1. In my second year of university, I had to submit a report on peaceful unification in South Korea, so I wrote a report on the importance of education for peaceful unification in South Korea. I investigated the differences in perceptions of unification between South and North Korea, and wrote problems on the characteristics of individualism in modern society.

2. In the process of writing the report, it was confirmed that various papers mentioned the importance of peaceful unification education. So, when writing the report, I focused on the facts that were not mentioned in the existing papers. I think it is valuable as a writer when discovering something new from the existing one.

1. When i was in high school, I conducted a research with my team on ‘the level of stress and mental health of current high school students. We used Google Form to investigate 300 students on our high school and 200 from other school. The biggest stressors were study and school life, followed by environmental problems, self-problems, family problems and interpersonal relationships. In addition, we conducted a simple psychiatric examination, and about 20% of students answered that they had a problem with more than one of the nine symptoms. Students with a high stress index also had mental health problems. After obtaining these results, we concluded the study by students’ stress and a program linking expert counseling.

2. Before conducting the study, we had already looked at several data on similar topics. We were able to perform a simple psychiatric test by looking for various data, and we were able to proceed with more specific topics. However, I was a high school student at that time, and our study was too shallow. To the question that had to ask the biggest stressor, we made a mistake of adding a multiple choice option, so it was ambiguous to rank the stressors. In addition, it was difficult to accurately compare what it was like for male students and business students because the proportion of the same number of students among the respondents was larger. I think that the professionalism was poor compared to other writers and the group classification was not clearly performed. If I want to maintain my thesis, I think I should evenly recruit students from more diverse environments and investigate through a more detailed questionnaire. Or, I think it will be a way to maintain my thesis by researching detailed groups and writing different papers from others.

1. When I was a freshman in high school, I belonged to a science club, and I wrote a research paper on a new material that easily decomposes in biodegradable plastics-natural environments and does not cause environmental pollution. First of all, the reason why I wrote the research paper with this topic was to think about ways to cope with the environmental problems caused by the rapid increase in plastic usage at that time, and I learned that biodegradable plastics were invented in the process, and I explained what ingredients biodegradable plastics are made of and could be completely decomposed, and I wrote predictions about changes in the environment accordingly.

2. If someone has already written the same topic as the one I selected, I will try to read the paper already written by someone first and think in a different direction than that point of view, rather than changing the topic I chose. So I will show that even with the same topic, there can be articles in different directions.

I have researched about increasing the number of medical school students. There are contents that I researched as follows: 1.Korea has 2.4 doctors per 1,000 people, lower than the OECD average of 3.5. Compared to large cities, there is a shortage of medical human resources in countrysideareas and a shortage of medical human resources in essential departments such as pediatrics and obstetrics/gnecology and

Studies have shown that as the number of doctors increases, medical expenses also increase. The increase in medical expenses rapidly depletes the national health insurance finances, which increases the medical financial burden on the people’s medical finances.

2. My research have value because I can write the reasons of each opinion in a specific way, not abstract. And I can capture what the readers wonder. So the readers of mine can solve their wondering.

1. When I was in high school, I did research on health. It was a topic of whether the order of eating food was important when eating. As a result, the order of eating food when eating rice had a significant effect on the body. When carbohydrates were first consumed and then proteins and vegetables, blood sugar rose sharply, but when protein and vegetables were first consumed and then carbohydrates were consumed, blood sugar rose slowly.

2. If I find out that someone else has written a paper on the same topic in the past, I don't think I'll have a need for my paper. Because I'm not an expert on the subject. I think I need to have expertise in the subject to feel the need for the paper....therefore when I feel confidence with my research, I need to find many materials.

1.I have researched focusing on the impact of social media on mental health, particularly how various platforms influence anxiety and depression among teenagers. This topic is increasingly relevant, given the significant rise in social media usage among adolescents.

To start, I defined the scope of my research by identifying key social media platforms, such as Instagram, Snapchat, and TikTok, and their prevalent use among teenagers. I then reviewed existing literature, which included academic studies, articles, and surveys that examined the correlation between social media engagement and mental health outcomes.

