TOPIC . 매미 (CICADA)
Talk about cicadas in Korea.
There are many cicadas in Korea. They make a lot of noise in the summer. They can be a bit annoying.
They're around all summer and into early fall. Somefimes, we can hear them all day as they cry at night as well.
They can be distracting as the noise they make is so loud. Plus, they always make noise in groups. When one
starts to cry, all the others start to cry together. They not only live in the countryside but also in the city as well.
Wherever there are trees, chances are you will find them. They eventually die off as the weather gets colder in
last fall.
