### Seed Bomb

 

These days, many people make a special bomb.

But don't worry, it doesn't explode.

It is called a seed bomb.

It is a ball made with dirt and clay.

Inside, a seed bomb has many different kinds of seeds.

For example, some seed bombs have pepper seeds and wildflower seeds.

People throw the bomb outside.

They throw it in a field or a forest.

The dirt in the ball gives the seeds food.

Soon, sprouts grow from the bomb.

This way, many different flowers and plants find new homes.

### New UNESCO World Heritage Site

 

Korea has a new UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Seowon received this honor in July.

Let's learn more about Seowon and UNESCO World Heritage Sites.

UNESCO is an agency of the United Nations.

It keeps a list of World Heritage Sites.

These sites are very important to world history and culture.

So, countries should protect these sites.

In Korea, there are now 14 World Heritage Sites.

They include Hwaseong Fortress, Jongmyo Shrine, and Bulguksa Temple.

Seowon is Korea's 14th World Heritage Site.

It is the name of Confucian schools during the Joseon Kingdom.

At Seowon, scholars discussed Confucian ideas.

They also taught many students.

These students prepared for the civil service exam.

Seowon played an important role in Korean history.

Now, the Korean government and UNESCO will preserve thses ancient schools.

In Busan, some Korean high school students did a brave thing.

They saved a man under a car.

His car was parked on a hill.

Suddenly, the car rolled down.

He was trapped under the car.

Then, five high school girls saw him.

They pushed the car.

It slowed down.

Other people helped the students.

Together, they saved the driver.

"We thank these brave high school students," the Busan Police said.

They look like runways for airplanes.

There are lines of lights along the crosswalk.
