US VS KOREA

When I came here, first I was really suprised about the environment. Because there are a lot of trees, corn, and beautiful landscapes, at first I thought that I was in the one of the movie scene.

Surely all America nature is not same as Iowa.Therefore from now on I want to compare to Korea and Iowa about culture and natural environment.

In Korea, in fact there are no areas where the natural animal can live. I think because our country is so small, so Korea needs a place for building, farm, and factory. So sometimes natural mountains turn to ground~!! What amazing technology we have~!!haha......

In addition Korea has a culture that we should be polite to older people. Because of that reason, we also have special polite words for younger people. However in America, they don't care about age. All of them can be friends. I was really suprised about this at first. But it is good for relationships and communication. We don't need to care about words; they just say to older people what they always say. It's really comfortable.

Also America preserves the environment very well. Iowa does too. When I saw the deer, I was knocked out. That is impossible in Korea. Anyway, it can be really good experiences for me about two different cultures.
