Abstract: In this article, we will deal with the mysterious experiences of St. Paul, who was the great apostle of Christianity in the first century and Dasuk, the representative spiritual figure of the Korean Church. And we will calculate the aspects of how the experience of God is achieved and the least common multiple aspects of the mystic experience. Paul and Dasuk experienced God. After the experience, Paul was transformed into an apostle for the Gentiles, and Dasuk was born again (‘Rebirth Day’). When we compare the experience between the two people, common things that can’t be ignored are found. They stood before the eternal present God, untouched by time, through which they experienced the dramatic change. The content of the question of Paul and Dasuk has changed from the ethical level to the existential level. The experience of God is the enlightenment that brings about a Change of Being. Therefore, in life after enlightenment, revelation and calling would never be divided into two. It is an excellent example of Paul, who had spent his entire life as a gospel preacher, and Dasuk, who lived a lifetime as an educator devoted to explaining the words of God.

Abstract: There is a remarkable increase in the number of foreign students coming to Beijing, Shanghai and Hong Kong to study Mandarin in recent years. As Chinese Language is one of the hottest subjects for them to choose, in 2017, there are about 950 foreign students (undergraduates or exchange students) studying Chinese as a Foreign Language courses in the University of Hong Kong. Compared with teaching Mandarin in Beijing or Shanghai, Mandarin teachers and foreign learners have to take much more challenges inside as well as outside the classroom because 97% of the population in Hong Kong speaks Cantonese. In this paper, we demonstrate our curriculum design of Chinese as a Foreign Language courses from Level One to Level Eight and a Chinese history and culture course titled as “Exploration of Major Cultural Themes across Chinese History” at the University of Hong Kong. The medium of instruction of these courses is bilingual. We would systematically explore the detailed structure and design of courses based on our teaching team over these years of solid practice, with the aim to show a model in this area for the international educational academia to refer to.
