[Model answer; rainy season]

The rainy season comes around every summer in Korea. We get a lot of rain during the season. It usually begins in mid-June and lasts until July. When it rains, it often rains cats and dogs. The annual precipitation in Korea is concentrated in summer because of the rainy season. People always carry an umbrella around during the wet season. After the rainy season, the sweltering heat of summer begins in earnest.

[Model answer2;rainy season]

Once, I was going somewhere by subway. Everyone getting on the train was holding a wet umbrella. It tipped me off that it was raining outside. I didn't have an umbrella on me, so I was in a dilemma over what to do. If I just went out in the rain, my clothes and bag would get drenched. I didn't want to waste money on another umbrella because I had several at home. However, I had no choice. Since then, I always check whether the forecast calls for rain before I leave home.

Japan Restricts Technology Exports to South Korea

On July 4, 2019, Japan restricted exports to South Korea of materials used to make semiconductors and electronic displays. South Korea gets over 90% of these materials from Japan.

South Korea had previously been included on a list of nations that have few restrictions on trade with Japan. However, Japanese officials say it is now necessary to restrict some exports because decreasing trust between the countries has created a national security risk. Officials have not given any examples of specific problems.

Japanese companies must now get approval for each technology-related contract with South Korea. Before the change, exports needed only a single approval process; according to an official from Japan's Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry, approval will now be delayed by an average of 90 days.

South Korea called the change "unjust," saying that it breaks World Trade Organization (WTO) rules. South Korea said it would make a complaint to the WTO.

Samsung Electronics, the world's biggest maker of memory chips and smartphones, and SK Hynix, another major maker of chips, said they were checking how the change would affect their businesses.

Relations between Japan and South Korea have been especially poor since October 2018, when South Korea's Supreme Court ordered Nippon Steel & Sumitomo Metal Corp. to pay $88,000 each to four people who had been forced to work for the company while Japan controlled the Korean Peninsula from 1910-45.

The company refused to pay, saying all issues from the time were settled by a 1965 treaty that restored relations between the two countries. The South Korean Supreme Court then ordered that the company's local assets be taken.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries has also refused to pay forced workers in South Korea, and a South Korean court has ordered its assets taken as well.
