I attended the local Queer Festival last Saturday as kind of an outreach program. We collected donations of money, and in turn, gave the donors a T-shirt or some stickers. It took place at Seoul’s City Hall, but it was still easy to see many people did not like the fact that this festival was happening there, let alone, at all.

They simply were not comfortable with it, nor with the lifestyle behind it. It was hard for them to accept it because, for whatever reasons, they think being LGBTQ** is wrong. Personally, however, I have been supporting their right to live their lives, to be themselves, without dealing with any negative stereotypes or facing any discrimination.** & ***

Hi, Youngjun. Good job! Whatever changes I have made were merely to allow your sentences to sound more natural to my native ears, to complete your thoughts, and for ease of reading. Sincerest apologies if I misinterpreted! I hope that this help you. J.

*Interesting that the organizations there lead with "L." Here, in the West, it has always been with a "G."

**The more open-minded individuals in the world there are, the less trouble in the world there will be…

***While "donators" is a valid word, it is mainly used in legal documents. The preferred word for those who give is "donors."
