“Do something you're good at, like Son Heung-min!”
- 25.03.31 / 이정민
Kookmin University (President Jeong Seung-ryeol) invited Park Moon-sung, a football commentator, as a speaker for the 639th Thursday Special Lecture at the Kookmin University Academic Conference Hall on Thursday, March 27. Park Moon-sung, a commentator, gave a lecture on the topic of “Do what you do well, like Son Heung-min,” about the process of self-reliance and practice that college students experience as they take their first steps as adults.
Park explained that becoming independent is not just about being independent, but also about learning to understand oneself and doing one's best in a given environment. She also emphasized that practicing independence is important and that it is a necessary process for taking the first step as an adult.
He then mentioned three important factors in the process of exploring one's career and job: whether one likes it, whether one is good at it, and whether one can make a living from it. “Everyone is born with talent, so we need to discover and develop it,” he said. “It is more important to focus the effort on where and how to concentrate it than the effort itself, so even if you don't see a clear talent, you need to create your own strengths.”
Finally, he emphasized the importance of confronting the irrational as another important element of standing on one's own two feet, and concluded his lecture by saying, “In soccer, the most stupid striker is the striker who doesn't even try to shoot,” emphasizing the importance of the courage to take on challenges.
Meanwhile, Kookmin University's Thursday Special Lecture, which has been the first university in Korea to offer regular courses with weekly lectures by external speakers for the longest period of time, has hosted former President Roh Moo-hyun for the past 30 years. About 640 speakers from all walks of life in the fields of politics, society, science, and culture, including the late Cardinal Kim Su-hwan, writer Yu Si-min, film director Park Chan-wook, National Assembly Speaker Chung Sye-kyun, and U.S. Ambassador to South Korea Mark Lippert, took the podium.
