[Start Briefing] Opposition to 'transition of male and female engineering' spread... "When discussing the present meaning of women's universities,

Start briefing begins on Thursday, November 14th.

First, the Hankyoreh newspaper.

Protests against co-education are spreading in Dongduk Women's University and Sungshin Women's University. However, before discussing the engineering transition, this article raises the question that it is necessary to make public the reason for the existence of female universities and their present meaning. Let's go to Sungshin Women's University campus in Seoul. When the school decided to recruit foreign students from the international department from next year, there are a lot of department jumpers that students have taken off in opposition. In Dongduk Women's University, protests against classes and sit-ins to occupy buildings are continuing. More than 20 years ago, as the female college enrollment rate was ahead of male students, the role of female colleges decreased and questions began to arise about whether it was unnecessary. But women's college students are worried that the absence of women's colleges will reduce the number of women's studies classes. They say they need a space to speak freely of feminism and a space to be educated as a female leader. On the other hand, some point out why women's universities are needed and that they need to be publicized internally. It is to examine whether it is contributing to expanding educational opportunities for social minorities, including women, or alleviating gender discrimination. Experts advise that it is necessary to reconstruct the present meaning of women's universities by referring to overseas cases.The newspaper also reports that
should also be a space for educating minority human rights sensitivity, not just a place where female students gather.

It's the next Kookmin Ilbo.

There is a huge Korean food craze these days. Perhaps that's why K-food imitations are emerging overseas. The name is also Korean ramen, Gangnam chicken, so I'll take a look. Korean is written on the bag and the model is New Jeans. At first glance, it looks like a Korean ramen commercial. But it's Indonesian ramen. There has also been a recent controversy over intellectual property infringement. There is room for local consumers to see it and mistake it for Korean products. Ramen, which is popular worldwide, is being targeted. It was also controversial that a Japanese company that developed instant ramen for the first time in the world copied Korean ramen. It's not just ramen. Overseas products named after Korea, such as Busan Chicken Wing, Gangnam Chicken, and Jeju Chocolate Milk, are sold throughout Asia. Analysts say it seems to be trying to jump on the K-food craze. Meanwhile, in some countries, Korean products have also been the target of import regulations. The domestic industry is concerned about the risk of deteriorating the brand image that Korean companies have painstakingly accumulated.

Let's look at the Chosun Ilbo article.

In an era when a 12-kg batch of bottled water is delivered comfortably to the door, many people order water instead of renting a water purifier. It tells us that the domestic bottled water market has doubled in five years. Competition among companies is also intensifying. It is the free delivery of e-commerce and the same-day delivery service of large supermarkets that have sparked the fire. There are also e-commerce companies that operate separate distribution centers for bottled water. Mineral water sales are increasing every year as competition between e-commerce intensifies, even though demand is difficult to increase suddenly because no one lives without drinking water. Mineral water sales have increased rapidly every year, and this year's forecast is 3.17 trillion won. Excluding large-scale deliveries, this is how much it counts only purchases made by general consumers. As the market grows, food conglomerates are also entering the bottled water business. Some companies are also exporting. It is said that it is targeting China or Southeast Asian markets with low reliability in its water quality.

I looked at the newspaper on the morning of November 14th. Good luck, test takers. This has been the start briefing.
