| DMB-The mobile TV
Watching TV was something I could do only when I was at home, sitting on a comfortable sofa. But now, the concept of watching TV has changed. DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) allowed us to get out of the couch and watch TV anywhere, anytime we want.
It was a sensation when it was first introduce in 2005. Anyone who had a device like cell phone, navigation or PMP(Portable Media Player), could watch TV even while walking! You don't have to hurry home to be in front of the television to watch your favorite show or there's no need to fight over the remote control with a family member to watch the program that you want. The only thing you need to do is pull out the antenna, click on the dmb icon, and search for the program you want to see. Thanks to the mobility, it helps people to spend boring times much happier while in public transportations, traffics, and so forth. Some people are worried because some car accidents and other minor accidents like bumping to each other or to a thing, is caused by watching dmb. Because people get so absorbed to the program, they don't look around. However, I think that dmb is a definitely cool invention.
Now it's not hard to see people watching TV anywhere. As it's been not long after the invention, there are some problems that should be resolved. But dmb changed our environment of watching TV and it is now a part of our everyday life.

6. i agree with that part, that we don't need to fight for remote control :) and i think it would be much better if you suggested your idea more stronger at the intro.

ReplyDelete1. yes
2. yes, I can say it has kind of hook, but it is not strong enough to be a hook to make people read this essay.
3. yes, DMB made people watch TV anywhere anytime.
4. Actually I don't know much about the functions of DMB, but from this essay, it is made just for providing service of watching TV programs. Writers said that we could watch the programs we wanted whenever or wherever. But I think there are more interesting and kind of educational effect of DMB. So I think she can add more.
5. I agree with the point that DMB gives people pleasure anywhere anytime they want.
6. "Are there any other functions of DMB?"

ReplyDeleteWatching TV was something I could do only when I was at home, sitting on a comfortable sofa. But now, the concept of watching TV has changed. DMB(Digital Multimedia Broadcasting) allowed us to get out of the couch and watch TV anywhere, anytime we want. Also dmb changed the radio environment from ‘listening’ to ‘watching’.
It was a sensation when it was first introduce in 2005. Anyone who had a device like cell phone, navigation or PMP(Portable Media Player), could watch TV even while walking! You don't have to hurry home to be in front of the television to watch your favorite show or there's no need to fight over the remote control with a family member to watch the program that you want. The only thing you need to do is pull out the antenna, click on the dmb icon, and search for the program you want to see. It’s not only TV but also radio is available by dmb. One remarkable thing about it is that now we can listen and watch radio through dmb! It provides some images or a live video of the radio studio just like TV and we can view what’s going on in the studio. It’s called ‘boinun radio’ in Korean, maybe visible radio in English. So, we can say that dmb is the icon of convergence of different types of media. It allows us to access to various kinds of technology through a single system. Thanks to the mobility, it helps people to spend boring times much happier while in public transportations, traffics, and so forth. Some people are worried because some car accidents and other minor accidents like bumping to each other or to a thing, is caused while watching dmb. Because people get so absorbed to the program, they don't look around. So people should be careful when they watch dmb while moving. But still, I think that dmb is a definitely cool invention.
Now it's not hard to see people watching dmb anywhere. As it's been not long after the invention, there are some problems that should be resolved. But dmb changed our environment of watching TV and listening, maybe watching radio and it is now a part of our everyday life.
