In Korea, when I was a high school student, I was filled with energy of youth and had possibility that can do anything that I wanted. Ironically, however, it was impossible to do anything at the same time. My life was not my own thing and there was almost nothing I could decide for myself in the frame that my parents and the society had made. Bearing burden to win competition, without knowing even I was in, I couldn’t do anything there. There was no confidence to fight against my parents, the society, and the horrible reality. Instead, just imagination was started by me. Thinking about myself after 10 years, 5 years, and 3 years, I could feel happiness and freedom that couldn’t be found in reality and began to fall into it. Immersing to think of future more and more, I even made a specific time table for that. The imagination world was built as I dreamt and there was endless freedom as a creator of my own world. By running away from the real world, the situation was getting worse as I was immersing in that, and finally I stopped the dangerous journey. However, the experience remained a huge image and my interest toward imagination has picked up. |
