Topic 1) Korean expressions that AI can't replace
Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) is an artificial embodiment of human intelligence in machines. With the spread of AI, we can access AI-related technologies in our daily lives. When you wake up in the morning and say, "Genie, tell me the weather today!" Genie guides you to the today's weather, fine dust index, and clothes that matches with. With the development of Al technology, we can enjoy convenience in our daily lives, but there are also voices of concern that AI, which develops rapidly with technologies such as deep learning, will replace human roles.
AI is even deeply embedded in studying Korean. If you put your cell phone's camera on top of words you don't know, you'll see a screen translated into your mother tongue language, and Chat GPT answers in Korean without getting annoyed no matter how many questions you ask. Despite all these conveniences, we come to the classroom and study Korean, facing our teacher. We will share the reasons and passion for one’s love for Korean, which AI cannot replace, and the sincerity of Korean that Chat GPT cannot convey at the speaking competition.
Example: My passion for Korean that AI cannot replace, My love for Korean that Chat GPT cannot convey, Korean expressions that cannot be translated into a translator
Topic 2) The secret of living in Korea
Living in a foreign country is a special and fun experience for anyone. When I first arrived in Korea after leaving my hometown, I felt unfamiliar while watching people who were always busy and the lights that do not turned off at night. However, as I experienced various Korean culture with affectionate and passionate Koreans, I became a "Korean foreigner," who has been living in Korea for numerous years.
