The assignment which was given to our English B class was to watch the ‘Korea Got Talent’ which is a Korean program. The purpose of this program is to look for people who are talented in something such as dancing, singing or more several things. The video that I watched was about a deprived boy whose name is Choi Sung Bong. When I listened to his song ‘Nella Fantasia’, I was so impressive because he was extremely gifted at singing. He voice was enough to touch my heart already. In addition, when I heard about his story, I was deeply moved by his past. He told that he had been lived in terrible circumstances. When he was three years old, he was brought to the orphanage and he ran away from the orphanage at five because he got beaten by people. Since five years old, he slept on the stairs or public toilets and he sold gums to eke out an existence. Even if he had a hard time of living, he was able to overcome and the examiners cheered him.
Unhappily, he could not win the first unless he was in the second. He lost by a narrow margin of in this contest, but he announced that he is already satisfied that he could sing in front of the audience. He was just an ordinary boy and he was just born in a small country (South Korea) which is not really known as foreigners. However, this video started to spread out all over the world and many people started to watch him in the youtube and support him. Therefore, this situation is actually more valuable than winning.
After watching this video, I could look back into my life and reflect on myself. I did not realized that I expensed lots of money to buy things that all I want unless some things were unnecessary. I regret about my action and I really admire him. If I were him I would kill myself or I would live without any hope. He was just amazing and I cannot believe that the music was his treatment for healing himself. The music was a good remedy for him.
In my opinion, this video inspired me to live meaningful life. Also, he gives lessons to all people that ‘although you are poor do not give up and set your goals and go toward for your dream.’ He showed this lesson through this video.
