Description
Contemporary society’s tendency to venerate success and reprimand failure is plaguing humanity as a whole. As part of humanity, I am not immune to the influence of this tendency. Since time immemorial, I have been afraid of failing and yet have belittled my successes. Nevertheless, I am not perfect and cannot succeed in everything I do, so I have experienced several failures. When I do fail, however, my family always becomes the foothold to keep me standing so I can continue my life. Because they were always present beside me, I could escape the pitfalls of despair and self-deprecation. The future ahead of me will have many more and even bigger failures. By choosing to write this chronicle of my wondrously empowering family, I choose to indelibly etch their words on my heart to brace myself for those future failures.

현대 사회의 성공과 실패를 질책하려는 경향은 전반적으로 인간성을 괴롭히고 있다. 인류의 한 부분으로서 나는 이러한 경향의 영향을 받지 않는다. 태고적부터 나는 실패가 두려웠지만 나의 성공은 무시해왔다. 그럼에도 불구하고, 나는 완벽하지 않고 내가 하는 모든 일에서 성공할 수 없어, 그래서 나는 몇 번의 실패를 경험했다. 하지만 내가 실패했을 때, 내 삶을 지속할 수 있도록 가족은 항상 내가 서 있도록 하는 발판이 된다. 그들은 항상 내 곁에 있었기 때문에, 나는 절망과 자멸의 함정에서 벗어날 수 있었다. 내 앞날에는 더 많은 실패가 있을 것이다. 이 놀라운 힘을 발휘하는 가족의 연대기를 쓰기로 선택함으로써, 나는 미래의 실패에 대비해 마음에 지울 수 없이 그들의 말을 새겨 넣기로 했다.

“Jin Young, also known as Jin among her closest friends, is a graduating high school senior at Hankuk Academy of Foreign Studies who simply loves reading and writing. She also loves singing, and currently, she is the lead singer of her school’s concert choir. Despite her aquaphobia, she completed the American Red Cross-Level 5 course for swimming, and her forte is breaststroke. Falling into reverie is crucial in her daily routine. She firmly believes in the Law of Attraction from Rhonda Byrne’s “The Secret.” Her extremely high-pitched voice and her inability to top off pet bottles sometimes let people mistake her for an elementary school kid. Nevertheless, she has confidence in what she does and loves herself just the way she is. If there is anything that she loves as much as she does herself, it is her family, which is what this book is all about.”
