Week five Homework

This week assignment is to choose one of the following.

-Watch Korean historical film or drama and summarize it in 1 minute.
(make video, take photo, drawing, writing)
-Research a Korean historical event or issue and Present your opinion on this topic.
-Draw the Korean Peninsula and make your own Korean information map.

I chose to do the last option: Draw the Korean peninsula and make your own Korean information map.

When I was the option I immediately thought of the Busan Film festival, But then i didn't know what else to put on it so, I decided to do festivals. After that I had to research about the subject because apart from the Busan film festival and the Boryeong mud festival I didn't know any. I found quite a few festivals but then decided that to make it all fit and look nice I should do only one for each county. So festivals like the Muju Firefly festival in Jeollabuk-do and other had to be left out... Next was that some of the county's didn't seem to have any! like ChungChongBuk-Do for example I could only find one (Later I also found a grape festival but...) But the actual festival in question didn't have much info on it on the internet so I'm not 100% sure if it's still doing or not.... 

Anyhow I had fun drawing, researching, cutting, sticking and everything else and I really learnt a lot from doing it too! Hope you like it and my be learn about the different festivals in South Korea from it.
