W1. (extra) Why are you taking this class?

 I took a basic social studies class last semester. Sociology is a study that can understand and learn about the atmosphere and phenomena of society now. People are so used to it that they often forget why it's happening to society. But I think we need to know why to understand this social structure. I think sociology is actually deeply related to studies related to other social phenomena. Things like politics and humanities, for example. The reason why I decided to take this class is that I want to understand social phenomena better.

Project one 'Interaction observation'

  Situation 1.  In 2020, many people reveal their own desire and dark side in front stages. Because of covid – 19, in new normal life ,they are tired to be gentle.

Extra credit describing blog about assignment.  Project 2 observed people's behavior and timing of visits in public places. Clearly, people at dorm restaurants were a little different from cafes. The number of people visiting the dormitory restaurant was very different depending on the time and day they visited. So there is break time and during that time there is time to reorganize the restaurant. When visiting a restaurant, the method of selecting seats was very different depending on the person who came alone and the person who was with the group. People who came alone usually enjoyed eating sitting alone in a window seat, but those who were with the group sat at the middle table and talked to them for fun.

Imagine you and your family are throwing a party for your family friends in your house. What are the stages?

 I think the stage is 'back'.  In this situation, I'll only invite the friendly friends in my house, so, the people who in the party going to be most close friend to me. With close friends we talk about anything, like hating person, talking about crush in somebody or even the physiological phenomenon. And the home. Home is one of the most comfortable place that I can relax my body and my mind. And also, nobody can hear what we say. This is why people love to be at home.   However, we can't talk about this I the public places that everyone can hear this. Because it is embarrassing.  In this case(house party with family and friends), we can do anything that we didn't do outside. So, I think the stage is 'back'.
