It snowed a lot last weekend.

It snowed a lot last weekend. The next day many schools and kindergartens were closed so I didn't go to work. It is rare to see lots of snow in Jeju city except county sides in the winter.This winter it snowed a lot and the temparature fell to four degrees below zero so the water pipes of lots of houeses were frozen and even some areas had no power. The water pipe in my house has also frozen so my family and I had a hard time for a few days. Fortunately last Monday afternoon we could use the water. If it didn't start working again, We would have gone to my parents' house. The next day in the morning, on the way to work I was worried about the slippery road. But the snow has quickly melted by the warm weather. Now it is raining, instead of the snow!

Korean chess called Janggi is a traditional game of the Orient. It is played by dividing into 2 teams, Chong and Hong. The side that captures the General of the opposing team first will win the game.

Jeju Dolharbang Park, '제주 돌하르방 공원'

I went to a nice park called 'Dolharbang Park' and we enjoyed seeing various shapes of Dolharbangs. Jejudo is the largest island made by volcanic activity in Korea so we can easily see basalt. Dolharbangs are also made of the basalt. 'Dol' means 'Stone' and 'Harbang' means 'Grandfather'. The stones all look like grandfathers so we call them 'Dolharbang'. According to an old document, 260 years ago, the word of Dolharbang was appeared and it was known as patron saints of each village in Jeju. These days, some Dolharbangs are made in various poses so they are so cute. I posted my video of Dolharbangs on Youtube. Have a nice day!**** 저는 돌하르방공원에 가서 여러 모양의 돌하르방들을 구경했어요. 제주도는 한국에서 화산활동으로 만들어진 가장 큰 섬이에요. 그래서 쉽게 현무암을 볼 수 있어요. 돌하르방 또한 현무암으로 만들어졌어요. ‘돌’은 ‘Stone'이고 '하르방'은 'Grandfather'를 의미해요. 그 돌하르방 모두 할아버지를 닮아서 ‘돌하르방’이라고 불러요. 문헌에 따르면 260년 전에 ‘돌하르방’이란 말이 기록되어 있는데, 제주에서 각 마을의 수호신으로 알려져 있어요. 요즘에는 돌하르방들이 다양한 모습으로 만들어져서 무척 귀여워요. 제...
