I agree that Winter Sonata is the pioneer of Hanryu. Like the article describes‚ Winter Sonata contain different elements which catch the eyeballs of middle aged women. The ‘pure love’ plots‚ the romantic and slow-paced scenes and the choice of actors blended and created a chemistry action which provide rooms for the audience to fantasize and envision themselves in the scenes of the drama. Winter Sonata not only fulfills the sensational needs of the middle aged women‚ but also fulfills their psychological

I never did like driving in the winter. I was almost always running late‚ time just tended to escape me. In the winter‚ everything required a sluggish attentiveness that I didn’t have the tolerance for. Driving had always been a tranquil and lulling thing for me‚ up until I hit solid black ice. I never expected to spin out of control like that and I was so sure that the only way this could end was with my car upside down in the middle of the road. My knuckles were white from gripping the bitter

Before the day of the seminar I was a bit apprehensive and was not sure whether the class‚ or I for that matter‚ would participate much or learn much. After the class I felt great about the experience and learned a lot‚ it was good to have a conversation with my fellow classmates about the story in a relaxed atmosphere. I was confused on several aspects of the story and wanted to discuss several

The poems “Daystar” by Rita Dove and “Those Winter Sundays” by Robert Hayden share many similar themes. The main theme that these two poems share is being unappreciated. Both narrators used specific language and imagery to support this theme. In the poem “Those Winter Sundays” the father is described to wake up every morning even on Sundays also‚ to warm the house up for his child. He worked all week doing labor and “No one ever thanked him” is a hint that people around him were very unappreciative