One aspect I investigated was the phenomenon of social comparison, where teenagers often compare their lives to the curated images and posts of their peers, leading to feelings of inadequacy and low self-esteem. I also explored the role of cyberbullying, noting how negative interactions online can exacerbate feelings of anxiety and depression.

Additionally, I analyzed surveys that measured the frequency of social media use and its relationship with reported mental health issues. Many studies indicated that excessive use—especially passive consumption, like scrolling without engagement—was linked to higher levels of anxiety and depressive symptoms.

In my conclusion, I emphasized the importance of promoting healthy social media habits and encouraging open conversations about mental health among teenagers. By synthesizing this information, I aimed to provide a comprehensive overview that could inform parents, educators, and policymakers about the complexities of social media’s impact on youth mental health.

2. If I discovered that others had written on the same topic, I would still find value as a writer by offering a unique perspective or angle. I could contribute fresh insights, incorporate new data, or address gaps in existing research. Additionally, my voice and interpretation can resonate differently with readers, making my work relevant and valuable in the ongoing conversation about the topic.

1. I have investigated simple pros and cons or cause-effects, but I have never conducted any official research. With the recent increase in divorce TV programs, I have wondered how much the divorce rate is on the rise and what is the main cause of divorce. So I researched various data related to divorce. According to the OECD's data, "Society at a glance 2019," Korea ranked 9th among OECD member countries and 1st in Asia. Korea's divorce rate is especially serious when considering the population. In addition, according to Korean national statistics, the divorce rate in Seoul remains at around 30 percent, but the divorce rate in North Jeolla Province, South Gyeongsang Province, and North Gyeongsang Province is over 60 percent. These results mean that the divorce rate in Korea is over 50 percent.

2. There are many papers on divorce at the moment. However, I would like to maintain this topic because I am interested in divorce. To make this topic special, I will deal with the social aspects of divorce. I will deal with how the view toward divorce has changed over time, and the rate of divorce that has been caused by it. I will also deal with the disparities in divorce rates caused by differences in legal proceedings.

1. Recently, I read an article about Han Kang winning a major literary prize, which made me feel incredibly proud as a Korean. Known for her novel The Vegetarian, Han Kang has received international recognition for her unique storytelling and deep themes that explore human nature and suffering. This achievement not only highlights Korean literature on the global stage but also inspires me personally, showing how Korean stories and voices can resonate worldwide. It motivates me to learn more about Korean literature and culture, knowing that it has such a powerful impact internationally.

2. Even if others have already written about my topic, I believe my perspective still adds unique value. Each writer brings a distinct voice that can make even a common topic feel fresh. My work could explore new angles or emphasize different details that resonate uniquely with readers.

1. When I taking a course about debating for middle~high school students, I conducted research about abortion. At the time, we took turns debating both the pros and cons, so I researched both sides of the argument. In the position supporting abortion, I focused on researching the health of the mother, and for anticipated counterarguments, I prepared points regarding respect for the fetus’s life. When I took the opposing stance, I reversed the original arguments and anticipated rebuttals.

2. I think the value lies in compiling the papers that have been written so far. Naturally, there are papers with similar perspectives or topics. However, even just collecting and comparing these works is meaningful. Thus, their value doesn’t only come from new ideas but also from what already exists.

1. When I was taking a class on the introduction to special education, I wrote a short report based on about three resores with the theme of 'How to educate children with communication disabilities as teachers'. Among the report contents, the body-based treatment method called mirror therapy with face-to-face was the most memorable.

2. Although the subject may be the same, I think there will be a completely different content of writing because the content of how to solve the subject and the source used to write the report cannot all be the same. Humans form their own thinking structure with a different background created by one experience. I am sure that even if the topics are the same, a different essay will be come out.

1,I haven’t done formal research, but I looked online for information about healthy eating and losing weight. I lost 60 pounds in six months. During this time, I learned about different diets, exercises, and ways to stay motivated.

