We all know that Korean people work hard. It’s something like a national motto. We study hard, practice hard, sing hard. The delivery drivers work hard. The pop stars work hard. The students work hard. Everything in the country appears to be the result of intense personal and collective effort. And what results it can sometimes bring! Our country today, with its political, economic, and cultural revolutions, stands proudly as a result. From nothing; from the devastation of war and colonization, we have built a country that millions now flock to.
