pg41 essay first draft : 200801528 BA Byun, Jaehee

My favorite food is beef small intestines and tripe. In Korea, it is called 'gopchang gui(곱창구이). It looks like a tube and it's very chewy. I often go to the gopchang gui restaurant, but the beef intestines are pretty expensive(-about 25000 won per person), so I sometimes buy the pork gopchang gui at street stall. There are many kinds of dishes made by gopchang, for example, gopchang gui(곱창구이), gopchang soup(곱창전골), organ-meat soup(내장탕), I like gopchang gui mixed with sundae(순대곱창) the most.

 

Not only the taste, it is also good for the health. Gopchang has enough iron and vitamin compare to other meats, and the taste is distinctive. It is popular for patients, weakly person and pregnant woman because it can be good for rejuvenating the body and increasing stamina. In <Tonguibogam>《동의보감》, Gopchang makes a strong stomach, protect the five viscera (of heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys) and makes the blood pressure normal. It is also high-protein, low-calorie food and when eat gopchang with alcoholic drink it protects the walls of the stomach and decomposes alcohol.

 

I love gopchang gui because of it's spicy and chewy taste. And unlike the fast-food or snacks, it even good for health so I recommend this food to other people who did not eat this unfortunately. The taste of gopchang gui has delicate difference between the restaurant, therefore, travels around to eat at popular restaurants is a kind of enjoyment.

    1. What I like about this piece of writing is you are aware of the food components and your taste.

    2. Your main point seems to be cleared to some extent.

    3. These particular words or lines struck me as powerful:
    Words or lines –Gopchang is popular for patients, weakly person and pregnant woman because it can be good for rejuvenating the body and increasing stamina.
    I like them because you are not only thinking about your own health but also for others.

    4. Some things aren’t clear to me. These lines or parts could be improved (meaning not clear, supporting points missing, order seems mixed up, and writing not lively):
    Lines or parts - And unlike the fast-food or snacks, it even good for health
    Need improving because this sentence is grammatically incorrect. You should write “I dislike fast-food, snacks and even it is not good for health.

    5. The one change you could make that would make the biggest improvement in this piece of writing is you are not cleared about your dislike. You should write in detail. Otherwise, it is good.
