Counterfeit Products

A few years ago, I downloaded counterfeit music and movies but I don't download music and movies now. (Sometimes I watch movies and  dramas on the video site and  I only watch Korea program, because I can't watch Korea program in Canada.) The reason why many people prefer counterfeit products is that something is free or cheap. Also I think counterfeit music and video can't compare to real things because there are really same, we can't compare.

I saw counterfeit bags but I think products like bags, clothes, and others can compare to real products by expert. As well I think counterfeit products aren't good because the experts spent time for making this, but counterfeit products are copy at their factory.

When I was middle school student I thought counterfeit isn't bad, however this is illegal to make counterfeit products. Also we don't buy counterfeit products, if we continuously buy counterfeit products , it must not disappear.

Money

My country is Republic of Korea(South Korea) so we have two separate currencies, because we became divided, but both called 'won'. Korea cash is 4 paper money and 4 coins. First picture used from 1983-2002, second picture is using since 2006 but last paper money that is yellow color is using since 2009. Now we can't see first picture's paper money. 1000 won is about 1 dollar, 5000 won is about 5 dollar, 10000 won is about 10 dollar, and 50000 won is about 50 dollar.

A monetary unit of Korea's coins is half a dozen coins but we don't use first and second coin so we are using only third to last coin. Third coin changed since 2006 but we can use both now. 10 won is about 1 cent, 50 won is about 5 cent, 100 won is about 10 cent, and 500 won is 50 cent.
 









I think almost Korean use debit card, all debit cards of Korea are visa debit, master debit and others, but some old people use credit card and cash. Also we usually don't pay maintain for bank account. If I compare the prices of specific items such as a cup of coffee, gas, food in Canada and my country, for example at Starbucks a caramel macchiato of grande size is 6100 won that is about 6.10 dollar, in Canada this is 4.99 dollar. Gasoline price is at 1700 won about 1.70dollar per liter, Canada is at 95 cents per liter. Food price is similar to Korea.

City life vs Country life

I want city life because city is comfortable. First, City close to market, department store, school, hospital, theater and others. Also many parents moved country to city because education of their kids. I think one of best reasons is education in city life. City have a lot of academies so many children go to academy. I also went to academies after school is done. I learned art, piano, English, computer, math, and so on if I live in country, I hard to learn. Recently country have academies but it isn't variety just regular academies. Therefor many parents move to city for education. Finally, Many people watch movie and play but people of country hard to watch it. City near to places of theater so city people easy go to there. In conclusion, I like staying city.
