Answer B:
Hi! I am DaeHo Park. My schoolmates call me Jude. I am 20 years old. My homeland is Incheon.
It is the third most populous city in South Korea. I am a junior majoring in Electronic Engineering.
I chose this course because I plan to work for a large transnational company in the near future.
Moreover, I enjoy studying technological advancement. I believe that for a country to prosper, it
should have more technologists developing its resources. This field of study demands analytical
skills. I need to understand a lot of concepts. To aide me with this, I read a lot of books and
other references. Multi-media materials have helped me comprehend some of the theories that
I cannot simply grasp during my professors’ lecture. I still have several semesters to complete
before I could graduate.
