Blackout/Electricity - Kim Jae Hoon (김재훈)

Sometimes, we tend to take for granted what we are given. 

We live in an environment where electricity can be used at any time. The power outages that occurred in class were embarrassing for us as we were unable to proceed with the lesson.


-Why Electricity is important?
If there is no electricity in modern society, people really stop being productive. Like in the evening how the sun makes it impossible to do most outdoor activities, indoor activities would be the same. In addition, the use of all electronic devices, including computers and smartphones, becomes impossible. This means that all online SMS activities become impossible, including Twitter, Facebook, KakaoTalk, and even posting activities, like what I'm doing now.
Also, all industrial systems would be paralyzed - material supply would be interrupted. Most of the abandoned cars would be stopped in the middle of the road and the use of public transport (such as the metro) becomes impossible. If the blackout persists, we would have to worry about living in the future.


Sudden power outage events that took place in this class taught us about the 'importance of what we take for granted.'
