Japan's World Cup Fans Are The Most Courteous
Summary : Japan's World Cup Fans are very courteous. In general, many sports fans oftentimes leaves their trash after watching a match. Japan played its final match of the World Cup on June 25 against Colombia and Japan lost the match. Despite losing the match, they cleaned the stadium. So citizens of the world were impressed and the players of the Japanese felt proud of their fan's behavior.
persuasive : After read this article, I think we, Korean should respect Japanese's courteous behavior because stadium will be cleaning, Korean didn't behavior like Japanese and Korean usually compare with Japan. If act like Japanese, stadium will be clean so other fans can cheer the match with a good grace. A few days ago, in Gwanghwamun - gate, Korean cheer their soccer player. But after finish the match, there were many trash and this made traffic problem. Some Korean hate Japanese unconditionally about Dok -Do or Japanese colonial era. But I think we respect Japanese about that civic consciousness. For these three reason, I think we learn from Japanese's behavior in stadium.

Tokyo Keeps Growing as Japan's Population Falls
Summary : While Japan's population fell continually, the number of residents in the Japan's three main urban center increased. Because of population shrinking and aging, it is influence on nation's finances and companies negative way. Also many regional people go to urban areas, particularly Tokyo. The widening gap between the rural and urban regions in the country may increase the disparity in the weight of votes.
Persuasive : This article is worry to read because Korean become aging society, population is concentrated to Seoul, vote disparity is heavy by regional groups. In Korea, new generation does not want to bear a baby so Korea become aging society. Also, like Dokyo, about half of Korean are concentrated to Seoul. For these reason, I am worried that this trend make Korea many problems about finances and companies.

Japanese town carves up whale in front of schoolchildren
Summary : In wada, town of Japan, worker carved up a whale as a crowd of school students and residents. Wada is proud of its centuries-old traditions and takes pains to teach such local culture and history to its children. The International Court of Justice(ICJ) ordered a halt for program in the Antarctic. But Wada's whale is not related about that program so worker will do their tradition continually.
Persuasive : Their whale tradition is good looking because children can learn biology, children can learn culture about whale and Japanese try to keep their tradition. By dissecting a whale children can learn biology such as organization of living things. By eating some whale meat, they can know tasty of whale and it means they learn culture.
They try to keep their tradition against from international institution ICJ. For these three reason, Wada's whale tradition is attractive.

Seoul rejects Japan's call to cancel military exercise near Dokdo
Summary : South Korea rejected Japan's call for the cancellation of a military exercise near the Dokdo. Japan's chief government delivered the objection that saying the area of the exercise includes part of Japan's territorial waters near Dokdo. But south Korea government rejected the call because nearby Dokdo is territory of Korea. So Japan's claim has long been a source of on and off diplomatic tensions.
Persuasive : This article make me think again about Japan because territory problem with Korea, territory problem with China and I think Japan have many things to learn. Japan have territory problems with China as well as Korea. It means Japan have problem about relationship related to territory. But, actually I think Japan have many things to learn like culture, their behavior. So these territory problem make me confuse.
