Family name in South Korea

Hello readers,

I know it's been a while since I post something on this blog. I have many reasons to not be able to write anything here but mostly because I was really busy of school. And now that semester is over, I can continue writing :).

Alright, during semester I took this really interesting class which actually my interest in this class did not give me my expected grade (it destroyed the beauty of my grade!!!!!) nevertheless, I got much much better knowledge which I think the sweetest thing in taking this class. This class was Korean Culture for International Student. Yup, I loved this class. You know, the first year i was here i thought i had enough of this korea thing. Like, i have been to many places in Korea, an island, museums, amusement parks, (just) parks, universities, coffee cafe, restaurants, shopping malls, traditional markets, traditional village, sleep in traditional house, etc ... but this class gave me something fresh, really crunchy like cookies from the oven.

This is one interesting lesson. About family name in korea. As you might know, there are a lot of Kim(s) in korea, and yeah from this class I became to know that in fact, Kim is on number one in the list of family names in korea, here are the top 10:

1. 김 (Kim)
2. 이 (Lee)
3. 박 (Park)
4. 최 (Choi)
5. 정 (Jung)
6. 강 (Kang)
7. 조 (Jo)
8. 윤 (Yoon)
9. 장 (Jang)
10. 임 (Im)

isn't it interesting? ... no? hahah anyway, I guess I will post many interesting things that I have learned from this class. And regardless, I am back!!!

Merry Christmas for whoever celebrate it :)

Hello readers,

As you might have notice I have changed the theme of my blog. It is now more general which means that it is no longer specialized in korea stuff. Anyhow, I am still posting about korea stuff too.

Inha University | 인하대학교

On February 28, I officially registered as a student in Inha University majoring in Information Engineering which definitely will be changed by me to Computer Engineering when I go to the second year. Inha University is small in size, but I see no problem with it, since it decrease the distance from where I live to where I study. I stayed in dormitory for 1 semester, now I live outside. Let's start from the dormitory.

Inha has 2 dormitories, maybe more, there are 2 that I know. The first one is located in front of the main gate of Inha called Ungbijae, and the second one is located, you can say, beside Inha university called biryongjae. As the second one is the newest, it offers better living experience than the first one, but of course it's kind of more expensive.

GO to the dormitory page, and you can experience the panorama view of both dormitory.

As I am a student majoring in Information Engineering, I always go to this building called Hi-Tech. It is 15 floors building near the back gate. And if you go outside through the back gate, you'll see heaven :).

Now that the first semester is over. I got nice grade :).
