My curiosity towards working as a reporter prompted me to join The Dongguk Post. Now it is a big part of my school life. What would I have done for so many hours if I were not a reporter of the Post? Perhaps I would have wasted my time playing with my smartphone with no definite idea. The most diffi
I remember writing in my debut essay that my heart bloomed whenever I felt I was telling others the truth, what was really going around the school. Yet, after I wrote that sentence, I spent quite some time wondering to myself if I had been ready or will ever be ready to say with confidence that trut
Looking back on my memories with the Post, I was able to earn the most valuable aspects of my life during these two years working. My future career is one of them. Journalist was not exactly what I wished for when I was looking for jobs because I had certain stereotypes towards journalists. The movi
I worked as a student reporter of The Dongguk Post for two years, more specifically, for 22 months. Honestly, not every single moment was satisfying. Of course, there had been some moments I wanted to give in through my term as a reporter; I had suffered from a bunch of tasks that I had to deal with
This is the final article I am writing as a reporter of The Dongguk Post. I could not even imagine this moment during my life in the Post because I did not feel confident enough to finish my term while I was having difficulties in dealing with tasks given to me. It was really hard for me to find the
During the last two years, I have been spending three hours and 30 minutes a day for commuting to school. With a bit of exaggeration, I spent half of my school life commuting to school from Gyeonggi-do. It made me very tired even by just coming to school and I always had to worry about transportatio
In 2004, the National Election Commission warned the former President Noh Moo-hyun that the person in charge of Election Commission should not violate the electoral law. Then the National Assembly voted on the bill for President Noh’s impeachment and asked the Constitutional Court for impeachment ju
I am a student who is waiting for a new semester on March. Unlike other students who have many semesters left, I only have one semester left before graduation. If you ask about the mindset about new semester to freshmen or sophomore, I might be able to say that I will enjoy my school life and study
On February 1st, the sixth Tuition Fee Review Commission was held at 4:30 P.M. It was decided that tuition fee for undergraduates including newly and previously enrolled students would be frozen while that of international students’ would increase. At the same time, already for a long time, Korean g
As the clock ticked through the dying hours of November 8th, the petrified and horrified faces of Clinton supporters could only watch as what was supposed to be an easy victory had slowly become their worst nightmare. To them, a man who had done nothing but preach hatred, sexism, and racism was now
When we first think of South Korea, the image that comes to our minds is technological advancements, Hyundai cars, and, increasingly, Korean culture. A true nod to the phenomenon that is South Korea’s rise to the international stage. It came as a shock to the people of South Korea after the Choi Soo
Throughout the history of college starting from the medieval times, learning and books, especially textbooks, were in an indispensable relationship. Before the arrival of information technology, both student and teacher were familiar with printed paper books since there were no other way to collect
As a French exchange student I see a lot of similarities between France and Korea. Seoul, the capital city of Korea, and Paris, the capital city of France, have lot in common. The first common point I noticed is the Namsan Tower and the Eiffel Tower. These two towers have 100 meter difference, but I
“Women can be raped, because they wear shorts and hang around during the night.” This is what I saw when some male suspects justified their malicious behavior. Women, especially Koreans, are living in a society where male’s fault is due to female’s carelessness. Until now, women have endured various
Two seasons have passed since I entered The Dongguk Post and now I am preparing for my second article in the newspaper. When I recall my memory of applying for the Post, I remember I did not have a strong sense of duty as a reporter because I did not know how much time and effort it would involve. H
The summer vacation is coming to an end, now the fall semester begins. For Korean students, summer vacation is quite a long vacation, lasting from late June to the end of August. This time away from regular studies affords students with numerous options to take advantage of before the next school ye
