- I like this fil,. Because this film is my first film that to watch for studying about something. And this film is chance for me to thinking about life in another country as an immigration. If Tarek's story is actuality, that is cruel.

My Picture..



























Just kidding.

Culture Shock

I dont feel culture shock in the USA. Actually I feel really rarely 'Shock' about something. And there is some reason that why I dont feel culture shock in the USA.
Beacuse I study English quite long time and USA is a little bit familiar to me. Because my aunt lives in USA, my parants were lived in USA and I was born in USA. So USA is not extremly 'A New World' to me. But being a frends with natives is very hard. That is no language barrier. culture barrier. That is race barrier I think.

Music!!!

H.W. : What is all about you?

I'm Jay. Jay Jiwoo Park. From Korea. I was born in America, but I lived in Korea all life, so actually I'm Korean.

Studying in USA is better than study in Korea. Because USA univ. teachs more ..more...well..... I hate my vocabulary.

H.W. : American culture are...

American culture are diversity. There'r many races live and many different culture like salada.
Cause so many culture are melted, America become the strongest country.

H.W. : American people are...

American people are, in my opinion, more friendly than Korean people do.
So, they easiely say hello to strangers. And American people are littlebit rude watch by Korean sight. They say 'What's up?' to proffeser that they do like with friends.
But It's just culture. so I don't care about it.
