Global Camp helps to learn broad academic Knowledge
It was my second participation for Global Issues Forum Camp also it was my last camp. That's why I really wanted to investigate Ganghwa society at this global camp. I am very interested in sociology, so I explored women's human rights in my first camp. After attending my first camp, I was greatly influenced by the global camp and persuaded my friends to participate in the global camp. My friends asked me. Why on earth do you recommend this camp? I said, while participating in the global camp, I was able to learn more about my interests by discussing with foreign teachers and exploring more widely with them. As I learned deeply about my favorite field, I could see myself actively participating in the camp without knowing it. I did not do well in my first camp , but my knowledge and experience were able to grow. And This is why I recommend global camp to others and also participate this camp again.
At this global camp, we will look into the shaman by paying attention to the connection between the Ganghwa and the Dangun Wanggeom , the nation's first shaman. I am not only expanding my knowledge of shamanism and looking at new approaches but also I can develop relations with others, including native English teachers. At this global camp, we will look into the shaman by paying attention to the connection between the Ganghwa and the Dangun Wanggeom , the nation's first shaman. I am not only expanding my knowledge of shamanism and looking at new approaches but also I can develop relations with others, including native English teachers. Also, at the global camp, there are almost every discussion activity that was not often possible during school hours. Therefore, students will be able to develop many skills through self-directed research by discussing with friends and asking questions.
A Reason Why We Choose The Topic Of A Shaman=
Our team's topic is Society and Culture of Ganghwa in the Modern Period. And we chose a shaman as the subject of a Ganghwa society. What is the relationship between shamanism and Ganghwado? From now on, I will explain the link between shamanism and Ganghwa society. To explain it, we have to go back to ancient Korea. Gojoseon is the first ancient country in Korean history. And the King of Gojoseon, Dangun, is the mythical founder of the Korean people. His name, "Dan-gun," means shaman, and "Wang-geom" means king. In other words, the founder of the Korean shaman is the Dangun Wanggeom, and in the shamanistic faith, the Dangun is regarded as a god. And surprisingly, the place where King Dangun performed ancestral rites to heaven is Manisan Mountain in Ganghwa. In other words, Ganghwa was the place where the Dangun Wanggeom, the origin of the Korean shaman, performed ancestral rites. This is the connection between the Dangun Wanggeom and Ganghwado, namely the connection between the shamanism and Ganghwa.
