The export of Korean dramas sparked off a palpable craze for Korean cultural commodities in early 2000. This popular cultural phenomenon known as the Korean Wave or Hallyu has seen a surge in interest in Korean culture especially through the study of the Korean language and understanding of the culture through travel. In this essay I would like to shed light on how…

For my abstinence experience, I decided to give up Korean media for nine weeks. This type of media included YouTube videos involving reality shows of different popular Korean figures, Korean shows, and news involving Korean popular culture. I chose this habit because it has been an intricate part of my life for a few years now.

by an external force. Resulting in the exchange of kinetic energy and potential energy between the mass and spring of the system. An example of interference in the mechanical vibration, which are wind (done with the plane, building bridges), ocean waves (done with the ship in the sea), and ground motion because of the earthquake (action and building structures). The general two kinds of vibration are free…

When a lens produces an image, the size of it corresponds to the focal length of the lens. The smaller the focal length, the smaller the image and the longer the focal length the bigger the image. How bright an image may be solely depends on the amount of light collected by the objective lens. How much light can be collected corresponds to the area of the objective lens. So the bigger the objective lens, the more light can be collected. If you want to increase the light gathering power by 4, you…

The Wave is all about types, and Robert Billings is no exception; he's the school loser, to use the novel's rather cruel terminology. Other students in the school are afraid to ruin their own image by hanging out with the “class creep”. Ben Ross thinks that part of his problem is living in the shadow of his ultra-popular brother, who used to attend Gordon High School.
