Blog 4: What is the Relation Between Economy and Globalization? ---HAN JIAYI

 The relationship between economy and globalization is interdependent and mutually reinforcing. Globalization has pushed economic activity beyond national boundaries, bringing resources, goods, services, capital and labour closer together around the world, while rapid economic growth has in turn contributed to the deepening of globalization. Economic globalization has enabled countries to access larger international markets and increase exports, thereby contributing to economic growth. For developing countries, this means more opportunities to expand their economies and raise living standards. In addition, some multinational companies have played an important role in globalization, such as Apple and Google, which not only generate income for their countries, but also create jobs for other countries. Globalization has made the economy more open. For example, we can now buy goods from all over the world. Foreign foods and drinks, such as New Zealand's milk powder, Korean kimchi, and ...

blog 3: What is the relation between politics and globalization?---HAN JIAYI

  Globalization has made the world smaller and nations more connected, and politics has played a big part in it. Globalization has made countries more dependent on one another, and many problems require political cooperation to solve. For example, climate change, epidemics and international trade cannot be dealt with alone and need to be discussed and decided together. Agreements like the Paris Agreement are the fruit of countries' collective efforts to protect the planet in the context of globalization. Globalization has also complicated politics. Some countries, for example, feel that globalization threatens their own interests. They argue that too many international rules could weaken their sovereignty and prevent them from formulating policies exactly as they wish. Just as some people in the class don't want to be bound by collective rules, some countries want to be freer. Brexit is an example of how they felt the EU's rules were limiting their own development, so they ...

Blog 2: What is the relation between culture and globalization?---HAN JIAYI

 The relationship between culture and globalization is complex and multi-layered. In the process of globalization, culture is both an object of dissemination and an important factor in promoting globalization. The relationship between them can be summed up in terms of "mutilation" and "conflict". First, globalization has facilitated the spread and integration of culture. With the rapid development of transportation and communication technology, the distance between people has been greatly shortened, and contact and communication between different cultures have become more frequent. For example, cultural forms such as Hollywood movies in the U.S., K-pop in Korea, and traditional Chinese cuisine have had a global impact beyond national and regional boundaries through media such as movies, music, and literature. This exchange not only makes it easier for people to understand each other, but also allows different cultural elements to blend into each other and create new...

What is Globalization? ---HAN JIAYI

  I think globalization is the process of the world becoming more and more "connected". In the past, people from different countries may not know what each other is doing for the rest of their lives, but now, through trade, technology, and cultural exchanges, we can easily understand and reach things around the world. For example, in our daily lives, many goods are the result of globalization. Cell phones may be designed in the United States, but parts are made in China and finally assembled in Vietnam; fruits sold in supermarkets may come from South America; and even clothes we wear may be made in Southeast Asia. That is one of the hallmarks of globalization — that different countries work together to move resources and technology. In addition, globalization has exposed us to more cultures. The fact that we can watch Hollywood movies at home, listen to Korean pop music, and try Italian pizza makes me think that the world is really small. Although we have different languages ...

Extra credit blog: China and globalization ---HAN JIAYI

  As a student, I feel that China's relationship with globalization is like a two-way street, relying on each other and developing together. As I grew up, the impact of globalization on China was everywhere, and China became an important player and promoter of globalization through its own power. First, globalization has brought great development opportunities to China. For example, many of the electronic products we use every day are due to globalization. I remember my teacher saying that before joining the World Trade Organization (WTO), China's exports of goods were not very large. But after joining, China began to integrate into the international market, and the manufacturing industry became very strong, becoming the "factory of the world." Many parts like Apple's phones are made in China, which not only makes China earn foreign currency, but also gives many people jobs. At the same time, globalization has made me feel how open and diverse the world is. When I...

Extra credit project: Adjusting to Life in Korea--HAN JIAYI

   English classes are a challenge for me. At first, the whole English teaching in the classroom made me a little confused. The teacher's fluent English explanation and the students' active English discussion made me feel the pressure. Because of this, I should actively participate and try to learn to express my point of view in English. Each attempt made me more confident and made me realize that English learning is not just about mastering some vocabulary or grammar, but also about understanding culture and exchanging ideas.   At the same time, I came across Wiki technology for the first time in this class, which was a whole new area of knowledge for me. Understandably, this is an open collaboration tool that allows multiple users to edit content together to share and update knowledge. I started trying to find information on Wikipedia and even got involved in editing some of the entries. The exploration of Wiki technology not only gave me the skills to search and edit i...
