We think the sounds in movies are recorded at the shooting site. Unlike our thoughts, everyday sounds in a movie are made by a Foley artist in post-production after filming. For example, sounds like a lid opening, glass breaking, or footsteps are made by Foley artists. These people create sounds to match the scene and increase the dramatic effect. This name came from Jack Foley who was famous for his legendary sound effects in Hollywood movies in the 1930s. They make about one thousand sounds for a commercial movie. Role A Foley artist creates all sounds except lines and music in a movie. Th

If foreigners ask Korean people what the saddest moment in Korean history is, they will all say the Japanese colonial era. Koreans were shorn of their freedom by Japan in 1910 and held hostage until 1945. Japan brutally ruled Korea during this period, and Korean people repeatedly tried to reclaim their nation. There were many attempts to overthrow the Japanese occupiers, but the most popular one was the ‘March 1 Movement’ which started March 1, 1919. The March 1 Movement played an important role in the efforts for the independence of Korea. As the result, March 1 is one of the most popular ho

Meanwhile, evading responsibilities of the economic crisis, two presidents in Venezuela are making political instability. On January 11, 2019, Nicolas Maduro was reelected as the 61st president.

At the beginning of every university semester, many students have difficulties registering for classes because most Korean Universities use a registering system that has a first-come first-served basis. Therefore, students who gained spots in popular classes try to sell their spots to students who failed to register. Some sellers do this intentionally to make money. This happens every semester and many people bring up some problems in these cases. At the enrollment period, students are active in KMU’s social communities trying to buy and sell spots in classes. Students who want to sell their
