Nowadays, in the countryside of Korea, a lot of schools are closing. This is because of the low birth rate and decreasing population of children in the countryside of Korea. There is a school in the countryside of Korea and this school is close to being closed. This school has 14 students in the whole school, which is a small number. The principal of this school got very nervous about this issue and made a vow to the parents that their school would give the students a chance to study overseas every year and get a scholarship. Also, they would let the student's family live in a house that is close to the school if they only pay 2 million won. These enormous advantages that the students and their families get changed other parent's minds to transfer their child's school. I think these parents made their decisions on moving their child's schools to a school in the countryside that only has 14 students in total because of the advantages they get if their child goes to that school. If their child goes to that school, the parents can still work and not be poor. Because of what the principal said, 5 students have made their decisions about moving to this school in the countryside. This case is a little not familiar with our schools. My school has more than 1000 students in total and a school that has only 14 students in total is something I have never thought existed. People should live in the countrysides, too. Cities can be harmful to people's health and the countryside doesn't. If people only live in the city, the city would be too busy.
