Hello.
Hwalgi is a passion project - an effort to give a voice to the people who will soon be the next generation of voters, legislators, and decision-makers.
Pen x Paper
As much as streamed media encroaches on written mediums, comic books replaced by animated shows and novels by TV shows, critical essays still hold an important place in society.
You and I have the power to incite change through keystrokes. Think about that - we can bend the world using nothing but our words. That's an incredible prospect, and one that we must keep exploring.
You, Me, and the Rest of Us
But Hwalgi isn't a blog. It isn't one man writing alone in a dark room. It's a collective effort among students everywhere, saying what needs to be said.
So go! Submit your writing - we want to hear your opinion, amplify it. We're not politically affiliated, so send us whatever you've got.
We won't publish hate speech or misinformation, but everything else is fair game.
Tomorrow - or the Day After
Hwalgi doesn't end here: there are so many things we want to do in the future. Imagine a weekly newsletter that carriers our voice everywhere. Imagine a print publication that sits in a dentist's office for anyone to see. Imagine workshops to help young writers become catalysts for change.
We can't wait for the future - but right now, our focus is on now.
The Serious, and the Not-So-Serious
But we aren't just a no-frills website with no fluff; send us your dog stories and your dating advice columns. We're here to be the megaphone for students - and students wouldn't be students without all those things.
