September will be another month of many changes

I anticipated a lot of drastic changes to happen and this month was started by the sudden resignation of the Japanese prime minister Mr. Fukuda. I used to be afraid of sudden incidents such as natural disasters, the outbreak of conflict, earthquake, etc. But now I am ready to face any event and take the most appropriate action. My state of consciousness has indeed completely changed owing to Idaki Shin’s concerts, lectures and seminar in August. Today I held a screening event of the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concerts held four times only within the last 30 days. Every time there was a scene of Koguryo’s historic sites I could not resist shedding tears. They are corresponding to my poems on Koguryo. However I felt as if I were watching a scene of an unknown future. Idaki Shin improvised completely different music for each poem and for each concert. There was no scene that resembled another. Owing to this, my poetic performance has given quite a different impression to the audience at each concert. When one is moved to one’s soul one becomes energetic and opens up a marvelous future. What we express at the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert is not mere imagination but a great romanticism that corresponds to past history and predicts the future of mankind.
