TOPIC : International Travel South Korea as a Travel Destination Have you ever seen a movie set in a different country and wanted to travel there to learn about their culture? South Korea is a great place to visit, especially for students. A student doesn't need a lot of money to explore the country and it's a great way to see how their hometowns differ from life somewhere else. Foreigner students should travel in South Korea because it is affordable and gives them a chance to experience a different culture. This is the "HOOK" sentence. This sentence style is a QUESTION. This is the first sentence and gets the reader interested in learning more. These are POSITION sentences. These are POSITION sentences. These sentences' style is ARGUMENT. Position sentences introduce or give specific information on the topic to help the reader better understand the writer's position (opinion) This is THESIS statement. It summarizes main idea, people involved, and supporting ideas of the essay. People involved - foreigner students ; Main Idea - should travel in South Korea ; Supporting Ideas - affordable + chance to experience a different culture . To start with, one good reason why foreigners should travel in Korea is because it is affordable. Korea has a number of ways to get around the country, including trains and buses. Firstly, there are many inexpensive trains that can take foreigners to all parts of the country. These trains are economical and have regularly scheduled stops so people can visit many places in a short time. There is also a "bullet train" called the KTX. It is a little more expensive, but for the price is a good deal because it can cross the country at high speed. However, most people like to tour Korea while riding on buses. There are many tourism companies that bring visitors on buses with low fares to special locations all the around the country. The price is low and the service is great. Moreover, you can meet and spend time with many other people. Trains and buses are an inexpensive and fun way to see Korea. This is the TOPIC sentence. It broadly introduces the topic of the paragraph. TOPIC sentence clearly states supporting idea mentioned in the THESIS sentence. This is the FOCUS sentence. It narrows the topic sentence to a specific area. These are SUPPORTING sentences. They give specific information on the supporting idea to help the reader better understand the writer's position (opinion). This is the CONCLUDING sentence. It summarizes the paragraph and establishes a transition to the next SUPPORTING paragraph. Another reason why South Korea is a great destination for foreign students is that it offers new and interesting culture. One Korean culture aspect that is different from other countries is drinking culture. Since South Korea has hierarchical system which means respect for elders and people of higher status is always emphasized, there are special etiquette rules Koreans follow while having a drink. For instance, if Koreans are having a company dinner, juniors have to pour drinks to seniors while holding a bottle with right hand, while slightly holding the wrist or elbow of the right hand with left hand. If senior employee pours drinks to younger workers, same etiquette applies: juniors receive the drink while holding a cup with two hands, or right hand holding a cup while left slightly holds right hand’s wrist. Additionally, younger people have to turn their head to the side when drinking with elders to show respect. So, South Korea is a country with an interesting culture which is fun to learn about and experience. This is the TOPIC sentence. It broadly introduces the topic of the paragraph. TOPIC sentence clearly states supporting idea mentioned in the THESIS sentence. This is the FOCUS sentence. It narrows the topic sentence to a specific area. These are SUPPORTING sentences. They give specific information on the supporting idea to help the reader better understand the writer's position (opinion). This is the CONCLUDING sentence. It summarizes the paragraph. This is a REVIEW sentence. It is a summary of the essay's main point. These are EXPECTATION sentences. Their style is PREDICTION. These sentences offer possible outcomes that should further interest the reader. This is FINAL statement. This sentence asserts the writer's position on the topic in a clear and concise manner. In conclusion, traveling in Korea is a great way for foreigner students to experience a different culture without spending a lot of money. By encouraging students to explore Korea, more young people can discover the history and traditions of the country, sharing what they learn with those in their hometown. Furthermore, traveling by bus through the countryside offers great opportunities to visit temples and famous landmarks while eating traditional food. A trip to Korea will certainly introduce and let students experience unique culture. There is no better way to learn about a different culture than to pack your bags and go traveling.
