Hyejin Kim/The Place/Wed 11a.m.

 

 

My home in hometown

Hyejin Kim

 

The place I feel most comfortable is my home in hometown, Changwon. As Changwon is near Busan metropolitan city, it is quite far from here. It takes about 3hours with KTX (Korea Train Express) and it is hard to visit my home during semester. Since I was just 4 years old, I have lived in the home and attending this university I moved to Seoul alone. However I can imagined the home exactly whenever I like to. There are three rooms, two toilets, kitchen and living room. Each room is used by my grandmother, parents, and younger brother. There are a TV, a bed, and an old black closet in my grandmother's room and grandmother usually prepares every meal for our family. In my parents' room, there are a computer, toilet, very big bed and closet and parents are always busy at work. So my brother often uses computer to play online game. Kitchen is full of the smell of healthy food that grandmother made for us including hot rice, spicy kimchi, and various soups. Younger brother's room is messed up by some clothes and many books. There are family pictures and several bookshelves in living room because mother encouraged me to read a lot of books. As I lived there long time, the home is the symbol of my family's history itself and I miss it whenever I feel frustrated.

    what i like about this writing is it shows various situations in your home and senses of tham. I like the parts that you describe food and brother's room because they were described lively with senses of taste and view. I also like that you wrote about the background. I think if you add auditorial sense with some situations, this writing would be better. thanks.

  2. What I liked in this paragraph is description about grandmother’s healthy food. I never had seen your grandmother, but I could feel many things, love for grandmother and love of grandmother and the taste of her food and unreasonable missing like these. Yes, your writings aroused me sympathy. But I didn’t understand some contents. In fact, it was not contents but kind of connection. In the sentence, ‘Since I was just 4 years old~, However I can~ like to’ I wondered why you use the ‘however’. I thought because you lived there for many years, so it is natural that you can imagine your house. So, I think it is better ‘therefore’ rather than ‘however’

Since I was just 4 years old, I have lived in the home and attending this university I moved to Seoul alone. Living really long time there, I can imagined the home exactly whenever I like to.

In my parents' room, there are a computer, toilet, very big bed and closet and parents are always busy at work. So the room is very queit except when my brother uses computer to play online game talking with other players through headphone. Kitchen is full of the smell of healthy food that grandmother made for us including hot rice, spicy kimchi, and various soups. Younger brother's room is messed up by some clothes and many books.
