Friends are busy with their works, getting married with the love of their life, experiencing the parenthood with their 1st born... or maybe 3rd.
By age, I
should be one of those people by now. But neither of that kind of life I’m
living now. Still a girl who enthusiastically learns about Korean culture, and
fully booked with those Korea-related classes and events. That’s why, I still
think that I do have some privileges. And I’m so thankful for that.
Announced as
the winner for a trip to Korea by Honorary Reporter program two years ago was like a dream
come true. Once the trip ended, I was slightly worried about the future.
Never had I imagined
I would stand in front of many people at a sophisticated hall, holding an
oversized winner’s board. That time, I had mixed feelings, I could see all the
images of myself in the past who would never stand in front of anyone. I wanted
to cry, but I was also super happy. Most of things I felt that time was the
grateful and thankful feeling to God, family, friends, and everyone who supported
my works.
Year 2023 was indeed special.
I received so many love and invaluable appreciations in 2023, whether
it was from Honorary Reporter or Korea – ASEAN Online Supporter, but I don’t
want to think that the year 2023 was my best year, because for me, it sounds
scary as if next year or the year after that wouldn’t be the best.
Thus, I want to
believe that the best is yet to come.
