    Korea lies in the eastern part of Asia. This peninsula is divided into two countries: North Korea and South Korea. Although there is a division of landscape, government, and culture, the bulk of people in Korea consider themselves a part of the Korean nation. Regardless of that, the countries do have their differences. The entire peninsula is cut off from Northeast China by rugged mountains and sizable rivers (Rowntree 365). The north suffers from heavy deforestation, however it has more natural resources. The south has made extensive reforestation efforts post WWII and so they have more greenery. In terms of culture, there are more intense differences. In the South, k-pop and Korean drams have gone global. The culture has appealed to people worldwide. Meanwhile, North Korea remains somewhat in isolation. What’s more, North Koreans attempt to flee into Northeast China, quite often. Yet no one flees South Korea. This shows that there are different cultures and levels of comfort in each…

    The reason as to why Korea was her inspiration for her poem is that, ever since end of World War Two, Korea has been divided into two separate countries, the two countries being North and South Korea of course. The poem, Monologue for an Onion, represents Korea in that both the onion and the person are split, yet somehow they are still connected to one another. What this means is that the onion is split because of its layers being peeled away from it, yet still remaining somewhat connected to its layers of flesh that lay upon the counter and the person that now carries its feelings, thoughts, and smells. The person, despite being split at their core or their heart, is connected to it because of the onion revealing what the person did not know of themselves. These two represent Korea in that the North and South countries would continue to always be connected to one another, despite the Soviet Union and the United States of America taking control of the two, respectively. The people of the two, some of the ideologies of the two, and the wars of the two would always keep the two connected no matter who or what attempted to split them apart, even if the who or the what were two powerful countries like the Soviet Union and the United States of America. Kim wanted to show that the onion and the person represented her home and its…

    North Korea has a communist, state-run, one-man dictatorship. However, North korea has gone through many steps to get where they are today. In 668 A.d., Koreans were united by the Silla Dynasty. This dynasty united three kingdoms of Korea which included Silla, Paekhe, and Koruryo. After the unification, Korea obtained a more organized bureaucratic model which was in accord with China. This system divided the Korean peninsula into 9 different provinces. The system also included systems of ministries and bureaus. Later, in 1910, Japan colonized Korea. It is said that during this colonization, the Korean people suffered greatly. During this time period, Korea began to modernize and Pyongyang became the capital (center of attraction) of Korea. 35 years later, in 1945, the Cold War and 38th parallel divided the Korean people into North and South Korea. While the North had a more dictatorship structure, the South strived for a democratic system, which clashed.…

    People move to an other country for many reasons: to escape from their exausting routine, a career change, health purpose, but for me it was as part of an University exchange. I’m a moroccan student who live in South Korea since August 2012, and I was suprised of some aspects of this country. I had some experiences that bring me to ask myself new questions and even let me confused sometimes. In fact, there are three things that impressed me most: their similarities, their deceptively quiet nature (which create some misunderstanding) and respect according to their own codes.…
