The convenience of smartphone
In today's korea society, most individuals has a smartphone even children. Smartphone provides so many useful application and so, Many individuals can enjoy convenience. today's Smartphone provide the time for arrival of bus,substation and Social network service such as kakaotalk, facebook and twitter.
The problem
Many individuals can enjoy convenience using smartphone. But there are some problem. individuals lost "real communication". They communicate in the network not in reality. Just sending a kakaotalk or writing a comment in facebook is all communication they behaved. It is a real problem. Because these communication make a sense of "emptiness" after all.
Another problem is "smartphone addiction". individuals touch smartphone frequently all day all night. It seems smartphone is only one friend of them. They hold smartphone all day, if there are no smartphone, They seem to be a restless.
Solution
Sometimes, It would be better off keeping away from smartphone and think about my human relationship and already wasted life for using smartphone frequently.
Why don't we write some letter to friend and family? I think It is refreshing and a totally new experience. one by one, The more you back to analogue such as writing a letter, the easily you can resist a temptation of smartphone.

Defendency theory(Extra)
Defendency theory explains backwardness of advancing country and reasons of that.
After second world war, defendency theory is suggested by south american theorists through specific reality that time. Because south america suffer from poverty despite of export-focus development theory, industry development, global corporation development, south american wonder "why we have poverty still now?". Also, sociologists in south america have question about "What is underdevelopment? And why underdevelopment continue still nowadays?". These thinking about underdevelopment problem magnifies to defendency theory. Most south american theorists suggest that develop theory in western society cannot apply to south america, so they want to make theory for practical development of south america.
The problem of defendency theory is in theory itself. Inequality problem in defendency theory appears among other countries and in one countries, it not only appears between developed country and third world country(developing country).
I think dependency theory is extension of third world theory. And there are many efforts to avoid inequal relation between developing country and developed country today. But I think inequality on that relationship still continues. It always remains in global relationships, I think so. Our conception about this global structure : it is rightful, fair thing cannot disappear well.

Through this course.
What is the most useful/interesting thing I have learned in this course.
Through this course, I have learned so many things related to sociology. I'm impressed the class of introduction to sociology/introduction the most. Especially, through the class, It was meaningful for me that learning for "operationalization". I think I got useful knowledge considering I majored in sociology. I remember that professor said operationalization is one of the most important concept that the intellectual must have.
Although this course is "Introduction" to sociology, I think It would be better if we learn about sociology detailedly such as specific sociologist and their ideology about society.
I wish we could do group project. For example, 4-5 people gather statistics, research material and discuss the subject and make a presentation. Then, They announcement presentation in english.

[Extra] Controversy in regulations on free trade
The practice of selling a product in a foreign market at a price lower than it commands in the producer's domestic market is called dumping. Critics of free trade often argue that foreign governments give substantial support to their own exporting companies. Government support may permit these firms to extend their export markets by offering lower prices abroad. In retaliation for this interference with free trade, the US adds import tariffs to products that foreign firms dump on US markets to bring their prices in line with those of domestically produced products. However, business often complain that charges of dumping must undergo a lengthy investigative and bureaucratic procedure before the government assesses import duties. US firms claiming that dumping threatens to hurt their business can file a complaint with the US International Trade Commission, which - on average - rejects about half the claims it receives.
Lowbrow drama
Lowbrow drama

For example, in the drama, the character was caught in the act of "adultery" by his wife or husband or just die suddenly. The reason? There is no reason why they behaved in that manner. As mentioned earlier, this drama is lowbrow.

Individuals start watching drama just thinking finish "this" up. But They soon addicted. Especially, Because the drama has so many attractive element, They fall in the drama quickly and easily.
The Second reason is due to the "drama reflect reality". Drama is not science fiction film but reflection of real world. So, individuals are sympathetic to situation in the drama. Also, They can get vicarious satisfaction through the drama.

Third world (Extra)
Third world is total definition of developing countries that belong not to any cold blocks(East-West).
The term "Third World" is used since 1960s in China. In sociology, there are 3 worlds in the world. First world is advanced capitalism countries like America and Western-Europe : high econimic develop countries. And Second world is socialism that has conflict with first world. Finally, third world is countries that not conclude in first and second world.
These divide methods of 3 world theory used not since after eruption of socialism in soviet union and eastern-europe.
Today, divide methods of 3 world are usually economic ways. In this methods, Third World is countries that being industrization through gaining capital and skills and ideology of developed countries. In other words, third worlds are developing countries.
As most people know, third world contains poor countries. In global relationship, third world countries usually show inferior features. I think discrimination and poor chance to third world countries are important and remarkable problem in the world. We must care developing countries by various methods.

The character of blood type
Is there a relationship between personality and blood type?
I say , " It is not !!! "
Expert says. "Spirit and personality of the human gene to born ,There is a portion that is formed"
IN MY OPINION, I think >>
In after birth, character is constantly changed, so that , there is no convincing that blood type determine character of person.
Being evaluated separately and conclude tentatively in the blood type people,
It is that making a mistake unscientific.
< Barnum effect >
People Barnum effect that is used in terms of psychology, that there is a tendency to accept the accurate information once the information coming from the outside.
A type of people think I am a timid person.
However, Timid is a universal feature that everyone has!!
I think there is no relationship between personality and blood type, to determine the character by dividing the property of everyone has that there is no meaning.
