I found this Global camp very interesting, because we have toi make our presentation in english with our friends who has similar interest and similar goals.

I participated in this camp because I wanted to share my thoughts as well as make presentations with our friends who dream of becoming journalists rather than thinking about my dream alone.

I wanted to study women’s right more because I dreamed of becoming journalist and the purpose was to help female, those who are suffering from strict Islamic rules. Furthermore, while considering issues related to Goryeo to commemorate of 1,100 years of the Goryeo Dynasty, the topic of women's rights in Goryeo was chosen. Although I was very interested in women's rights, I knew little about it. I just expected the lives of women has advanced rather than the Joseon Dynasty, but did not know about women’s right during the Goryeo Dynasty and why women’s rights were higher during the Goryeo Dynasty. Through this activity, I wanted to learn various views on women's rights of Goryeo and women's rights of other countries because I think understanding our country’s women's rights is the first priority to understand the human rights of the world. To investigate Goryeo’s women rights, our group had a meeting because we wondered that why women’s rights falls during the Joseon Dynasty, what is the condition of women’s right now?

and why the issue of feminism is so popular in Korea these days. So finally, we did a comparative analysis research activities about women’s social state centering around changing time of Goryeo, Joseon, and Modern Times.

Among them, I check and sum up the news of indicators of modern women's human rights and translate into English. As we know, the human rights of Korean women are not that high. Looking for various articles on discrimination against women, I found that there are many factors that encourage discrimination, such as wages for men and women, job rate differences, and words that discriminate against women. The biggest reason for the wage difference between men and women is unknown, and next is marriage and childbirth that are significantly disadvantageous to women. Thanks to, the a demonstration for the recovery of women's status like Hyehwa station protests and the Me-too movements and Feminism diffuse widespread in our country.

Also, I compared the social status of women of Goryeo and Joseon, and wrote a conclusion and translated it. Goryeo’s women's status was equal to men until the arrival of Neo-confucianism. The Goryeo women was able to remarry, inherit property equally, and have her name listed in the family tree by birth order, in order to avoid discrimination against son. However, the patriarchal culture became stronger with the introduction of Neo-confucianism in the late Goryeo and the readjustment of the marriage system after Joseon’s found. As a result, women were banned from remarrying, were not able to attend the ceremony and were even restricted from acquiring knowledge. Thus, I was able to learn that Neo-confucianism had a very repressive function for women. Currently, women's rights is not too high but is much better than before, we should have more interest in the women's rights and talk more about feminism in our public life.

Thus, we need to pay more attention to women's rights, and we need to educate others about the relationship between human ethics and Goryeo history, and we need to learn about all female human rights violations in relation to the present. Then, how should the media be covering? Whether to stand on the side of a relatively weak women or deliver the news objectively will be a endless concern.

There are voices that media should on women’s side to reform the contradictory social system to promote gender equality because they are discriminated against men. On the other hand, some argue that the media should only deliver facts objectively because it should deliver fair news without being biased. Despite of many women are still being discriminated, these days, women require feminism in a radical way, such as womadeu. I dreamed of a world where Journalist play an important role for the upliftment of women, and write an article in the journal related to feminism. I think if journalist will support our issues, I can realize my dream soon.
