October Post I

I decided to give a change in my signature project. I was planning to focus on several Korean historical events that have impacted me; however, I thought it would be better for me to focus on one event. Thus, I decided to focus on "The Gwangju Uprising", alternately called "Gwangju Democratization Movement". My goal of reminding people about important past event hasn't change. It will just be focusing on one significant historical event in Korea. At the end of the year, I will be done with the timeline of the one significant historical event, which is The Gwangju Uprising, with my personal reflection.

May Post I

On May 25th, I presented my project to my classmates and visitors.  As I reflect on the past process of the signature project, I learned many things that I did not realized in the past. Once again, I realized how important it is to keep the work on time. The given time is not really an enough time to do a project on my interests; I needed more time than the time I had. If I started my project early, I wouldn't have to rush myself to finish it and would have ended up with better project and presentation. From the signature experience, I found and now am sure of what I want to do in the closest future. I enjoyed the project by using art to communicate with people with art. It made me to self-improve by reflecting on myself by writing the blog posts and improve in many ways by talking to teachers and mentors. It is one of unforgettable memory that Emma has gave me. Thank everyone who has been part of my project.

April Post II

After listing all the facts about Gwangju Uprising, I was shocked again. I am very thankful that this didn't happen in my life time. I am also very thankful that this how this event has changed the society. If this did not happen, the future in the past, the present where I am existing would have no freedom. It would have been full of limitation that is caused from the communism. Like what I said in the post that I posted in the past, I am shocked that the head of the massacre was only imprisoned for only two years and was released. Still, there are many political scandals happening and I really want to prevent people from repeating the past. I think it is very significant to block the unrightfulness and unjustifying decision that the government is making.
