Agree/Disagree. It is important to know about events happening around the world even if it is unlikely that they affect your daily life. |
Everyday we hear the news of the country and the world. Enormous amount of information is flowing into our daily lives through newspaper, television and Internet. However, some people ignore the importance of knowing about events happening around the world which may be irrelevant to their life. I firmly belive that it is critical to know what is happening in the world. Fundamentally, it is a great learning tool. Plus, it is a interests for everybody. First of all, news can be a excellent learning material. It is a good opportunity to learn about other cultures and major issues that are pervasive in the world. News not only provides political issues but also renders cultural and social issues. They can be the source of inspiration and creativity which leads us to have a better outlook on life and our society. For example, despite all my years of learning in high school, I had no clear understanding of my country's political theme and its process. It is largely because ignorance of political issues had no serious impact in my life. However, through the issue of Dokdo, the island that belongs to South Korea, I was able to document the atmosphere of the political background between Korea and Japan. Even further, I realized that it was related also to the United States. After that, I am more interested in political issues. Moreover, it is interesting to know about the news around the world. Even though it may not affect your life, it can change your interest. For example, people feel more comfortable with people that are close. One of the ways to become close with other people is to make a common interest. My friend came from Vietnam who majors in Korean Language. First, I thought it would be hard to get along well with her since we had no common interest. However, Contrary to my previous thought, she almost knew more than me about latest Korean culture. She said the more you find out about your interest, there are more things to find out and experience. She enjoys Korean culture such as soap operas, Korean pop songs, movies and even foods. It would not had happened if she had not drawn her interest to Korea. When you try to see, there are too many things to see. In conclusion, I strongly believe that it is crucial for one to be aware of the news that are going around the world. It will provide you with a chance to learn more and a chance to have diverse interest.
