Hi, nice to meet you again :D
Today, I'm here to explain our final team project!
Our topic is a 'health'.
We just wondered how students in Hanyang University care about their health.
So, we planned to survey some students with the questionnaire related to health
then interview some random students in campus about health.
Questions will divided into two groups, 'food' and 'exercise'.
The reason we divided like that was because those two categories well indicate the health status.
Questions will be simple, such as 'how many times do you exercise in one week?'.
Interview will not take a long time. We are planning to interview many students with short clips
so that we can collect various answers from various students.
After all researches from survey and interview, we will make a statistics about it
so that everyone can easily check the results from our data. That will be put in video
as a picture form.
We made questionnaire all together. And other tasks to do were divided into 4 pieces,
surveying, filming videos, interviewing and editing. Among those jobs,
I'm in charge of taking interview in my group.
So, I have to practice and prepare for interviewing a strangers. It gives me little nervous
but I feel it would be also great experience.
Have
you seen the movie ‘Interstellar’? I remember that I watched it very interestingly. The story of
Interstellar is that the humanity is trying to find a new planet to live
instead of the Earth which is desolated by food deprivation and polluted air. We
all know that we cannot live in the Earth for eternally. Some time at the
future, we must get out of where we live today. Mars One Project is the first
try of humanity to settle in outer space.
Mars
One Project first suggested by Bas Lansdrop, the entrepreneur of Netherland.
With his co-worker, Arno Wielders, Bas Lansdrop set up the foundation in 2011 to
begin this project. They discussed the possibility and technological validity
with several aerospace agencies and experts. After that, they completed to draw
the road map for this enormous plan.

<Roadmap of Mars One Project>
This
infographic shows the total road map of Mars One Project. First, they plan to
put the amount of water and food. Then, Rover, the robot that will sent to the
Mars, will investigate the place where condition is optimum for human
surviving. Rover will also build the base camp before humans come to Mars, so
that people can come to Mars and live. About 2022, the first ‘Martians’ will be sent to the
Mars, arriving there after 6 months. In 2025, more settlers will arrive at Mars
and make a new society. Mars One Project will last over and over after all
steps are finished, by continuing all these steps as additional crew land every
two years.

In February
17th, 2015, Mars One selected 100 nominees of Martians. They are
composed with 50 men and 50 women, and various aged from 20s to 60s. 39 of them
came from America, 31 from Europe, 16 from Asia, and each 7 from Africa and
Oceania. After several training in the area that is similar to the Mars. Then,
Mars One plans to select 24 final nominees as a settler of Mars.

For more information, use this link to get
more information. It is the homepage of Mars One.
Mars One Project can provide
us some advantages. First, we can solve overflowing population problems by
pioneering new lands in the Mars. Second, we can use the astronomical amount of
resources stored in Mars. Scientists anticipate that various kinds of resources
that are significant to the human are buried in the Mars. Lastly, human can use
the Mars as a great place to study space. The Mars is pretty different to the
Earth, so the experiments and researches in the Mars can give us the chance to develop
science knowledge and technology.
<Problem
of Mars One Project>
Nevertheless of these advantages of pioneer
Mars, there are several problems of this project. First, the selected nominees
sent to the Mars are not allowed to come back to the Earth forever. This could
be a severe abuse of human right. So, many human right groups are opposing to
Mars One Project. Second, our technologies are so far to pioneer the Mars yet.
Although Mars One insists that they have enough technologies to do the project,
many experts evaluate that human are lack of technologies to settle in outer
space. This means, if the project failed and serious problems such as polluting
of the Mars occurred, we have no idea to handle those problems. Lastly, the
foundation still has not enough money to continue this project. Last year, Landrop
declared the delay of Mars One project due to the financial problems. Can they
collect enough money to complete this project in right time?
