suddenly meet with new culture which is differnet from what they used to, they can be confused about identity problem. They are not perfectly established identity that they are koreans.
In short, in this case, there exist two sides. Being abroad during high school could be advantange or disabvantage overthe students who have studeid only in Korea.

Post-Reading Discussion Question
Do you think she should have won the Nobel Peace Prize? Why?
Yes, I do.
Sacrifice can't be only impact for deciding who would win the Nobel Peace Prize. There are lots of people who sacrifice themselves for their own benefits. It means anyone can do those kinds of acts. So someone who win the Novel Peace need more than that. Aung San Suu Kyi was different from others. She grew up with no difficulty, actually even well. However, she didn't lead peaceful life. She fought for democracy. It was not for herself, it was for all the people in her country.
Aung San Suu Kyi said in her speech that "fear, and not power, is the cause of corruption." Do you agree or disagree with this statement?
I totally agree with her opinion. Power itself doesn't always give rise to corruptions. When the person who gets the power fears losing the power, corruptions will start. He will try to hold his power anyhow. In this course, corruptions also will be involved.

Who has had a positive influence on you?
Who has had a positive influence on you?
⇒ my best friend 'Song'
Why?
⇒ I have had a girl friend since I was seven years. I met her my apartment. She lived at 9th story and I lived at 2th story. She was a congenial friend. We two had many things in common. But we were different in personality. She was very active and positive but I was passive and negative. For example, as we were middle school student, we went to academy for study. When we have a question, I hesitated asking to teacher but 'Song' asked my teacher without any hesitation. I envied 'Song' for her activity. At that time, I decided to resemble my friend. I thought that I can follow 'Song', and I can be same as 'Song'. As there is an old proverb that 'He who touches pitch shall be defiled therewith', I resembled 'Song'. Now I'm very active and positive even if I have passive and negative personality a a little. So because of my friend, I can easily adapt myself to New world and make many new friends. I appreciate my best friend 'Song'
