             Not long ago, a video clip that was released on the Internet became a hot topic among many people. It showed an elementary school teacher, that was punishing a young low grade student. What a made people upset about it? When people saw the teacher slap the student on the cheek and even throw books at him, they got really mad. Some parents said, “ I can not believe it. How can I leave my children at school?” After that incident, the teacher was dismissed.

 Although corporal punishment has been used as an educational means, the necessity of corporal punishment has been discussed over the last decade. According to a survey conducted, more than seventy percent of Korean students get physically punished by their teachers. My most of teachers punished cane or they often ordered a hard pose long time. A lot of people insist that corporal punishment be banned. In contrast, supporters of corporal punishment stress the importance of the punishment, emphasizing its educational effect. Currently, opinion surrounding this issue are divided, but a majority of people agree that violence cannot be justified under any circumstances. And I think that punishing young students ruthlessly is never occurred any schools. But lately, law was changed that any punishment of teacher is banned. If teacher do physical punishment students, teacher will be taken disciplined. These laws apply not only elementary schools but also middle schools and high schools. So now, people said that right of teachers will be collapsed. I can’t easily judge that what is right or wrong.     

Highschool friends.

We are graduated same highschool so we are very close
 Later, I want to meet these freinds and enjoy likes today.

JjimJil

             I went to Surimountain - land that is JJimjilbang with my mother. We often visit a public bath for recover fatigue. I do not like bath when I was young but I like bath and hot room now. Because convenience of Surimountain – land is very good and there’s space so wide. If I go to on weekdays, I enjoy all conveniences as my mind. But if I go to weekend or holiday, I suffer from crowded people. I never like it so I should go Monday to Friday. In addition, it offers yoga lesson in free on weekday at 2:00 ~ 3:00. I think that it is very useful and good idea for guest.

 Surimountain – land’s bathhouse has open – air bath that located semi – upstairs but it is not exposed to outside. Because it has all screened windows. The open – air bath is generally not exists other public bath. This is one of the reasons why I love. Whenever I ease into a hat bath, I can feel that body is hot but head is so cool. This feeling is different to other bath.

 Cafeteria is also nice. The price is reasonable and taste is not so bad. I like Bibimbab and my mother likes seaweed soup. We enjoyed the menu and go to the jjimjil rooms. These rooms are various. Jjimjilrooms’s average temperature is 60~70℃. At first, I did not understand why people go to the hot rooms intentionally. When summer’s temperature is 30℃, people cry out “I can not endure this heat. It likes oven weather!”. But I can understand little why people find Jjimjilrooms. After I sweated, I can relieve stress.

 This Jjimjilroom convenience is very good so I will come to Surimountain – land over and over.

             Yoga has static motion and hard motion so that we can easily grow our energy of mind and body.

First, prepare yoga-mat, mirror to reflect your position and speaker. Then you have to sit your legs crossed down on mat. Now start meditating that means breathing smoothly and slowly and closing your eyes listening a calm music about 5 minutes. After meditation, warm up your body by stercthing your all stiff muscles. Next, stand up from your seat to start real yoga. At this time, it is better to turn on the active rhythm than meditation. Then, steadily play high-level motions that help grow muscular strngth and flexibility. If you over do your motion, you may feel so you must breathe regulary.

 Although you hate all exercises, you will love yoga’s diverse attrations.

Poor baby

While we do not recognize, there is many kinds of Child-neglect occurs everywhere. Child-neglect is divided into about 3 types.

 First, there is Physical-neglect that the parents do not offer meals or clothes like daily goods to their children. Childeren can not take care of themselves so they are easily exposed to malnourishment or danger. Second, there is Educational-neglect that means children do not receive necessity education. These children don’t go to school or they can’t speak even though they are seven years old. Third, ther is Emotional negligence. In this case, most parents do not know that they are commting negligence. The bond of childeren and parent is absent so children have a lack of affection. It causese harmful effects like emotional disturbance. Childeren-neglect can left scars on mind and soul of children.

Hobby farms

             Hobby-farm of my family dosen’t give stress about city life but offer pleasure of harvest and energy.

We have went hobby-farm to raise some vegetables every weekend. This field consist of so many other’s partial and small farms so there are divided by low fence to distinct other’s farm. Our farm just about 100㎡ so that we cultivate some vegetables like lettuce,onion, chives and etc. These crop good for body because we don’t spray agricultural pesticide. Some crop be eaten by worm but I think that reason of worm-eaten vegetables is good taste of our produce.

 This activity that different to city’s daily life encourage fresh energy to me. When I harvest crop, I don’t care about my task like study, assignment and I forget the smoky air of city. This idyllic and rewarding expereince will be energizer for everyone.

Journal 7 창덕궁

             Few days ago, I went to Chandukgoong(창덕궁) with my friend. We have empty hours about 6 hours until next lecture that day. So we decided to go to a kind of picnic. I have had no experience going to Chandukgoong so my mind grew restless.

 There was crowded because of so many sightseers of foreigners; Americans, Chinese, Japanese. This place just likes a foreign country. We maybe look like stranger of other country I thought. Anyway, we paid an entrance fee 3,000 won, we entered very big front gate of palace. (It seems like so expensive fee other than national sightseeing places.)

 The inner place was so wide and gorgeous. I felt that I visited other world. It was a kind of past world. The broad brick road, large tiles on a roof and showy patterns boasted their magnificence appearances. If I wear tradition clothes, I feel past person of ancient times. . Palace was big so it seems like maze but It have antique charm. King, queen and people of palace living place was very nice. Common palace people’s room was little but cozy. There place was really good arrangement. This arrangement gave me a hope that live Korean style house (Hanok). When I get a house, I want to live Hanok.

  After we finished looking around, we were so tired. But this opportunity of picturesque sightseeing made a new enjoying and learning. Later, I want to visit all palaces in Korean. It will be a good experience to me.