<My
Opinion about Mars One Project>
In My
opinion, the advantages of Mars One Project are bigger than the problems, and
this project must be continued until it successfully completed. Now, I will
express several reasons why I agree to this project. First of all, the Mars
must be pioneered someday. We cannot just give up discovering outer space. Even
it requires us sacrifice, we must do that as a human. Secondary, we can have
tremendous resources from the Mars. As mentioned, there are super immense
amount of metals and energy resources. If we discover the Mars, we could find
even more resources. These resources from the Mars will become the engine to
the development of economy and human society. Third, about the human right
abusing issue, nominees for the project already agreed to admit the risks they
will confront during project. It means, they know there will be hardships and
they promised not to regard it as right abusing. So, I think that the human
right abusing problems cannot be stand in this case. Lastly, lack of technology
will be solved during the project is processing, because human will continue to
discover more and more technologies.
My
recommendation about this topic is that we must have an interests and positive
considerations toward discovering the Mars. Of course, it is quite difficult to
us to do something for this topic, because we are not scientists or astronauts.
However, if we get a continuous interest and support this, it will help
humanity to discover the unknown world and to be developed.
Most people know that ramen is unhealthy food because its salt and fat.
However, so many people eat ramen so often that ramen can harm their health seriously.
The materials that make ramen unhealthy is sodium and saturated fat.
According to the research of Korea Consumer Agency(KCA), so much sodium and saturated fat
were included in ramen. Averagely, 51.3% saturated fat and 86.5% sodium of daily nutrition standard
were contained in just one pack of ramen. While daily nutrition standard sets 2000mg sodium
and 15g saturated fat as daily limit of intake, average 1729mg sodium and 7.7g saturated fat were
contained in one pack. This means, if somone intake more than two packs of ramen in one day,
his health can seriously damaged by ramen. KCA says that ramen manufacturing companies must
reduce the amount of sodium and sturated fat, and use more unsaturated fat.
I think what KCA said is necessary, but it is not realistic because companies will not follow
this advice. If they reduce the amount of sodium and saturated fat as KCA advised, their ramens
will become less tasty, which will lead to decrease of consumers. Rather, I think consumers must
control their intakes. Although ramen has so much sodium and saturated fat, it will not a problem
if we eat ramen less than before.
Do you like ramen? I guess you do :D
Ramen is very delicious food which so many people enjoy.
when you make ramen, you always think about "How can I make it taste better!", aren't you?
Today, for you, I would like to introduce some 'hney tips' to make ramen more delicious.
Isn't it interesting? Let's look about it!
1. Amount of water must be accurate!
The basic point to make delicious ramen is super-accurate amount of water. At the back of package, introduction tells you how much water you have to use. If you follow it, you will aquire at least normal-delicious ramen.
2. Put the noodle up and down continuously!
If you put the noodles up and down, noodle becomes
more chewy because it is exposed to cold air.
So even it's little tough, you must keep putting
the noddle up and down.
3. Keep fire strong!
From first step to last step, fire must be kept strong.
Strong fire makes sauce get inside to noodle.
You can taste more delicious noodle of you keep strong fire
during cooking.
4. How about use pepper?
Pepper's spicy taste and smell perfectly fit to ramen.
You will able to feel the great collaboration of those
two delicious things.
5. Put vinegar just one drop!
You would say "How can you say me to put vinegar in ramen?".
But if you try it, you will feel it delicious surprisingly.
Vinegar amplifies ramen's delicious taste with its sour taste.
The important thing is that you have to put it just one drop.
If you drop two or more, ramen will become so sour.

These tips will make your ramen more delicious and tasty.
Every websites have their own purposes, and those purposes can divided into about five types.
Let's look about it and some examples.
1) Entertaining : http://comic.naver.com/webtoon/weekday.nhn
Few of koreans will don't know about this website! It's really popular webtoon sites in Korea. Lots of webtoons of various genre are updating day by day. Readers choose such webtoons that fits to their interest, and since there are very diverse types of webtoons, from episodes to long piece or from comedy to romantic, the website are enough to give enjoyment to huge numbers of readers. Because it makes readers fun and enjoyable, I think it perfectly fits to the example of 'Entertaining website'.
