What’s your home town famous for?
My hometown is 동해 city in Gangwondo provice, which is located in the eastern part of Korea. It is a small city and I lived there for 20 years. It is famous for beaches and squids, so many people come to visit the ocean. I like the area because it’s quiet and calm than other cities
Is there anything you dislike about it?
when I lived there, I didn’t realize it but after moving, I felt that there were not many convenient facilities. In Daegu, there are many facilities near my house so it is very comfortable. sometimes, living there was a bit uncomfortable
Did you learn about the history of your hometown at school?
No, we usually concentrated on the country’s history like the Korean war. I don’t know a lot about the history of 동해 because we didn’t learn it in school

What’s your favorite room in your apartment/house?
I live in a low-rise apartment alone. It’s been about 2 years since I lived here. I am planning to live here for another 2 years. My house has two rooms and my bedroom has a bed, TV, and a closet. My favorite area is the bedroom because the view is beutiful and it is the most comfortable
What do you usually do in your flat?
What makes you feel pleasant in your home?
Usually, I use my computer to watch some Youtube videos or play games. Every morning, I look out my window and the view is so beautiful and it makes me refreshed and delighted everyday. These days, I spend most of my time studying English at home.
Do you prefer living in a house or a flat?
What kind of house or flat do you want to live in in the future?
Since I live alone now, I prefer to live in an apartment rather than a house. It would be nice to have a small but comfortable apartment with about 2 rooms and a great mountain view. I think a house would be too big for me and there wouldn’t be many things to manage in an apartment
What’s the difference between where you are living now and where you have lived in the past?
In the past, I lived in Incheon with my parents. The house was more spacious and the location was more convenient than now since it was in the city center. My current house is smaller and located right below a mountain
Do you think it is important to live in a comfortable environment?
Yes, comfortable environments are important because people usually spend a lot of time at home. The comfort from houses mainly determines their satisfaction about their house. People need to rest and recharge their energy for the next day
