프로젝트 문제 해결 상황 제시

Mr kim, I have some bad news about our project.

A member of my team is in the hospital.

She was on a business trip and got the flu. She will be out of the office for at least a week

We can’t finish the project by the deadline without her

The rest of us are working hard to stay on schedule (일정대로 가다)

However, if you want us to complete the research, we need two more weeks, is that possible?

If you can assign us another person who can take over(담당하다) her par, we might be able to finish on time.

She was working on the phone design

Please let me know what you want us to do

프로젝트 팀원의 불화 해결

I experienced a problem with a coworker a year ago

It started when one coworker wasn’t doing work properly, while most of the team members were working hard for the project. This one woman was being sluggish(부진한, 느릿느릿 움직이는)

She used instant messenger to chat with friends all the time and didn’t perform in time

All members were very irritated(짜증이 난) with her.

I talked to her personally about the matter. But she got very defensive

I had no choice but to tell my team manager about the problem. Surprisingly, he already noticed the situation and told me that he would take care of it.

After that happened, my teammate’s attitude improved amazingly

I was impressed by how my team manager solved the problem and now he’s getting along well with other members.

해외 여행

I love traveling overseas, whenever I can afford to fly overseas, I never hesitate to get a flight ticket.

One of the most memorable overseas trips was travel to JAPAN three years ago

The cherry trees are in full bloom just at the time

I was so excited about my first japan trip with my family which we have longed for.

As we took window seats we could enjoy breathtaking scenic view out the window

It took around one hours to fly to 기타큐슈 city

The city is famous for the hot spring and traditional port named 모지코

What caught my attention was clean street and friendly people

The town was surrounded by mountains and there are lots temple, the flesh air filled the temple

After hour of walking down around the city and we taking pictures, and we spotted a nice restaurant

The dish that I enjoyed there the most was 스시

I want to go back to visit in the future

 

집안일 거들기

Every weekend, I have to do the laundry, do the dishes and also clean the house

That’s because my wife is tired from doing a lot of household chores on weekdays

So when I have spare time, I usually doing to do household chores for her

First, I opened the windows, and I dusted all the furniture in each room, and then I vacuumed the floor and mopped thoroughly.

Once I finished cleaning the room, I threw out the leftovers from dinner into the trash bin outside, and washed the dishes very carefully.

It seemed like an endless job.

Because of this experience, I am really impressed with my wife’s toils and I understand how hard she works for my family

I felt refreshed after cleaning the room.

 

 

공원가기

I usually go to a park with my family on the weekend

It’s good chance to be spend time with my family

Sometimes, we pack 김밥, rolled rice for lunch, or get some snack at local stall

In the park, we can see people doing different activities such as relaxing on the glass or playing badminton

And you can see parents bring their children there to play with, to meet other children and to spend some time

There are also walking trails that weave through these parks. I often see many people pushing their children in strollers as they walk through the trails

I see people simply enjoying themselves with their family because the parks are considered a place for them to relax and have fun.

 

 

조깅하기

When the weather is OK I go jogging in the early morning. I like to jog in the morning because I can feel the fresh air everyday

I usually go to a park near my house for jogging. It’s quite a big park and has a long walking track

I can see many people taking a walk or jogging along the track

I like to listen to my MP3 player while I jog. It takes my mind off the stress and worries

Jogging has many benefits for the body and mind

Jogging is a suitable for staying healthy as well as losing weight

Sometimes I come across my neighbors  while I’m jogging and we smile at each other or have some small talk, running together.

I think jogging is a perfect exercise for me because not only does it help me keep my health, but also it doesn’t cost anything. All I need for jogging is just sneakers

It gets rid of the stress and worriess

 

아이에게 책 읽어주기

I like to read to kids before bedtime

My wife want them asleep by nine o’clock. So I start reading to them at 8:30

We have a special bedtime storybook. It’s a collection of fairy tales from around the world

Their favorite story is JACK and Beanstalk. It’s about a boy who climbs a magical beanstalk and meets a giant.

