The valuable thing for me.

I'm going to introduce the most valuable thing for me. It's my experience. As you know, all Korean men must go the military. Also I did it. I learned many things in that place. While writing, I'm looking back into the past, and it seems to be a dream.

5 years ago, I was in the second year in my university. I liked to play some sports with my friends and traveled to the edge of my country. If I didn't have to do something, only then I studied a little bit. That is, I never thought about my future and I just enjoyed each day.

One day, I got one letter from the Military Manpower administration. Then I thought about the way to escape from military service. But there was no way. I was frustrated. Unbelievably, the time was too fast.

Eventually, I joined the army. There were no women in that place. It was not allowed not only to do any private action but also to talk back. Moreover, I couldn't endure the fact that I would live there for 28 months.

As I much could expect, it was a difficult time since I was born. One day went on, one month went on, the year went on...eventually 28 months went on.

During the time, I learned many things. Among them, nothing is so valuable as my family and Don't waste time. I still keep in mind these things and try to keep them in mind.

If I have a hard time, I will overcome it largely based on memories that during that time.