2,Even if others have written about similar topics, my story is still valuable. I can share my journey, the challenges I faced, and what worked for me. My experiences can encourage others who are trying to lose weight. Everyone’s story is unique, and my journey can help others find what works for them.

1.When I was in high school, I did a mock conference where the big topic was how to address contemporary societal challenges. My research within that was the association between childhood abuse experiences and adolescent deviant behavior. I conducted my research by referring to other studies and public websites. My conclusion was that imitation, as described by Bandura's social learning theory, has a strong influence on adolescent behavior. I thought that child abuse is a big problem in itself, but if it is not solved properly, it can spread to a bigger social problem, so it needs a lot of attention and education.

2.The unique value I think is how long I've been interested in this research, and I think that love will show if you do research on a problem that you've been interested in for a long time, rather than something you're immediately thinking about. I think you'll be able to show what you've learned from researching something that you've been curious about for a long time, and what you're thinking more deeply about how to do it.

1. Yes, I did some research when I was a freshman in university. The class is linguistics, so the assignment is an essay related to some offensive expression. So we do some researches from different ways: firstly, we searched the data online about how many words are offensive and what kind of words are offensive. And then we conducted a questionnaire online posting on our social medias, everyone had the chance to answer the questions when they click it. So we got about 200 answers' sample, which makes the data convincible. Besides this, we also went to different places to ask passings-by our questions. No matter male or female, elder or young people, we asked different people's opinion towards our questions like:" Do you think 'crippple' is an offensive word?" or "What measures do you think we can take when someone using an offensive word accidentally?" And then we recorded some of their typical answers in the assay.

2. I think I will try to find different perspectives of the paper what I want to do, and try to come up with some innovative ideas, if there's something necessary to be overlapped, I will quote the previous writer's paper if it's useful. Besides these, the data's resources can also be different, different researching methods may show different results, or it will be a supplement ideas to strongly supporting the paper.

1. I have done one type of research for assignment at the University. It was a study on AI untilization education because I have been interested in how AI technology is being intergrated and utilized in education as it continues to advance. Therefore, I could gain a deeper understanding of the ways AI plays a role in school education and realize the various changes it has brought about.

2. Even though there are already lots of research materials on the same topic I want to study, perspectives on the subject can vary depending on the researcher, and research methods and interpretation of results can be different. I believe I can present my independent perspective on the research topic and will make an effort not to be influenced by other studies. Furthermore, I can consider how to conduct an original study of my own by reviewing the existing research on the same topic.

1. I conducted research for a debate lecture on whether euthanasia should be legalized, and I was on the side of agreeing with the topic. During my research, I found statistics showing that 97% of hospice nurses in Belgium believed euthanasia provided patients with a better death compared to natural death. This suggests that the legalization of euthanasia is seen as offering pain relief for students. Additionally, caregivers were shown to experience high levels of distress. Euthanasia remains a sensitive issue, with ongoing debates between supporters and opponents.

2. My value as a writer, even though others may already written on the same topic, comes from my personal experiences. My experience of educated ways to prevent school violence could not be same with other, meaning the perspective I bring will be different. This could provide a broader view when critiquing the solutions offered by the organization. Moreover, the solutions I foucs may differ from others. For example, approaches to addressing school violence could emphasize either active intervention programs or educational lectures, which would create differences in outcomes. While I’ll need to avoid plagiarism, I can use pre-existing papers as guidelines to inform my writing.

1) When I was in high school, I conducted a research on 'the current status of private education implementation by Jeonju citizens and the impact of private education on public education' at the Jeonbuk Youth Conference hosted by the Jeonbuk Office of Education. The data to be used in the research were conducted through face-to-face surveys and interviews targeting the population in teens to fifties, and 60% of the 200 participants said they experienced private education directly or were letting their children take private education. After that, based on the results of this survey, suggestions for strengthening public education and alleviating the burden of private education in the Jeonbuk region were discussed, and a report combining the previous survey results and these suggestions was submitted.

