I think... Korea is a civilization, because
Government: The Government is not the only one person; there are many people who have jobs for government. In Korea, there is a president and the Prim ministers for each city. Even though their jobs are different, main point is to lead the people.
Religion: Korea has several religions which are Buddhism and Christianity. Korean people are very religious so everywhere you go in Korea, you will see thousands of churches and temples! By having many kinds of religion, Korea celebrates Chinese New Year, Christmas and others.
Stable Food Supply: In Korea, now it's very different to gather/earn the foods compare to the old days. In old days, many of Korean were farmers, but now there is only few of Korean are farmers. Then, how do we have stable food supply? Not always, but Korea obtains (trading) foods from the other countries, but good thing is by trading foods from other countries makes good relationship.
The Arts: Until these days, In Korea you will see traditional work of art because Korean people have very strong belief that more traditional things in Korea, more foreigners will visit Korea, so in each year many foreigners visit Korea and learn about Korea. For examples: drama, music, movies and dance.
Social Structure: In Korea, there are many different levels depending on the jobs. If we imagine there is like a pyramid of social structure, the top part would be president and below that, there would be a prime minister and then the police, then doctors and then the judges and then normal people.
Writing: In old days in Korea, Koreans used Chinese, but the king called Se Jong created Han Gle(HoonMinjeongEum). This is why Han Gle looks similar to Chinese. Until today, we use Han Gle for writing and speaking. Han Gle was chosen as most creative language in the world. In Han Gle, there are many words often feelings, that aren't in other languages.
Technology: In Korea during the winter time, people were sick of cold so Ondol was invented. Ondol is special stones that are used to make room warm. If Korean hasn’t invented this invention, Koreans would have hard time during the winter time, so Ondol was chosen as top10 important invention of Korea.

My vacation with my sister
I enjoyed my winter vacation so much! Today I'm going to tell you about the best memorable part of my winter vacation.
Even though my sister went back to England again, it was a great chance to spend time with my family. It was so special because my cousin came to Malaysia to study Malaysian. Also my sister came back to Malaysia from England, so I had to spend my vacation with huge family. In December 24 just 1 day before Christmas, my sister, Yu Jin came back to Malaysia. I was so glad! It was the first time to see her since 3 months!
I felt sad because I knew that she is just here for 3 weeks. When she just has drive to our house, Yu Jin and I were so glad so suddenly we hug together with tears. The funny thing is that we couldn't really play together during the vacation; she was too tired because of the time difference. It took her one week to adapt the time difference. When my sister was okay with it, she had to do her homework!!!
When there was only 1 days left until she leaves, I told her "Next time, finish your homework before you come to Malaysia." when Yu Jin was about to leave our house to go to airport, only my father and my mother could go to airport with her because our car is too small for 7 people. When Yu Jin opened the door to leave our house, we hug together.
This is the end of my story. Actually, I went to many places but It wasn't special than moments with my sister. I'm still waiting until Yu Jin to comes to Malaysia again!
