1. You indicated in the survey that you go to a park. Where is it located? Can you describe a park you frequently visit?
I often go to Ilsan Lake Park that is near 정발산 station, and it takes about 20 min by subway
It's not that close to my house but at my father's store that is a bike rental shop, it's just over the road. the name of park says all things about the park! the center of the park there is a biiiig lake! and people can walk or ride a bike along the shore of the lake.
the bike road is quite good, so many people who like to enjoy riding a cycle visit there a lot. And Peopel tend to go there for a picnic!! there are a lot of beautiful trees and flowers throughout the park and in the corner of the park there is a small basket ball coat and gate ball field where people can enjoy sports!
and around the park, there are some fancy retaurants and romantic cafes. so many couples visit there for a date. so I used to do that at there as well.
and it has small botanical garden, zoo, and playground, so I think it's quite good place for family who has some kids.
You know, so in Spring and Fall, there are tons of people who ride a cycle, walk and go on a picnic. some people play some sports, such as basket ball, badminton and catch ball.
Around the park, there are some fancy restaurants and romantic cafes. And in the park, there are cycling and jogging tracks. It is very convenience for walking or riding cycle. There are many beautiful trees and flowers throughout the park and in the corner of the park there is a small basket ball coat and gate ball field where people can enjoy sports.
2. What activities do you normally do at the park? Also, what kind of things do people such as the young and the old do at the park? Tell me in detail.
Hummm.. I usually ride a bike a lot there, 'cause father runs a bike rental shop around the park. so everytime I go there, I'm with my bike! and sometimes I bring my laptop or some books so I do my works or read a book! and guess what? when I go there with my friends, we order some delivery foods, like Chienese food, Fried Chicken, or Pizza! Can you believe it's possible?! at park we can order some delivery foods!!! it's one of the most amazing thing!!
and Young people usually tend to visit there for a date or picnic! so some people just take a rest on the lawn, and another people enjoy some sports like inline skating, skateboarding or riding a cycle.
and the olds normally tent to visit there for some exercise, picnic, and hanging out! they usually take a rest under trees and play Korean chess, Baduk, in Japanese Go. and they take a slow walk along the lake, or play gate ball that is a sport for the elderly.
so there are lots of activities that people of all ages can enjoy!! so there are always crowded.
In the park, I can do many activities. As other people do, I walk, jog and play some sports.
But among them, my favorite activity is riding a cycle. So I usually ride a cycle there.
Generally, the elderly normally take a slow walk along paths and relax under trees to Korean chess or Baduk. On the other hands young people like to enjoy physical activities such as inline skating, skateboarding or riding a cycle.
And families or couples usually go there for a picnic. So they are eating a packed lunch at Park.
3. I’d like to know about your most memorable experience at the park. Why was it so memorable? Tell me about all the things that happened at the park from beginning to end.
humm... most memorable experiecne at the park... just a memory comes up now, about a year ago, I dated my ex, and my parents didn't know that. and we just had the night together, and after the day, we had a date in Ilsan Lake Park. as you know, my father runs a bike rental shop but I couldn't go there with my ex, cause I just told them, I'd sleep at my friend's home. and you know, some owners of bike rental shop knew who I am, so I should find a store where they don't know me. we kinda had a secret date at there!! and it was first time I rode a bike for two person. so I wasn't good, so my ex was nagging me! like "you told me you're quite good at riding a bike! hey! lier!!" but we had a lot of fun at that time. and finally we made it the secrect date successfully! but at that I just made up my mind, I won't lie to my parents! 'cause it's quite bothering me!! haha
My most memorable experience at the park was having an accident with a pedestrian. It is very terrible memory to me.
About 3 years ago, I rode my cycle in the park. At that time there were a few people. So I raised my tempo. I took my eyes off the road for a moment. Unfortunately, during the short time, I crushed a pedestrian. So I took her to hospital right now.
Fortunately, she had only light contusion. I apologized her, so I really sorry to her.
After that day, when I ride a cycle, I have to keep eyes forward.
4. You indicated in the survey that you go to parks. What is the purpose of going to parks? Why do you like to go there?
I think the reason I go to parks is... just to take a rest. I don't like doing some physical activities that much. so everytime I go to a park I bring some books or my laptop with a mat! so on the lawn, I just can do everything, taking a nap, reading books and just doing something with smartphone~ I just like the time. you know one of Korean culture is doing everything quickly!! but in parks I don't need to do that!! I can enjoy my slow life at there~ that's why I love to go to parks!
and sometimes I bring my guitar there, and parctice it! with friends or alone. and recently in a parkd I tried to compose a hilarious song about spring, it sucks but during the composition, I had a lot of fun!!!
See! that's how I enjoy this spring in parks~
and those are the purpose of going to parks for me! :)
I usually go to the park, because I like that place and I like do activities that I can do at there.
My favorite is riding a cycle, so I usually go there for cycling. And there are so many beautiful trees and flowers throughout the park. During the riding a cycle, I can see beautiful scenery and I feel energetic and lively. So I like that place,
5. When did you recently go to the park? With whom did you go to the park? What things did you do at the park? Tell me all about the recent experience in as much as you can
You know, in Korea it's Spring now! the weather is... so fantastic!!!! in this weather, I couldn't help but go out!! for anything!! so recently the weather was... soooo....goood! so I just went to Ilsan Lake Park after my English Class! and actually I had something to do, so I just brought my bike to the park! and was looking for some good place to do my works! and I settled down a spot, and did my things! with cool breeze, warm sunlight, and great music!! it was wonderful!!
you know, my guitar is in my father's shop so after the work I went to the park again with my guitar!!
in fantastic weather, I couldn't help compose a song about this spring! so I tried to do that. and the result sucked!!! but it was so hilarious!! maybe if some people saw me, they'd think I'm a crazy guy!!
at that time I felt like I'm in Spain again! at there I really liked to go to a Park to take a rest!! on the lawn~~
anyway at that time I just made up my mind, I should go there often to take a rest!
so I'm trying to go and bring my friends there!! to hang out! to be relaxed!! as mush as I can.
Recently, I went to the park with my friend last weekend. At there, first, we enjoyed riding a cycle, because I and my friend like the park whose cycle track is very convenient and scenery is very beautiful. So during the riding a cycle, we could see the beautiful scenery and feel energetic and lively. And then we took e a rest under the tree. After that we have light dinner at eatery, and then we have a drink at small bar.