2) When trying to conduct research on a particular topic, it would be rather pleasing to have a previous study dealing with the same topic. Through previous research, major theories, concepts, and references related to the topic can be identified, and based on this, one's own research can be further specified. If an error occurs in the preceding study, additionally, a writer can avoid potential errors that may occur in one's own research by identifying the error in previous study. As a writer, however, what to consider is that it should be differentiated from previous studies dealing with the identical topic. Even on the same topic, new insights are needed in the way they approach it or suggesting the issue. In addition, it is necessary to set specific goals than existing studies and provide additional analysis and interpretation of one's own to maintain the originality of the research.

1. I have never conducted any form of formal research before, but I researched the effect of listening to music on students' studying as a class project in my second year of high school. When I was in high school, many students would listen to music while solving problems, so I wondered if listening to music while studying would be effective for students. After reading several articles and surfing the internet, I found that things like meditative music when students wake up in the morning can help them develop their minds. However, in my research I also found that listening to music while solving problems distracted students from concentrating fully on the problem.

2. If there is already a paper on the same topic as mine, I will still develop the same ideas. I will focus on the differences between that paper and mine when I come across it. I will explain what makes my essay different and why my argument is more effective. As a writer, I will be creative in my writing. I will demonstrate my value of being creative and conveying curiosity and clarity to the reader.

I have never conducted any type of formal research. Recently, I search on internet. Chang Yong Lee, Governor of the Bank of Korea, said that irrational university entrance competition causes serious social problems. Research show the comparison of first-year middle school students, who are known to be less influenced by private education, and their university entrance exam scores. It showed students from the three Gangnam districts get much higher score than expected based on their potential. It means that university entrance exam scores do not reflect their talent and abilities but are just a result of private education. It was also found that students living in provincial areas received university entrance exam scores lower than their potential abilities. These phenomena have make the myth of invincible real estate prices in Seoul, placed a financial burden on households due to abnormal private education spending, and failed to discover talents in provincial areas. Quoting the phrase, 'Talent is everywhere,' he proposed alternative solutions.

2. Even if someone wrote or have a similar topic as mine, I think my ideas can show empirical research.

1. Recently, I read a paper on a qualitative case study on the operation method and participation structure of university classes that elicit student participation. This study conducted a qualitative multiple case study to examine the operation and interaction method of classes that promote student participation in the context of university education. This study collected data through participant observation and interviews over the course of one semester. The results of the study showed that learning through students’ participation in class increases the possibility of learning and that the role of the instructor is important in eliciting students’ participation in class.

2. There must be much previous research in the field I want to study. Because numerous studies have been accumulated in various fields over a long period of time. Unless I am a great person, it is very difficult to come up with something completely novel. Newton said to stand on the shoulders of giants and see the wider world. The important thing is how to make my own creative argument based on existing research. Also, since it is difficult to have perfect research, I can conduct my research in a way that complements the limitations of previous research.

1. I once read a paper on decision-making systems that talked about how the decision-making process takes place in a certain environment. I had been recommended this paper about six months before reading it. It was a very helpful paper for me as I am at a crossroads in many decision as an adult.

2. Even if other people have already written about the same topic, I can explain it from a different perspective based on my own experiences and thoughts, and I can make it feel new to others. So I think the value of my writing is that even if I cover the same topic, I can deliver something new and meaningful through my own expression.

1. I have never conducted any form of formal research, but when I was a third-year high school student, I did an assignment on the problematic nature of entrance examination education in South Korea as part of my language and media course. I wrote a paper on the problems of the entrance exam system in Korea that relies on the hierarchy of universities, and that it can lead to educational inequality by making students overly dependent on private education.

2. Even if someone else wrote about the same topic as me, each person has a different approach and perspective. For example, the writer can draw positive or negative conclusions about the research. Also, the writer can maintain the author's perspective and keep its value as a writer based on thorough and well-founded research.

