This year is the 1,100 year of Goryeo Dynasty.And because Gang-hwa is the capital of Goryeo, there are various relics of Goryeo. I thought that it was an experience that I did not know about Goryeo because it allowed me to do many activities related to Goryeo in school. The biggest reason why I felt that I had to participate was because I heard that the camp was conducted in English first and that it was related to Goryeo which I had been exposed to a lot in school. Next, I wanted to have various experiences in English and explain the history of Goryeo that the native teacher who came to help us does not know about Goryeo. Though I am not good at English or fluent in pronunciation, I thought I was confident that I could explain it to the best of my ability. Moreover, these days, unless I go abroad, I thought this could be a great opportunity because it is rare to see a foreigner in Ganghwa
Our group consisted of groups interested in education. When our group first got together to decide on the topic, we selected the topic based on the Kukjagam, the largest educational institution in Korea. The reason is that my dream is to be a science teacher of middle and high school, and The school we are currently receiving education was known as Gukjagam and Hyanggyo during the Goryeo Period, so we thought educational institutions were important. Considering the international community, which is an educational institution, we thought it is best to investigate and publish education system, and civil service examination, so we decided on the civil service examination, education system and education institution. Actually, although I lived in Ganghwa Island was the capital city of Goryeo for 39 years, I did not know it properly. Among them, I knew about the civil service examination of Goryeo, the largest educational institution, the Gukjagam, and Hyanggyo which was a local educational institution. I was knew of the basic information but i can not feel proud. Through this camp, I wanted to be proud of what I did know, and if someone asked about Goryeo, I would like to answer proudly.
The representative thing I learned from this expedition is the basic background of the system and the originality and characteristic of the Gukjagam. Although i knew the civil service examination but i did not know how such a system was implemented. Ssang-gi naturalized in Hu Ju, China, proposed to Guangjong the past system implemented in China to recruit new talent according to Confucian scholarship and ability. And the originality and characteristic of Gukjagam, Gukjagam is a central role in education and the institutions have been strengthened. I felt that the information I knew was really nothing, which I thought was just an educational institution What I did before I do the presentation is setting the frame for the basic information and content of the title we selected and took part and translated it into English. Finally, i was involved in preparing the materials for the presentation.
When I came to the Global Issues Forum Camp, I think I have learned a lot of information about Goryeo. Of course, I know it from the perspective of education, but I think I have strengthened the basic knowledge a little bit. And I think if friends ask about Goryeo, I can explain information more confidently than anyone else. It was good to speak English here in camp that I do not usually use and I feel I have to study history and English harder. If I can join this camp again next year, I will definitely participate in it.
