Wu's creativity and perseverance shine in leadership, academic achievements
Born to Chinese parents, Wu Zhengxiu is a second grader at Sunil Middle School in Ansan, Gyeonggi Province.
Wu overcame a language barrier in Korean with diligence and endless effort. When he first arrived in Korea, he reached out to his colleagues to improve his Korean skills and quickly mastered the language. He continues to improve his Korean, which now is nearly perfect, to express his thoughts more creatively and effectively.
He has achieved outstanding scholastic accomplishments and activities through his self-driven, hard work. Not only has he been given accolades for scoring at the top of his class, but also Wu is praised by many for his warm-hearted and thoughtful attitudes toward the people around him. He demonstrates a particular strength in embracing others and reaching out to those in need. Before the pandemic, he actively volunteered at local welfare facilities for children.

During the pandemic, Wu decided to become a pharmacist to help people suffering from diseases in marginalized parts of the world.
