Although people say age is only a number, from cradle to grave we are labeled by our age, and those labels sometimes hinder us. Age diversity affects school life at Ewha as well. Age can be a barrier for students to mingle together, and the Korean custom of calling people by different titles according to relative difference in age adds to the awkwardness. People younger or older than the average also face difficulties at school. Still there are people who have overcome the age barrier and accomplished their goals. The age conflict is a universal issue but is also a specific part of Ewha’s culture. Therefore, this month the Ewha Voice investigates the age conflict people face at Ewha and the causes behind it.
