My father's 33rd marathon competition, "Hyojeong, Life is Marathon."

My father told me, "Hyojeong, Life is Marathon."

Today, 16.03.2014 was my father's 33rd marathon competition in his life.
I still vividly remember, what father told me when I was young.

"Hyojeong, In marathon, going first from the starting point does not mean that you would finish this long race. You do not have to run fast,  just run slowly and steadily with your own pace. However, Never stop the race until you enter to the finishing line. Do not give up. Please remember, Life is a Marathon "

I respect my father. He completed "Ultra marathon" three times in his life, which means you need to run 100 kilometers within 40 hours without sleeping. He always showed me that we can do whatever with our own strong spirit. The reason that I could dare tried to finish Trans-Siberian train trip alone in the winter was also because I got an influence from my father's courageous and audacious aspect.

My father used to be a drummer of the band during his university years and he still plays the drum in a band for his past-time. The person who first introduced me the songs of Pink Floyd, Eagles, Scorpions, Beatles, CCR etc. was my father. We always, and still sing together.

He always told me, 
"You can do what you believe in and there is nothing that we cannot overcome."

My father dreams to have his own studio when he gets old, and play drum as much as he wishes.

My drummer father, you are such a great father and I am so lucky to have you as my father.

 I love you.
