LIFE: KEYWORDS OF 2018

Oh gosh! 2018 is coming to end and I’m not ready for 2019. So many things happened in 2018. I’m planning to do a summary video on my YouTube Channel, but let’s see if I have enough time to edit it. I want to share you my unrevealed days in 2018. So, how’s your 2018? Are your resolutions going well as you planned in the beginning of 2018? I’m going to share how’s my resolution work this year, too.

Same as last year, I’m going to do a reflection post of 2018. This time, I’m going to use keywords to sum up my 2018 journey.

#1 머물어 (Stay)

This one word in Korean is a keyword in most of my favorite K-pop songs. Especially, Wanna One songs. This one word taught me how precious is your loved one, the one who always be on your side and hear you out whenever you are down or up. Also, a reminder to never leave someone you love aside.

“언제까지나 머물러줘

Stay with me until always”

– Twilight by Wanna One

Recommending a song from g.o.d called ‘One Candle’, it was a great song for reminding you that you are not alone.

“

지치고 힘들땐

(When you’re tired and exhausted)
내게 기대

(Lean on me)
언제나 니곁에서 있을게

(I will always be by your side)
혼자라는 생각이들지않게

(So that you never feel like you’re alone in this world)
내가너의손잡아줄게

(I’ll be right beside you, holding your hand)

“

#2 노력 (Effort)

A word that keep me moving forward this year. I’m extremely trying so many new things in 2018, especially after moving to Korea. But before my days in Korea, I also did so much effort especially in creating good contents with gudang.co (now Goed Studio). I keep on learning that the process, the effort that counts. I just want to share with all of you, that keep on doing effort, don’t give up too quickly. It’s okay if the result is not as good as you expected, but give your 100% for everything you do.

#3 환경오염 (Environmental Pollution)

Really, this year I’m spending myself around this issue. I felt terrible with the fact that this environmental pollution is keep on increasing. Without realizing, this year I created an Earth Day campaign content, one of my life bucket list is being more environmental friendly, created a new product proposal presentation at the language school about recycling and also visited recycling fair. I pretty much involved regarding this issue and I’m also participating in letting others know how important this issue is. Korean Government has banned using plastic cups and straws for dine in purpose. I’m really liking this movement and hope all of the cafes and restaurant in the world will do the same thing. I believe that changes start from the smallest thing.

Sadden by the fact that a whale found dead because of plastic in Indonesia this year. While working on my presentation, I found out that plastic was once a magical material, but it turns out it became the most dangerous weapon. It kills us slowly. So, my dear readers, if you are reading this post, please restrain yourself for using plastic. Eat more real food, choose can bottles instead of plastic bottles, just minimize throwing trashes. There are a lot of benefits if you use tumbler instead of the plastic cup, so go buy a tumbler and brought it everywhere you go.

I really want that the environment is getting better and it can be achieved with a real action. A little sacrifice and inconvenience might happen, but the result will be not disappointing at least in the future. As the citizen of this earth, let’s work hand in hand to create a better earth!

P.S: Kinda not related, but I wanna travel to Findland or the Northern part of Europe cos it still feels so natural. Too much environmental pollution issue surrounding and I need a healing camp to those kind of places, I think.

#4 Peace

This year is a momentum year for South and North Korea. They are finally going to held hands. On this year Christmas, my Cardinal said “peace should be the theme of our live” and they are the perfect picturesque of Peace. Start with having peace with yourself, then with others. Remember that love has many form, and peace is one of it. So, I hope you have a peaceful year ahead!

#5 Thank You

I heard and say a lot of Thank You this year. This year is a year of celebration for me, so I can’t say enough ‘Thank You’. From the beginning of the year I had a lot of things to celebrate. Head over to my Instagram post here to see the complete story of my life this 2018. I want thank you to you guys who read my blogs and watch my videos! And most of all, thank you to my favorite actors and idols to do your best this year, coloring my days in 2018. Special mention to Park Seojun (I could see you twice this year, after ditching your fan meeting 2 years ago), Wanna One (for completing your crazy busy activities. Well done guys, see you on 24 ^th), Park Bogum (for coming to my graduation and came back on screen!), and Song Joongki (for the awesome 10 years Debut Anniversary fan meeting that I’m grateful to be part of your adventure for 9 years).

Edit: FINALLY I SAW BOTH WANNA ONE AND PARK BOGUM ON THE FIRST MONTH OF JANUARY! WATCH MY JANUARY REWIND HERE

I’m wishing you all a Happy New Year! Hope this year all of your dreams came true and only peace and happiness filled your 2019. Thank you for reading my reflection post this year and see you soon on my next post or video!
