Lieutenant Jeong Kiseon and Platoon Commander Choi Bongseop
I began my service in the 31st Regiment's Officer's Quarters (BOQ) as a
tennis enlisted man for the regiment .
During my military life, I spent my time playing soccer and tennis .
While teaching tennis to a regiment commander , I met Lieutenant Chung
Ki-seon . Not only was he an outstanding person , but he also had a good
personality , and he was especially kind to me .
Then, Lieutenant Chung Kiseon trained the soldiers to throw grenades .
Before demonstrating ...
I held a practical grenade and gave a lecture on the structure and throwing
of a grenade .... Because I was so absorbed in the explanation , was remov
ed, the grip I was holding was lost ... and the grenade exploded . At that m
oment, the surroundings became chaos, and the lieutenant who was demon
strating died on the spot .... Truly ... a tragic incident occurred . Several so
ldiers who were listening to the lecture were seriously injured .... The enti
re unit was completely turned upside down .
After that incident .... not long after that .
A letter engraved with flower patterns was sent to the dead lieutenant of t
he liner .
The letter was delivered to me as I was sorting out his belongings .
about to incinerate the lost letter ... when I opened the envelope .
The story written there was full of truly amazing details .
' To my beloved Kiseon, Mijeong from Wonju ....'
The content of the letter was that the parents of Wonju, who had been opp
osed to the couple's marriage , had only approved the marriage today .
I couldn't say anything for a while . I couldn't tell this to anyone .
As those memories were fading , a long-distance call came through BOQ .
Private Kim, who was on duty, answered the phone .
