× Actually, there are some 12 buildings near our home, for example Korea University, the Cookman Bank and Children Hospital.
✓ Actually, there are about 12 buildings near our home, for example Korea University, Cookman Bank and the Children's Hospital.
Use 'about' instead of 'some' with a specific number; 'the' is needed before 'Children's Hospital' and possessive form 'Children's' is correct; remove 'the' before proper names like 'Cookman Bank' unless part of official name. Also 'some 12' is unnatural in English. Grammar Problem Type ID: 1
× I really enjoy taking photos, especially when it's raining or snowed because they look very breathtaking and I just love this view.
✓ I really enjoy taking photos, especially when it's raining or snowing, because they look breathtaking and I just love the view.
'Snowed' is the past form and incorrect here; use the present participle 'snowing' after 'when it's'. 'Breathtaking' does not need 'very' (optional) and 'the view' is more natural than 'this view' when speaking generally. This falls under present participle use and adjective/adverb choice. Grammar Problem Type ID: 10
× It helps me to escape from reality for a while by taking.
✓ It helps me escape from reality for a while by taking photos.
The verb phrase 'by taking' needs an object; add 'photos' to complete the gerund phrase. Also 'to escape' and 'escape' are both possible; 'helps me escape' is more natural. This is a sentence structure error (missing object). Grammar Problem Type ID: 26
× In Korea, actually I would like to visit Lotte Tower which is very high and famous building.
✓ In Korea, I would like to visit Lotte Tower, which is a very tall and famous building.
Insert 'a' before 'very tall and famous building' because a singular countable noun requires an article. Also change 'high' to 'tall' when describing buildings and add a comma before the relative clause. This is an article error. Grammar Problem Type ID: 22
× I love seeing other areas by this building.
✓ I love seeing the surrounding areas from this building.
Use 'from' to indicate viewpoint and 'surrounding areas' is more natural than 'other areas by this building'. 'The' is needed before 'surrounding areas'. This is an incorrect use of prepositions and articles. Grammar Problem Type ID: 11
× Yeah, absolutely. I would like to live in this kind of building because, you know, I really love modern and tall sky skyscraper because they offer.
✓ Yeah, absolutely. I would like to live in a building like that because I really love modern, tall skyscrapers and what they offer.
'This kind of building' is awkward; 'a building like that' or 'that kind of building' is better. Use 'a' before singular countable noun. 'Modern, tall skyscrapers' should be plural to match 'they', and 'what they offer' completes the clause; the original sentence ends abruptly. This involves incorrect use of determiners/articles and sentence structure. Grammar Problem Type ID: 22
