Review : illegal immigrants in Korea

Recently, the news which is concerned about illegal immigrants are easily exposed in TV. Since the illegal immigrants are increased, a more problems are occurred. This is why many people said that we don't have to be given a chance for them to stay. But I disagree with that opinion. I think that the people who immigrant to Korea illegally should be given a chance to stay.
Before 1960's, Korea was very poor. Even some people don't have enough money to eat. so many Korean people immigrant to developing countries such as America, Japan and Canada illegally. They just wanted to earn money for their family. Korean suffered from the people who were living in the rich countries. They had hard time. Even government didn't have power to protect people. Now, illegal immigrant situation in Korea is also similar with our experience of past. Illegal immigrants in Korea also want to earn money just for their family. We should remember our past. We do not deny them unless sometimes the illegal immigrants commit a crime.
Moreover, most of them are working in the factory which is related with 3D industry. So, Korean youth doesn't want to work there. If illegal immigrants could not work in the factory, the factories are really short-handed. This would cause severe problem for economic development of Korea.
Although, they are staying here illegally, we can get some benefits from them and they get benefits. It's good interdependence. We should guarantee their wages and their rights.

Review : the popularity of luxuries in Korea

 People who lives in Korea can watch that many actors are using an expensive imported car on the TV. In addition, many actors on the TV drama are using many kind of luxury product such as Prada ,Burberry, Gucci, and. Many Koreans who watched the TV drama can think that is a very fantastic about actor's life. Many Koreans who wants to imitate the actor's life are going to desire. Moreover, The more new generation such as teenagers increase in Korea, the more it seems that they want to follow to actor's life than adult. This shows Many women of modern society think the possession of luxury goods to show their social status.
 However, appearance is only a small portion of the criteria for judging the person’s character. That is, Common sense tells us that goods cannot define ourselves, and with that set of mind people tend to look down upon those who chase after nothing but money and material. Also, most of them who want to gather the luxuries cannot follow to actor's life because they should pay a lot of money. Many people become feel unhappy after they realize the reality. In other words, if many Koreans just focused on the materialistic society, they get only discouraged. In addition, the appearance-oriented society really makes you miss important things, the value of mental. Seeking for emotional value rather than material things that makes it enriches our lives. Especially, now the time is when we need to emphasize it.

Review : Yellow dust & desertification

As heavy rain fell last month in Thailand, the news that Bangkok city is almost flooded was definitely notable in the world. On the other hand, some of the places are badly in need of rain now. China's Gobi desert is one of those places. The Gobi desert is dry and infertile. China's rapid economic growth has led to widespread clearing of vegetation, causing the Gobi and other desert areas to expand. And a prolonged drought in a desert region will increase the desert's size. This is a serious problem but there is another even more serious problem. When spring comes. It's because Seasonal strong winds are blowing yellow dust from the deserts in China. The winds carry billions of microscopic sand particles. Meanwhile, robust increase in Chinese manufacturing is pouring industrial pollutants into the air. So, The dust which originates in the Gobi Desert in China bind together with heavy metals and carcinogens such as dioxin from industrial cities in eastern China. the dust storms from the deserts of Mongolia and northern China intensify year after year. Unfortunately, There is no still the sure solution to the yellow dust.
As yellow dust can cause eyes and nose problems, many people are worried about their health. Unavoidably when the season for yellow dust coming, make sure you wear masks when you go out. Also, remember to wash your hands often. You should keep the windows and doors closed, so that the yellow sand can’t get into your house. These are the precautionary measure that we can do it in person.
