Please meet my son, Sangjoon Yeon.

This is my son, Sangjoon Yeon. I took this picture one year ago. He is 6 in Korean age. These days he really didn't listen to me. You know, we call it abnoxious seven age. I can't stand it when he did only as he wanted to do. Shall I just wait for him until he is a good boy?

When was the happiest moment in KNUE?

I usually go to the small hill across from the lecture building after breakfast listening to the radio. I am very excited to go there every morning. I can get some fresh air and stretch my body. I can get some energy to study hard.

Do you have any plan for Christmas?




Happy Christmas~!

I made Christmas tree at home last Sunday with my son. My son was happy and excited decorating the tree with shiny bells, yellow stars, a sock, colorful balls, and Christmas cards.

I'll have a party at home with my family. I'll prepare for a cake, a bottle of dry red wine, and a present for my son who believes in Santa Clause.

Do you think English Kindergarten is necessary in Korea?

I have a problem that I should solve for my son. I decided to move from Jincheon where I had lived to Cheongju. I have to find the kindergarten where my son would go to from the next March. I just wanted my son to go to a public kindergarten near my new house whose tuition is very reasonable, but they say they already booked in October. I know it's too late to find a kindergarten. I asked the other private kindergaten. In the private kindergaten, they have extra classes such as art, physical education, and English. It is also expensive because of extra class. However English kindergarten's tuition is much more expensive. It is 480,000 won per month. I was so shocked. I can't afford to pay for it and I don't want my son to go there. I think children should learn Korean earlier than English, read many books, and play as much as they can.

What do you think about that? Is English kindergarten necessary in Korea?

List at least two things that you think are precious for you, please.

My first treasure is of course my son. I can't imagine the world without him. When he is sleeping, he seems to be an angel.

My second treasure is my job. I like to teach students English.

What's your Essay topic?

I'm struggling to find my topic for essay now. After Reggis class, I think I have to do more work to look for the evidence and examples. Now I am thinking about an argumentation essay about Korean high school(고교평준화). I don't know that words in English. I have to find out some English words for that.
