Journal week 9: Heroism - what are your thoughts?

This week, we talked about several peace activists who are widely thought of as heroes. You also told me who you think of as a hero in Korea. Now, I'd like to hear you tell me about who your personal heroes are, if you have any. Who do you admire? Why do you admire them? What did they say or do? Use your vocabulary (p. 80/85) and practice this week's grammar point (p. 83/88) to tell me about your heroes.

Do you need some inspiration? You can check out my slideshow from class below. You can also watch Byron Garcia's Prison Dances on Youtube if you click here.

    In my opinion, Jangyoungsil was a hero. He was the scientists and engineers in the Korean King Sejong. He invented Jagyokru, a water clock, which was creative in the world.
    He also invented Cheukwoogi, a tool to examine the amount of rain. And he helped to farm people.
    Though he was a great inventor, he had a hard time. Because his social level was very low.
    But, King Sejong had found his talent, and hired him.
    I think he is one of the best Korean inventor hero.

  9. My sister is my hero because I respect her in many ways; she is always better than me. The first reason is that her art talent is superior. When she was an elementary student she received an award five times at an art competition, two at a music competition. Secondly, she is smart. When she was in middle school she received all A+ for three years straight. Thirdly, she is pretty. She does not need to put in much effort to be popular. Lastly, she is diligent. While I use money without making plans, she uses money wisely. She is pretty, smart, good at singing, and diligent. I want to be like her.

  10. As a hero, I will introduce you to the No Moo Hyun president.
    The president always has to work for the people.
    He had a warm heart.
    Sometimes he is a farmer and father, as a friendly image.
    But the president after he has been really hard.
    He chose death, many people were sad.
    He was brilliant and a great person.
    Even though he is dead but they will live in my heart.

    sinyunbok is known as a painter.
    Because of that man of blasphemy by drawing the man cleared his footsteps.
    The fact that anger is a good guy until the sinyunbok.
    As a painter of the Chosun sinyunbok honest
    frozen community and the effort of trying to put on the side of human emotion.
    Be honest and know that God has wanted to reveal.
    Even if the bastards had been kicked out of graphical standing in the trail, almost historic.
    But his pictures and find no freaking geurimsok mean damgyeojin will be deleted.
    Almost we knows he is a man, but some people knows he is a woman.
    In fact, I don't know he is man or woman.
    Anyway, he is hero of Korea
