I would like to talk about the Han River, which is the biggest river in our country. The reason why I picked this park is that it is one of my favorite places that I visit a lot. The reason I would like to learn the culture there is that the Han River is a symbol of resilience for Koreans. I am referring to our history. About 6 years ago, the Korean War occurred in Seoul. Many Seoul citizens tried to cross the Han River through the bridge because they wanted to escape the danger of the North Korean army. But the army destroyed the bridge very quickly, so many people couldn't cross the river. Many people struggled to swim across the river. It became a symbol of resilience because many people died in the Han River while escaping from the North Korean army. I would like to learn more about this historical and cultural place.
