THESE DAYS, it seems as if everyone does the same activities during their leisure time: visiting matjibs with good food and chatting with their friends. This assimilation of hobbies has occurred especially among those who are in their twenties and thirties. Then, what is this matjib trend about? What is the significance of a place to be classified as a matjib, and why do people suddenly crave for good food? What are the connotations in the emergence of such a trend?

ACCORDING TO the Merriam-Webster dictionary, vocabulary can be most commonly perceived as a collection of terms employed by a language, group, individual, work or in a field of knowledge. This definition implies that the primary purpose of vocabulary is to communicate denotations of knowledge, ideas, and emotions as well as implied meanings of concepts when they are applied to various specific contexts. Going further though, vocabulary is an expression medium that influences our access to potential knowledge; the vocabulary we use unconsciously shapes our current knowledge and affects what we

Smile and hold him, that lonely, forgotten figure, just like he used to do when you were younger. Because he is still waiting for that day when you’d say, once again, "I will always love you." Because he will soon drift away from your arms.Dad.I suddenly realize that you are not going to be here anymore, that I’m finally going to be alone. Independent, courageous, and ambitious. But why is it that the world suddenly seem so scary and intimidating? Why is it that the deep corner of my heart feels pain that overflows and wells up in my eyes? You seem to have a superpower you know, a superpower

WONDERING WHAT to do for your winter break? Surely there is nothing more pleasant and satisfying than snuggling into your warm blanket with an awesome book in your hands. Reading has always been one of those activities that are right at the top of our to-do lists but never quite done, partly because there are too many books to choose from. The Yonsei Annals has thus here prepared a list of book recommendations from fellow Yonseians. Check this out and who knows, this winter might be more inky and fun than you thought it would be!

PEOPLE ALWAYS chat together. They always eat meals together, take classes together, and drink together, and hang around together — all of which are seemingly benign acts. Yet the key word here is always , which denotes a constant invariability of a state (regardless of time and space) and gives an unexpected, dark twist to the situation. These days, it is not common to find someone who enjoys being alone — whether in a classroom, cafeteria, or dormitory rooms, individuals prefer to remain amidst groups of people, to mingle and interact with others rather than separating themselves

UPON THE green hills under the sheer blue sky shimmer thousands of spinning pinwheels that awaken to the softest breeze a morning could offer. As a giant whale of summer wind playfully roams around the grass, a sweet-scented music twirling and dancing in the air makes everything more beautiful, more immortal—undisturbed by the inundating busyness, this space that cradles peace quietly breathes a life of its own. Yet, not everyone realizes that clipped behind all these quiet details are humble hearts, bleeding and trembling for hope and reconciliation. From a tragedy it springsIt is like

It is a gift, the presence this place has. It is where ribbons of laughter unfurl and ring like silver bells. It is where dreaming eyes glisten as they gaze into the Thames River for the lost treasure of hope. It is where the sweetest wild flowers of happiness can be found. It is London. So many people, and equally many shadows to play with. Don't be tricked though. There is still much room for life in London. Red buses are everywhere, and so are green olive trees. Hence the road to venture out never ends. The sky's translucent blueness blends into a tender mauve and white as th

IN THE dim, deep stillness of the *Hangaram* Art Museum's exhibition hall, each of Alphonse Mucha’s 325 art pieces exudes an air of grace and luxury. Within the golden frames stand godly figures of women, cast in exquisite molds whose statuesque poses suggest that they have been momentarily frozen in splashes of colors. The women are too beautiful and fantastical to be real; the perfect smoothness of their skins, along with the cascading, thick hair and the flowing robes, renders deluxe delicacy, while remarkably sophisticated details of the ornaments and the lush flowers in the background cr