2) Informative : http://www.wikipedia.org/
Maybe there will be no doubt that this website is definitely fits to the example of 'Informative website'. Wikipedia is kind of dictionary which contains enormous quantity of informations. Since it is online service, no matter where users are at, everyone can easily access to informations. Live dictionary that everyone can easily acquire informations at anywhere, Wikipedia is a perfect example of 'Informative website'.
3) Persuasive : http://www.lotteimall.com
This is an online shopping website of Lotte, one of the biggest company in Korea and Japan. Online shopping websites are pretty persuasive since they have to sell their products. Various fancy advertisements are all over the place. So I think these online shopping websites are great example of 'Persuasive website'.
4) Evaluative : http://edition.cnn.com/opinions
Every news websites have an opnion section, and this is opinion sites in CNN. In opinion section, reporters or experts, professors are telling their evaluations or opinions about the news and problems that we confront everyday. It can be informative, but I think it's more close to evaluative because it always include someone's thoughts and opinions. So I chose this website for an example of 'Evaluative website'.
5) Expressive : http://www.facebook.com
The website which I chose for an example of 'Expressive website' is Facebook. Users of Facebook updates their statue and diary in there. They express their feelings and thoughts with their experiences. They also upload many pictures to express their enjoyment. So I chose this website for an example of 'Expressive website'.
The topic of our infogram is "Universities in Seoul". It shows several informations about universities located in Seoul. This will become a navigator for someone who wants to visit those universities in Seoul. First, we chose to use bullentin board design as background. Since this infogram informs about universities, we tried to make readers feel a mood of university by using bulletin board design which frequently used in universities. Meanwhile, there's no special meanings at each colors of universities, because not many universities select their own color. So we put colors randomly. What we considered at color part was that each colors should not be overlapped. Based on the rainbow colors, we chose 10 different colors that does not really stack each others. Also, we put gradation effects in information boxes. Gradation effects make colors less thick and more bright, and that matches to the atmosphere of universities which filled with brightness and energy. If you want more informations about universities in Seoul, visit here and get more detailed informations. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_colleges_and_universities_in_Seoul
Today, we use multimedia tools, such as blog, twitter and facebook, so often in our life.
The fuction which I mostly like of multimedia tools is that they links people to people.
Of course, linking fuction is included in other types of communication like talking. But there's
one important difference that distinguish multimedia tools from other kinds of communications,
they can link far-placed people. By multimedia tools, people can communication with others
without sharing same space. For example, someone in America cannot 'talk' with other in Korea
because they are located so far from each other, they're not sharing same space. But they can
commuincate each other with multimedia tools because it doesn't restrainted by distance.
Even it looks so common, this function of multimedia tools made informations to flow faster
and human society to be more developed.
Meanwhile, if someone ask me what is your disliking point on multimedia tools,
I would answer about private invasion. Much of private informations are releasing in
multimedia tools, and because so many people could see others' information, the problem related to
private invasion is arising. I would be unpleased if someone I don't know have an informations about
me, such as my family, private life, or secrets.
I would like to try some multimedia tools that links direct to foreign people all over the world. It would be great if I could interchange with other culture's friends. We can learn about foreign cultures, and can advertise our cultures to foreign friends. This will eventually destroy cultural barrier
and give us a thought that we all are humans and friends, families.
Hello, my name is Wooyoung Cho. I'm from South Korea, a small country in East Asia. I'm 20 years old, graduated high school this year. And now I'm a freshman in Hanyang University which located in Seoul. I'm majoring in Civil & Environmental Engineering. I enjoy playing acoustic guitar and basketball. Well, if you have an interest to me or my country, don't hesitate and contact me. It would be great if we could be friend each other. Also, since English is not my major language, I can be little clumsy in using and communicate with English. Please excuse me about it. All foreign friends are welcomed. Hope you have a graet time in my blog XD.
