Summary
Poland had a severe economic crisis in the 1980s. There were many mistakes in foreign currency management. Under the Edward Gierrek government in the early '70s, the government implemented an economic opening policy, when it was good to borrow a large sum of money from the West and build a factory. Numerous tourists flocked from the West to Poland and the economy grew rapidly again. The problem was internally planned economy and externally operated in a Western way, and the oil shock dampened exports, coupled with interest rate hikes, led to massive foreign debts and eventually worsened. Thus, he reduced welfare policies to pay off his foreign debts and caused confusion. Large-scale riots and anti-government movements have occurred and suffered negative growth. Korea is the Korean War broke out after the Japanese colonial exploitation, fell into extreme difficulties. For the two countries, nature was only a resource. It was a great luxury to try to preserve nature when it was urgent to make an immediate living. That's why it's been going on so far. 

Interesting


It is surprising that Poland has experienced a similar situation as Korea. Of course, the details are different, but they have suffered some economic hardship in common. 

Discussion
So is it impossible for all countries with such economic conditions to preserve nature? So, is conservation possible only in advanced countries, and is conservation impossible in underdeveloped countries? And if you've joined the ranks of advanced countries, you'll have to strive for nature conservation, but most countries don't. What is this?

How can we reduce the suicide rates in Korea?

How can we reduce the suicide rates in Korea? -       Since Korea is the number one suicide rate among OECD countries, many efforts have been made to lower it. Currently, the government is establishing a public-private cooperation system to prevent suicide based on the community. In addition, emergency medical institutions are working together to prevent suicide attempters from leading to secondary suicide, thereby strengthening the response to suicide attempts and preventing secondary spread. In addition to this, the government has made numerous efforts, including specialized suicide prevention projects for each life cycle and creating a culture of respect for suicide prevention life. But the first thing to change is people's perception of psychiatry. Depression, a major cause of suicide, is a disease, so it is natural to go to the hospital for treatment. However, many people in Korea think that going to a psychiatrist is strange. It is thought that it is difficult to reduce

Week 11-4. Did you find yourself changing your presentation when you met with different people? Male/females? Attractive/ nor attractive? Others?

I personally find myself changing my presentation with different people. I am much comfortable with females because the conversation topic is more in common and girls are often more compassionate than boys. I find myself more comfortable, funny and soft in front of girls. Also, I become very talkative and outgoing when I'm with people that I think are attractive. I feel desire to appeal myself when I see someone that I like, because naturally you can be more awkward and less confident when you're interested in that person but I don't want to hide myself.  I am usually relaxed and calm in person but attractive friends make me active, which can give me inner energy so I try to hang out with favorite people a lot.
