Going to

look at me, they

ask.

Where are you going?

(…)

I know

how happy it

is to study all the

time,

how important

it is,

but

I

'm

worried about how to talk about this

. A student who goes to class without a single absence even at the age of near 90, and 70 years old who couldn't go to school because of a poor home Students, a student who lost their parents at the age of 12 and took care of two younger siblings, and other seniors who couldn't learn to write for different reasons, wrote their lives with their hearts on the Korean language they learned later.

, stood in line for more than 30 minutes and bought a mask.

I can't think of my son at all.

When I went to my

son's

house, my

son raised a stick.

"Mother, wear this mask!"

"I also brought a mask to

tell you

..."

I gave my son and my son to my

mom, and

the

same 4

masks

I

had in the bag,

but the

bag became heavy.

In particular, the word'corona' appeared the most in these 35 works.

From the sadness of leaving a sick younger brother without even going to it, to the determination to learn hard, not to take an online class instead of a field class, there are various aspects of living in the era of Corona 19.

My son is a flying pilot.

But these days, I take a break from Corona 19.

It's even more pitiful that the

son,

who was the pleasure of

his

mother,

couldn't fly without a circle

because

he

was just like a daughter

and

only at home.

Young people.

The world always falls and people grow.

It

can

fly

again

like a paper plane thrown by that kid

.

You can overcome it.

Let's do a little more.

"The poems written by literacy learners who participated in the poetry exhibition are more vivid than the poems of any poet, and the crooked writing gives a greater impression than any fine writing." I hope that many citizens will feel the importance of learning to write together and remember their dreams and hopes once more in their hearts during difficult times due to coronavirus."

The 35 poems of the elderly can be viewed through live broadcast on YouTube of the Seoul Lifelong Education Promotion Agency starting at 2 pm tomorrow (25th).

Anyone can view it until the end of October on the online Sihwa Exhibition website (slec.kr).
