Both students are also fluent in English. And both recently excelled in a competition featuring the language of fourth country&#8211;Japan. YoungHoon won the Consul General Special Prize in the annual Michigan Japanese Speech Contest, held at Wayne State University last week.\u00a0 His speech was titled \u201cI Don&#8217;t Like Him.\u201d\u00a0 In it, he expressed his ambivalent feelings about Japanese novelist Haruki Murakami, considered by many a potential winner of a Nobel Prize for literature. YoungHoon\u2019s extensive knowledge of modern Japanese literature impressed the audience. Jie was a finalist in the speech contest. In her talk, &#8220;Preserving Traditional Chinese Art,&#8221; she discussed how a pottery class she took at K in her first year provided her an opportunity to rediscover the pottery and the tea ceremony that are part of her Chinese heritage. That renewal, in turn, led her to expand her interest, geographically, to include the pottery and language of Japan.\u00a0 Also of note, Jie passed the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) 2nd Level, a significant achievement for someone who has not participated in study abroad, according to assistant professor of Japanese <strong>Noriko Sugimori<\/strong>. K&#8217;s success in the speech contest was surely a team effort. Said Professor Sugimori: \u201cWe are particularly grateful to our Japanese teaching assistants\u2014<strong>Yoji Hayashibe<\/strong>, <strong>Kaoru Ishida<\/strong>, and <strong>Reika Murakami<\/strong>\u2014for their insightful feedback on the early drafts of YoungHoon and Jie\u2019s speeches.\u201d At K YoungHoon is majoring in East Asian studies and in philosophy; Jie is majoring in art.