I read stories to help them calm down and go to sleep. I read in a low, soothing voice. Sometimes I play quiet music in the background as well

They always drift to sleep before the story is over. This is my best time of the day

I feel like it’s a great a way for me to bond with my kids

 

아이에게 책 흥미 유발하기

I am sorry to hear that your son hates reading books, I thought of something that might help

First, Choose books that he will be interested in. does he like a certain animal or animation character?

Look for books about those things. Try to include books with many pictures or clothes, your son can touch them. You can ask him about the pictures in the book

This will help him stay focused.

Second, use different voices for different characters in a story. I started doing this with my kids. And they really like it.

Lastly, reward your son with snack when he finished a book. This will motivate him to read it.

If you do these things, reading will be more fun for him

Good luck and let me know how it goes.

 

독서 취미

I tend to read most of the bestsellers. This is because I want to gain knowledge in many different fields and give me a chance to think

I don’t have any particular book that I can state as my favorite, I recently read “부자사전” written by 허영만. 허영만 is one of the most favorite author, korean well-known writer who has lots bestsellers

It dealt with “rich people” before I read this book, I had bad image of rich person, greedy, selfish…

The book deals with 20 rich persons in korea and from those stories

I found that there are many rich people by their own effort not by their parents

and the key is “self-control” and “endeavor”. And it claims that positive thinking can create life changing result such as increased wealth, health and happiness

I can learn a lesson from other people’s stories

 

스포츠 관람

I watched a basketball game a week ago.

The tennis match was between A and B

Korea team played against japan

So many people were cheering loudly

There were more than 3000 people watching the game

It was such an exciting game.

Everyone was dress in red

My team won the game by a score of 95 세 80

It was close game : 아슬아슬한 경기였다.

It was so fun that I have become a fan of basketball

It was more than my expectation

 

I watched a University basketball game a month ago on a Sunday
with a whole bunch of(많은 수의) my male friends at the Jamshil Stadium.
Yonsei played against Korea and there was a huge crowd at the game.
At first, I felt awkward,
because I wasn't a big fan of basketball and also because so many people were cheering loudly.
I tried to look for a less crowded area to sit,
but before I knew it,
I was up and out of my seat, rooting for the Yonsei team.
Yonsei was in the lead for quite some time, but the game eventually(결국에는) ended in a tie.
It was such an exciting game.
I've become a huge fan of basketball now.

 

요리

I enjoy cooking for my wife and children on Sundays

I feel really great when people make a feast of my dishes

: 사람들이 제 음식을 맛있게 먹으면 기분이 아주 좋습니다.

 

I like to cook all kinds of dishes.
I guess you can say that I like to experiment.
Although I mainly cook Korean dishes,
my husband loves my spaghetti.
My grandmother gave me her special spaghetti sauce recipe when I was little.
It's easy to cook and delicious.
Some of the basic ingredients you need are some ground beef, bell peppers, onion and some minced garlic.
Start cooking the ground beef in a pot with some butter
and then add the onions and other vegetables.
When the vegetables are cooked,
add 2 cans of tomato sauce and a little bit of tomato paste.
You can throw in any of your favorite veggies or seafood.
Let the sauce simmer for a while,
and you're done!

 

 

좋아하는 음악

Singing and listening to music helps me relax.
I enjoy going to singing rooms and karaokes with my friends and colleagues,
but I mostly enjoy singing while driving.
Singing in the car, with all of the windows rolled down,
is a great way to relive stress!
I used to listen to a lot of rap before,
I'm into ballads.
My favorite Korean singers are Kim Gun Mo, Sung Shi Kyung and Suh Moon Tak.
I listen very carefully to the lyrics of ballads
and I think many of their songs are beautiful.
They bring back a lot of my past memories.

출장

Last week, I returned from a business trip to New York.
I went with a group of people,
including my boss to finalize a very important business deal.
We checked into a five-star hotel and went to the hotel Spa.
We were there on a tight schedule,
so we were busy night and day(day and night) with client meetings for the first two days.
Fortunately, things went well and the contracts were signed.
We finally had some time to shop and look around the Big Apple.
One of our clients was kind enough to show us around the city
and even treatedus to a nice dinner.
It was the best business trip ever
and I would love to go again with my family.
Hopefully, I'll then have a chance to look at the nooks and crannies of New York city.
