Teacher Jang Jeong- sik 's poetry
He appeared on the television program < The Age of Man > and was a
teacher all his life. He was the teacher who was said to be alive . He
was a truly great teacher . I kept the poem my teacher sent me at my
wedding for a long time, but no matter how hard I searched, I couldn't
find it . However, your poem remains almost untouched in my memor
y . I think of the teacher's poem as soon as it comes to mind .
The poem my teacher sent me at my wedding was like this .
No matter how difficult it was, you always smiled ,
No matter how difficult it is, I believe you will definitely do it .
Poetry by teacher Jang Jeong-sik
To Oh Seong ,,,
No matter how difficult it was, you always smiled ,
Even when everyone else is home from work, you are at school ,,,
Even when everyone else is sleeping
You ran and jumped alone and always practiced like that ,
On the day I stayed at work, I ran to see what was going on ,,,
You were the one exercising alone in the dark of night .
At that time, I already believed that you would definitely succeed in so
mething .
And no matter how difficult life's journey is,
I believe you will definitely do it .
Congratulations on your marriage ,,,
