Today again, the breeze is refreshing, and the green of the trees shines brilliantly. It is a beautiful season. Although the world’s state of crisis remains a constant concern in my heart, I have work to do, and I am devoted, without surrendering and without losing hope, to the creation of a new world. I am deeply grateful that I have reached a state in which I can face reality directly while creating what lies ahead. As I come to understand more how momentous the “Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered” on the 13th is in the course of history, I cannot refrain from recommending it, and now, I find myself urging people to attend with complete sincerity and strength. I believe it is that significant an event. Deep down, I have always known that this is not simply something one attends if convenient, but an event that deserves the highest priority in one’s life. Yet, because I was too mindful of the various circumstances of others, I realize I restrained myself for a long time from recommending it as directly as I do today. I now understand that it is only natural that the “Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered,” which itself is an event held with the utmost commitment, should be conveyed with equal seriousness and expressed in such a way that people may come. Today, through a message received in a dream, I was made aware that being unable to bring oneself to such a place becomes a loss in one’s life. As I reflected on what a “loss in life” means, I found the answer within myself and shared it with others. The “Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered” is a place where one receives fully with one’s life the energy to open a new era, and where even a way of living becomes embodied within oneself. It will surely continue to serve one throughout a lifetime. Once life has undergone an experience, one’s state is already entirely different from what it was before that experience. After a new experience, one naturally begins to feel a sense of incongruity when faced with experiences that are not so. If we can live in a way that allows us to continue realizing, changing, and growing, then no matter what kind of era may come, we can survive and continue creating a new world. There can hardly be a greater blessing than being able to experience all of this within a ninety-minute concert. Although I go on stage reciting poetry, I too wish to meet the day with complete devotion, and so I spend each day with the utmost care. I strive to complete all that must be done so that I may welcome the day with nothing lingering in me. At last, only three days remain until the “Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered” takes place. I will devote myself to it with all my strength. Thank you very much.
