5 Years at the Local Library

​

I am an ordinary, 50-year-old father of three sons. Five years ago, while searching for ways to set an example for my children, I got to know "입트영",

​

Searching for a place to both prepare in advance and go over the content after each show, I started going to the local library. It was hard and uncomfortable just to stay seated at first, but as I continued, studying became a part of my daily routine.

​

The atmosphere at the library is conducive to studying for everyone, which motivates me to work hard. What's more, visiting the library allows me to have some time to myself. I can organize my day and plan for the month ahead. On weekends, my family gathers to enjoy packed lunches and we use the library as a gathering place.

​

The library offers all of these benefits, and my family and I have been visiting four times a week for the past five years.
