Experience
On one summer day my dad took me to the Samgyetang restaurant. It is traditional for all Koreans to eat this food and relieve summer heat. According to my dad eating something hot was supposed to cool our body temperature. I didn't believe him. How is eating boiled chicken instead of freezing ice cream supposed to cool us off? But when I put a spoonful of Samgyetang my dad was right. With every drop of my sweat dripping on my face I felt relived.
