Essay

Before joining the global issue forum camp for the first time, I didn't know exactly what it was and thought it would be difficult. But I thought that I can learn something even though it's difficult. Also, I participated with the idea that ‘ Will this opportunity come again?’ and ‘Let's take this opportunity to improve my English skills.’ It was a difficult subject to me because of the subject that I had never been exposed to it and not having much data. But the kind and detailed explanations of the native English teachers and professor Kim Hyun's explanation touched me so deeply that I did not doze but listened very hard.

The reason why we chose the subject of ' Comparing the Science and Technology of the Koryo ' is because we are capable of the technology of the Goryeo Dynasty. and compared the characteristics of the guns and metal types with those of other countries. We thought this pocess would be an opportunity to explain the excellence of the technology of the Goryeo Dynasty. I also wanted to build various knowledge of Goryeo as we are now in Ganghwa, the capital of Goryeo. And I didn't study only our own, but also foreign comparison, and thought it would be a perfect subject for finding the excellence and security of our products. These ideas have led to the creation of the theme ‘Comparison of Scientific Technology between Korea and Foreign Countries.’

Our team divided science technology into cannon and metal types. The cannon was first invented in the Goryeo Dynasty by Choi Moo Sun. The challenge was to find out the physical characteristics of the cannons and find out what kind they were. Metal types were used to study what scientific technology was used and what characteristics compared to German type. I have never explored these two subjects in depth before, and the only knowledge I know is that Goryeo's metal types are ahead of Germany. Although it was hard to explore a topic that lacked background knowledge, I felt myself very proud and growing. I take on a role of making ppt presentation material based on organized data. I also take on a role of finding how printing technology has developed in modern times. I learned a great deal from making presentations by simply compressing and organizing the materials that have come out so far and using the Media Wiki to do simple coding. There is a typical 3D printer in modern printing. Now we have a cutting edge in printing ideas as well as text messages. While searching for data, I also saw a lot of information about metal types from Goryeo. One of a document printed in metal type is Jikji. The metal type is made of brass. The reason for this is that the brass is satisfy the characteristics of melting and slowly harding and free from ink damage. Also, paper used korean paper and ink used Yoo Yeon Mook(油煙墨). It is made of a mixture of soot , glue, and such as paulownia oil or redwood oil that is well coated on a smooth metal surface. This unique characteristic of Korea met the optimum conditions for good use of metal types. The tenacity, passion and wisdom of our ancestors, who finished each type manually, seem to have contributed to making the modern printer.

Through this camp, I hope to improve my English skills by talking with native English teachers and writing reports in English. My future hope is to be an air controller. Because air traffic controllers need English, I hope this camp will help me in many ways. Also, I hope myself will be interested in the history of Korea and take pride in Ganghwa, which was the capital of Goryeo. Lastly, since our group subject is the science and technology of Goryeo, I hope it will be a camp where I can learn knowledge related to science.
