Mt. Jagoh shrouded in memories of joy, tragedy
Mt. Jagoh shrouded in memories of joy, tragedy
Confined to the house endlessly, day after day, to avoid exposure to COVID-19, I missed lots of things outdoors. Most of all, I missed the clean, fresh air and the pretty, verdant growth of nature on Mt. Jagoh, which rises to a modest elevation of 303 meters. Waegwan is a small town with a population of less than 50,000 and there is nothing much to enjoy, from the perspective...

Building a firm foundation
Building a firm foundation
When the wind blows, I think. When the cool breeze touches my cheek. When trees are dark green, I feel comfortable in their shade. I think about my life and this world. When the sky is crystal-clear and deep blue without any blemishes, I can hear sparrows chirping and singing, I think about yesterday, today and tomorrow.

The book that changed everything
The book that changed everything
What would be the book that can change everything? Many inspiring books can change our lives and perspectives. Among them, I would dare say that the Bible is the most inspiring book that can change everything.

For a beautiful student
For a beautiful student
I was so delighted when you called last spring to tell me you had passed the teacher employment test. I was almost in tears learning that you were going to be an elementary teacher in Busan. I could picture you smiling in a classroom full of happy kids, your dream come true. Your former high school homeroom teacher couldn't have been prouder.

My teacher
My teacher
My best-ever teacher was a woman whom I met in the first grade of middle school. She was distinctively different from the other teachers. Surrounded by boisterous pupils who were overly excited about entering middle school, she managed to stay calm and undeterred throughout the semester. Unlike most female teachers who were very soft and gentle, she was strong, determined and...

Organizational culture and HR managers
Organizational culture and HR managers
An organizational culture is built by the interconnected consequences of various organizational functions. Without adjustment of the multiple factors affecting organizational culture, it is difficult to achieve change.

Musings on 'diamond anniversary'
Musings on 'diamond anniversary'
The 60th anniversary represents quite a remarkable span of time and is called a diamond jubilee. Before life expectancy spanned into the so-called contemporary “100-year-old life” era, the time span of 60 years used to be a wonderful celebration event to mark the amazing grace of the longevity of life, as far as my memory goes. Diamond jubilees are to some extent still feted ...

Disruption and instability grow in Africa
Disruption and instability grow in Africa
The leader of Gabon in Africa, Ali Bongo, has been overthrown in a sudden military coup on Aug. 30, right after he was declared the winner in a contested presidential election. This appears to have been a result of strife within the powerful group that has ruled the nation for a half-century, not a fundamental change in the nature of the regime.

My green forest room
My green forest room
As a renowned modernist writer, Virginia Woolf pioneered stream of consciousness as a narrative device. In 1929 she wrote an essay titled “A Room of One's Own.” She opined that a woman should have her own room in order to be a writer. In other words, a woman had to be economically independent to write good essays or novels. In Woolf's early days, work and education opportunit...

Tracing our ancestral roots
I recently had the pleasure of meeting the Choi family, descendants of Korean-American heritage. This encounter occurred during an introductory event, organized by professor David A. Mason. Douglas Choi, a representative of Sons of Rigor Films in Boston, attended the event with his two sons. The elder son is a junior majoring in computer engineering and an ROTC cadet at Harva...
