Kim Yu-na's ice show

As we all know, ice skating is a very beautiful sport. Kim Yu-na is queen of ice skating in South Korea. She won the gold medal in the Winter Olympics 2010 in Vancouver, Canada. She had her own ice skating show in South Korea. The title of the show is called “2010 All That Skate Summer.” During the ice show, she performed with her special guest and who is her idol, five times champion, Michelle Kwan.

I really like her since I watched her performance in the Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada. Her performance is really great, even though, she fell during her performance in the Winter Olympics. She still had a very great performance. When she is skating, I think she really enjoys it and makes everyone who watches her thrilled by her performance. She also has a fan club all around the world.

South Korea green growth to hurt environment

The government of South Korea spends 22.2 trillion won or about 19.68 US dollar to build dam, golf course and to maintain it. It takes four major rivers to do all of that and it increases the quality of the rivers and it prevents flooding. It harms the species that lives around the water especially the water birds. Almost 50 kinds of birds are affected by pollution in water. The species will lose their habitant. A South Korean environment ministry official said that the government will do whatever they can to prevent this harmful project for wildlife.

In my opinion, it might be good to build dam and golf course for their people but it should not destroy the environment such as water birds and many species that live in the water or nearby.

South Korea airport named best in world

Incheon International Airport in South Korea is the best airport in the world, according to the British Skytrax. At Incheon airport, passengers who take the economy class cajavascript:void(0)n get five-star facilities. For example, they can watch movie on the big screen, free internet and take a shower free. Mina Choi, international relations director, Incheon International Airport Corporation, said that they were offering a day spa, nail spa and massages at a normal price. It is a first time that South Korea won the best air port in Asia instead of Singapore and Hong Kong.

Incheon is the eight busiest airports in Asia that has 30 million passengers a year but does not seem busy because the connection time is only 45 minutes.

South Korea is expanding Incheon airport to more passengers and cargo by 2015.

In my opinion, it is good for people who have to wait for a connecting flight for a long time to have something to do or relax. Incheon airport tries to provide convenient things to their customers to be the best airport in Asia.

Samsung is selling five new mini- laptops, which provide stronger processing power, wireless Internet capability and longer battery life. To compare with the old function of the Samsung laptop, this new one has more conveniences for the customer. In my opinion, I never use a Samsung laptop before but I think it will be a good choice for the customer to buy this laptop. I believe that Samsung choose the best quality for their customer. It is a small laptop and easy to carry around.
