Last but not least, I learned that being different might not be bad. Being different lets you to experience different things. In the story, Yoon learned to write in English in school, she didn’t know how to write in English, because she was from Korea. But these new things could extend her knowledge, because she was different. So, being different can help you to know a lot of new things.