1. I have never conducted any type of formal research, but in the early days of the COVID-19 period, I did some research on when, where, and how COVID-19 occurred and what impact it will have on society in the future. I'm not usually interested in current affairs, but as social media was filled with the virus disaster called COVID-19, I felt like fear was approaching. We checked what measures were being taken in Wuhan, China, the initial source, and observed what policies were established in other countries where symptomatic cases appeared, and then took the time to predict in advance what policies would be established in Korea.

2. If other people write papers on the topic of my 1 and what measures to take in Korea to prevent COVID-19, and I want to maintain my thoughts, I think my value as a writer is still there. This is because my conclusion may also be the answer even in situations where the results are not clear. However, I think my value as a writer will improve if I acknowledge the consequences for others.

1. In my high school Korean geography course, I wrote a report on the topic of “Current Status of Libraries in Korea”. I used the paper “Regional Disparities in Access to Public Libraries in Seoul” and the “2019 Public Library Construction and Operation Manual” to write my report. The report concluded that there was a significant difference in accessibility of libraries by neighborhoods in Seoul, and that the reason for this was that libraries were not built in consideration of the “ settled population".

2. Even on the same research topic, the Author can provide new insights based on the author's experience or perspective. Or the author can contrast existing research and draw different conclusions. In this way, I think even the same topic can have value as a writer.

1. When I was in high school second grade in social culture class, I did a survey to students who are in the same grade with me. The survey was a group work and the purpose of this activity was to explore social and cultural phenomena. Our topic was “Correlation between a firm's fair trade CSR and its image”. There were a number of research methods, and we decided to create a questionnaire to collect a large amount of results quickly and quantify the results. After the survey, we analyzed the results of the questionnaire and presented statistical processing as a graph.

In fact, I rarely do formal research and I just search and surf materials online more often. In the university teaching class, I did a group presentation. Our presentation topic was “Reducing the number of teachers”. While preparing for the presentation, I searched online for the policy of the Ministry of Education in Korea about gradually reducing the number of teachers in the future. And I surfed the pros and cons of it.

2. If I write a same topic and content paper as previous papers, it will be plagiarism. Therefore, I have to be careful not to write the same content as past paper. If I want to keep the topic even if it overlaps with others, I will choose between the two.

First, if I have the same opinion as the previous paper, I will try to write a paper using the most up-to-date data and new research. I will try to find data that do not overlap with the research or data that have already been published in previous paper. Then, it is not plagiarism because it is the same topic but new content, and people will also be interested in my opinion.

Secondly, if I have a disagreement with the previous paper, I will try to deal with the opposite content that is different from the previous paper. Then, people will be able to look at the same topic with a new perspective.

1. If you have done any form of research, briefly explain what the topic/task was about. If you never conducted any form of formal research, briefly explain the task or topic of an online surfing or searching you did on your own.

2. Let's imagine that in the process of doing research, you realize other people have already written a paper on the same topic as yours in the past? But, you still want to keep it. What do you think is your value as a writer?

P.S. There is no word limit for answering the discussion questions!

1. I wrote a research paper about modern art, focusing on the topic of what should be determined as art. To support my arguments, I used online archives to find relevant examples and referenced academic papers extensively.

For the paper, I used Damien Hirst as a key example, analyzing how his works, such as the shark in formaldehyde and the diamond-encrusted skull, challenge conventional definitions of art. My research discussed the role of audience interpretation, institutional validation, and market value in determining what qualifies as art, emphasizing how modern art pushes beyond technical skill into the realms of conceptual meaning and spectacle.

2. I would present a new perspective on what qualifies as art, developing my arguments in a logical and coherent manner. I also incorporate diverse statistics and data to provide evidences that strengthen my arguments.

Through careful analysis and interpretation, I connect theoretical insights with real-world examples, ensuring that each argument builds on the previous one. By combining academic references with archival materials, I create a well-rounded discussion that challenges conventional definitions. This approach ensures that my paper offers both depth and originality while remaining grounded in evidence-based reasoning.
