When Korea Makes me falling in love


When I was boring , i got some inspiration,hmmm.."When Korea Makes me falling in love"

My love to Korea started when, one day for the first time, I accidentally watched a Korean drama on television. I was so interested, not only because the story is touching, but also because the film presented very beautiful and calming scenery. When the drama presented the white snow fell softly as cotton, I could even feel the cool and refreshing feeling, when the golden leaves fell down touching the ground, I could feel the warmth that touches the skin even deep into my heart. I thought I saw a beautiful pieces of heaven every time I see the Korean landscape. And day by day I become even more curious to find where the place that I feel as beautiful as heaven.

Since i was in teh Junior High school, I've been looking for and read information about Korea. Even I ever sent letters to the Korean Embassy in Indonesia several times, hoping I could get closer to Korea. I also try to get various books, drama, film, and music about from library, internet and magazines. I really fell in love with the country as calm as breaking dawn time, though i’ve never been witnessed directly Korea. I think it was appropriate the epithet for Korea, Choson as calm as morning.

Reading about the history of the country of which its independence in 1945, makes me even more wanting to know more about Korea. South Korea as a small country which was resulted from the division of the Korean Peninsula due to the cold war ideological differences, succeeded in reducing poverty in a short time, and revived from adversity and capable of surprising the international community with the development of national technological and economic success, is admirable. The country that since the era of empire Choson has been concerned with education with the concept that positioned the teacher is in the sam position as the King and parents. In addition, the speech of President Park Chung Hee is very admirable that education is the most important element in poor natural resource country like Korea and those who are educated will play an important role for developing countries and people. I strongly agree with his thought thus not only lofing Korea, I also admire President Park Chung Hee.

Korean culture attracts me. Confucianism is still attached to the ethics and morals of Koreans. How Korean people show respect for them through the use of language, through attitude and behavior. The existence of different procedures in each place, a senseof love and respect to family, loyal friends, respect for teachers, hardworking, be loyal to the job and the other characters. Even, the expression of respect in the Korean language is still used. Respectful expression by raising the other person and lowering ourself are the expression of Confucianism value. In addition, the habit of drinking sul and sleeping late at night do not lose the spirit of hard work, though the time to sleep is very little but Korean people still have full of enthusiasm through the day which is full of competition. Then without I realize it, Korea gives me spirit, the belief to not to give up.

Talking about Korean culture there is a typical Korean food that also has introduced Korea to the international world. Kimchi which is a unique Korean food and has healthy advantage which is made from the fermentation of healthy fresh vegetables is foods that is low in calories and cholesterol but contains very high fiber content. It is very good for health. Our knowledge about Korea is not complete before we know the Korean kimchi.
Korea gives a lot of inspiration in my life, and Korea is also one of my dreams. The country that I ever thought
as paradise for its beauty and the country as calm as the morning. I always miss its composure, which makes falling in love.
