    The specific purpose of the speech was to persuade people to agree with Korean reunification.

    • The speech organization supported the speech's specific purpose. 1
    Her speech was well organized. There was an introduction, body, and conclusion. Also, she clearly stated the reason why we should reunify in her body part and that really supported the speech's purpose.

    • The main points and supporting material contributed to the speech's specific purpose. 1
    To persuade people, she mentioned 2 reasons why reunification is needed. These reasons are quite acceptable and reasonable.
    1 - economic reasons : North Korea's natural resources / South Korea's mild temperature and food supplies
    Large part of capital funds wasted as a military cost
    2- ethnic reasons : originally 1 ethnic group, dispersed families

    In the introduction part of her speech, she mentioned the movie "KOREA" to draw attention of the audience, and she clearly mentioned the main topic of her speech. Then, in the body part, she suggested the reason why we should reunify with North Korea. In her conclusion, she talked about what is required for peaceful reunification and her personal experience and feelings, so

    • The speaker achieved the specific purpose. 1
    She achieved the specific purpose because I personally agreed with her opinion after I heard the speech.

    • The speaker appeared confident and sincere, with minimal nervousness. 1
    Her voice was loud enough so I could hear her very well. She seemed to have a confidence with her speech because she prepared and practiced it a lot.

    • The speaker did not rely on notes throughout the speech. 1
    She didn't have notes in her hands. She memorized the whole content of her speech.

    • What could the speaker have done differently to make the speech more effective?
    Her speech was really great, but it could be much better if she mentioned her purpose more clearly in the introduction. For example, she could use the phrases such as "After hearing my speech, you can~". Also she could summarize her speech a little bit in her conclusion.

    • What did you like about the presentation?
    Her topic was creative and interesting because no one has same topic with her in our class. Also she gave her speech with a confidence so her speech was very persuasive. Before hearing her speech, I didn't think about the reason why we need reunification personally, but now I know some benefits we can get through the reunification.
