Autumn wind
I narrated a poem about king Tomei at the Legends of Koguryo Rediscovered concert that he had to leave his home land by himself, encountered new fellows on the way and started building a new country in order to allow everybody to live on in happiness. At today’s Idaki counseling entrepreneur courses, I heard that king Tomei was a marvelous example of entrepreneurs in history. I recognized the starting point, while I loved the lands of Koguryo as I could feel the warmth of hearts of people; they used to help each other and shared good things. This should be the most important thing for our future era. Owing to Master Idaki Shin we could realize the core of their life, love, at his concert. I would do so and pave a way for realizing a peaceful world for everybody to live on. As I asked a little child if she wanted to go to Mt. Gojo, immediately she replied with “Yes”. Though she did not know its location and my special meaning about Mt. Gojo, her soul seemed to know very well. I was filled with joy. She also said that she would ride on a horse on her arrival. I recalled a description board at Mt. Gojo that wrote that in ancient Koguryo, people and horses used to drink water from the same well and sleep under one roof.
The autumn wind carried that of Mt. Gojo. When I tried to enter the mountain soon after the death of my mother, Chinese law did not allow me to get there as I was a foreigner, though Mt. Gojo was the land of my ancestors. Then Mt. Gojo became a world heritage site for UNESCO and eight years later I went there again in autumn and all the souls of ancient Koguryo’s people welcomed me carried by winds. This experience was still vividly present within my heart. I was sure that a way for realizing my dream would be guided to happen. I would keep on expressing my deepest wishes wherever I was and live on. Thank you very much.
