Yu-Na Kim

Yu Na Kim, the korean figure skater, and also a Vancouver olympic gold medalist, get the lowest score at short program since at the 2010 Torino ISU, and get a silver medal, not gold. Some journal - especially japanese monkeys - says that she can get a gold medal because she was just lucky. Also, some says she isn't a goddess of figure skating anymore. But, Who can throw her a stone?
Olympic gold medal is the best honor for all figure skaters. And Yuna Kim did it. She decided to take part in 2010 Torino ISU, only 1 week ago, and that means she only had a time to practice only a week. Let's suppose that you get a perfect score on KSAT, and get admission to SNU, but you didn't do well on the final exam - It doesn't matter exactly. To say frankly, it's an amazing that she can get a silver medal because she had only a week to practice for it.
What's more, we have to considerate Korean ISU. They don't support for Kim Yu Na. The only thing that they supply for her is an airplane ticket. It's all her burden - uniform, coaching, and even an entry fee! However, Japn or USA supply much things to their skaters. Look at Asada Mao or Ando Miki! They change their uniform very frequently because their government support them. In a short word, it's a miracle that she can be a gold medalist in Korea.
In Korean proverb, there is a saying - Monkey can fall from a tree. Frankly, If I was Yu Na Kim, I would say "Ice in Torino stadium was terrible" or "My boots is crazy.", but she says "I was wrong, after the olympic, I was in an excessive pride, it's all my fault." Perhaps that is the reason why we call her goddess of figure skating, or the Olympic Champion.


Anyone can't be a queen.

My favorite song

My hobby is listening music. I listen various types of music - classical, pop, J-pop, OST.. etc. I especially like Mariah Carey's song - Hero.
When I was a high school student 3rd year, I was living very hard life. I had to prepare for the 수능(Korean SAT). Actually, studying was not hard but competing with many students - it made me tired.
But "Hero", it's lyrics were very impressive to me.

There's a hero, if you look into your soul
You don't have to be afraid of what you are
There's an answer if you look into your soul
and the sorrow that you felt will melt away...

I still like this song. It's hopeful message. Frankly, as I became an university student, sometimes I feel that there's nothing change as my high school days. We have to compete with each other to get a job, to get a good score, and anything else. In this situation, If you listen this song, you can feel confidence that I felt. I promise.

My ideal boyfriend.

My ideal boyfriend is a perfect guy.
He is handsome, tall. And his personality is great.
He is always understanding me and good mannered like the Daddy-long-legs in the novel.
He also has a lovely voice.
Moreover, he is rich

High kick through the roof....

My favorite TV program ended 1 week ago - High kick through the roof. There are many characters who represents our modern life. But, I felt similiar to Jung Eum, mostly.

She is Seo Oun University student, not a Seoul National University. If people ask her about her university, she feel inferiority cuzz her university name is similiar to Seoul national university, but just name. In short, SNU is the one of the top universities in Korea, but Seo Oun is not.

So, she has an inferior educational background. Also, she is 88만원 generation - which means nowdays unemployment. She apply to many company, but she always fail cuzz she doesn't have a better final educational background than other SKY student.

I think this social situation in nowdays is very serious and bad. How people can be known by only his or her final educational background? There are many things that can't be gained with an academic cliques. It's just the tip of an iceberg.

Anyway, in this sitcom, there are many episodes that represent our society. Jung Eum deceive her final educational background and become pivate tutor(of course, it wasn't designed situation) and get involved with Jun Hyuk - the private student - and Ji Hun - Jun Hyuk's uncle who graduates SNU medical school - . And she grows through these episodes.

There are also many other character's episodes. They are mostly heartless people in modern society and their episodes give us tears and laugh. I recommend this sitcom.

Terrible..

Today, I met my friend - Yu Ji who was in the same class when we were high school student. Now, she is Han Yang University student. She majors in Education. She finished her lessons at 5 o'clock so she came to our university. At first, she was very surprised at our hills from the front gate. We went to the NOM - the Italian restaurant near Sung shin women's university. But problem was - I had an enteritis. In the morning, my stomach was bubbling but I didn't care. Howeber over time, my stomach keeps on bubbling so hardly. Finally, I had to go to restroom during English Reading class. But I had to eat dinner because I skipped the lunch so I was very hungry. And secondly, Yu Ji come all the way from Han Yan university to Sung Shin. Besides, after I went to restroom, my stomach mellowed up. So, We went to NOM and have a nice dinner. After that, We went to Baskin Robbins 31 and have a dessert and talked an hour about our high-school-days. At 9:00, We decided to go home and it was terrible. As the subway start, my stomach began bubbling againㅠㅜ...I had to suffer patiently...

My first impression of Sung-shin

My first impression of Sungshin
When I first enter the gate of Sung-shin women's university, I was surprised about the hill which is inclined at 75 degrees. I couldn't understand why the designer who built our university built our university at this slope. According to the D internet portal site, our hills come near to ski slope. Anyway, it was hard for me to hiking our hills.
However, after I heard about Sung-shin's history I felt proud of our university. Although there are many women's university at Korea, Sung-shin is the only university that established of native capital. In my opinion, the reason that the designer built our university at this slope is to grow strong willpower through hiking the hill.
By the way, I think that Sung-shin's professors are ready for our education. Most of them are veteran at each part, and this will be very helpful for our growth. Also, our alumna are taking great role at society, in various ways. For example, the KBS announcer Lee-Ji-Ae let people to know about various parts of society-life, culture, an international situation, economics etc. One of the university's role is to grow an appropriate people for our society, these are desirable.
Also, Sung-shin is the university for only women, not men. It means that we are free from men's way of thinking-for example, male chauvinism. Also, talking and thinking about the women's freedom or women's right will be more easier than other university.
At last, Sung-shin is developing university. It will have 2 campus in Seoul, and also new departments. These will become Sung-shin's new competitive edges. Nowdays, I'm half excited and half afraid of my new life in Sung-shin. But I believe that I can do well.
