countries or towns is not good to people because of loosing old friends.    선생님 말씀대로 반대로 해서 그 이유를 하나는 town을 옮기며 새로운 친구를 사귈 수 잇다, 하나는 의미확장으로 old friends을 잃는 게 아니라 채 countries 을 옮길 경우 national identity를 잃기 쉽다   이렇게 하면 두 이유가 서로 모순인가요?      It has been generally argued that moving to different countries or towns is  because it keeps them from maintaining bond with old friends. Some people might agree with the point; nevertheless, others might not agree with it. However, I am convinced that moving different nations or towns is beneficial for people. Actually, I have two specific reasons to strengthen my idea. I will clearly show and develop my idea as specifically as I can in the next following paragraphs: understanding various cultures profoundly and meeting new people with different perspectives.   To begin with, people can first-handedly experience a number of cultures while living in living in other countries. If people stay in one region and just search through the Internet or read books in order to know about foreign cultures, it may not be very effective. On the other hand, if people visit and watch historical remains of certain nations, they can better understand the culture of than nation by feeling is directly. Although some people might not agree with my idea, it does not take a genius to understand it. To tell one of my stories as an example, when I majored in architecture in my college, I learned about the ancient roman architectures through my text books, and I thought I was intimate to the subject. Yet, when  I went to Italy after graduation in order to learn about the ancient Roman architectures, I realized that my thought was totally wrong. Whenever I went to see each architect, I trembled with awe and astonishment that I had never felt when I was in college. If I had not been to Rome, I would not have had deeper understanding on what I had roughly learned at college.          Moreover, moving to different regions allows me to learn about diverse perspectives from various people. Even though some people might argue that living in many places has nothing to do with experiencing numerous perspectives, I believe that it is the best way for people to interact with different kinds of people and broaden their horizon. For instance, one of my cousins said that attending international school in Japan and associating with global friends contributed his unconfined perspectives treating people. In fact, KSC, Korean Statistical Center in South Korea did survey on exchange western students attending Korean National University pertaining to their experience in foreign country and its effect on their points-of-view. Interestingly, for about 80 percent of them, attending the international school and living in abroad were a great chance for them to encounter different types of people including those having incompatible thoughts from theirs. In addition, that experience contributed to their ability to embrace others with different ideas when their opinions have conflict. As the example indicates, people can get access to various perspectives by residing in different nations.    To summarize the points made in the paragraphs above, I concretely believe that people migrating to different towns or nations is helpful in that it encourages their comprehension on a variety of cultures and perspectives.
