I have been meeting
with Dojun twice a week, in the mornings. For the fourth session, we continued
our discussion about politics, as Dojun was eager to talk about Donald Trump.
We talked about why and how he was popular, and whether or not a Trump-like
politician would do well in Korean politics. Dojun did not think such a
candidate would do well. We then talked about how Korean politics work, such as
the different parties in power right now. There are four currently, with the
center-right New Frontier party ruling currently. Korean politics seem
interesting, and I'd like to try to follow them when I go there to teach. We continued
to go over the interview from the previous session, and eventually finished up
by going over more low-frequency vocabulary words and phrases. For example, we
went over the word "abhorrent", which means something disgusting or
very bad.
