Tue ~




By 2030 years, there was a black crow. One day afternoon, it was so hot and dry, so the crow was thirsty seriously. To found the water, the crow flied away around house, but he couldn't found the water because of awfully long famine. Lots of the animals, the plants, and the humans died from the famine.

At that time the crow found a bottle of Coca-Cola.

The crow thought, “I’m so lucky. This is a blessing!!” The crow tried to drink it, but the bottle was too high and narrow, so he couldn’t drink it at all. However, he was a smart craw, so he thought about how to drink the Coca-Cola. Suddenly, an idea came to him. He starts to found some small pebbles. He thought, “If small pebbles are dropped into the bottle, the Coca-Cola would be approached the top of the bottle, and I can drink it easily.’ Then, he dropped pebbles into the bottle, but it was blocked up tightly with the small pebbles, and the Coca-Cola never came out. He upset with that problem, so he broke up the bottle, and then the Coca-Cola gush out of the broken bottle. He has the Coca-Cola in a hurry, and finished it in a twinkling. Suddenly, he felt feel a sharp pain in the stomachs. Coca-Cola was dangerous to animal even the humans. After that, he was died slowly under a scorching sun with terrible suffering.   



Moral: Carbonated drinks are not good to health for human being and animals.

House of the Past, House of Today in Korea

 Few years ago, Korea is underdeveloped country because of the colonial era and the Second World War. But now, Korea joins the ranks of advanced countries and has many changes.

Everything was changed in the Korea, including how to live, what to eat, what to wear. Because of the changing, the Korea traditional houses were changed, too.
The Korea traditional house built up use soils.
 People made houses use red clays and woods without concretes and rebar. This was a Korea traditional method, and many people did it. On the loop, it was straws and it protected the winds, the rains, the sunshine, and the cold. In the kitchens,
 
 people used fire pot to cooks, and it made warm in the houses using the heat. Here is a link; how to make Korea traditional house.


But now, many Korean lives in the apartments, has all of things, supermarkets, gyms, parks.
 The apartments are made concretes and rebar. It has many floors, so many people can live together in a residential area, but they just live a small family. The apartments have automatically heating systems, so if people want to make warm in their houses, just one touch of button can make it. Many changes was happened in Korea living style, but until now some people like old style houses, so they make traditional design of the houses. It is the same way that structure of the apartments, but its inner designs are traditional design. For example, use woods, and use red clay partially as if real Korea traditional houses.
Everything was changed, but many people want to live house of the past style, so I think it is important that reinterpret how to lives from a modern viewpoint, because the Korean sprits never gone even if time past by.
