Pop culture in my culture

Pop Culture in My culture  

TV show "KELIN( bride) "

          I presented about TV show "Kelin" which is popular in my country at the moment. This is like "Miss beauty" competition, but important is not beauty of ladies, important is abilities. This competition has many steps, and winner should pass every steps with success. Of course, steps are very difficult for urban ladies. Because cooking traditional tastes, milking cow, cleaning chicken, and also general knowledge. Purpose of the TV show is how should brides respect mother-in-law? Mother-in-law is important person in brides life. Why I chose that one for Americanize? Because American people can't live without technology and electricity. I showed just idea, we will change somethings.
