The phrase "pay it forward" captures the spirit of the potential impact Korea Foundation fellows have/can have in and on society. Yet, in all seriousness, being fortunate (and well-prepared) to receive a research fellowship can be an awesome responsibility. In the film Dead Poets Society, the Robin Williams character, an English professor, says: "No matter what anybody tells you, words and ideas can change the world."

1994), Captain Jean-Luc Picard says: "Someone once told me that time was a predator that stalked us all our lives. I rather believe that time is a companion who goes with us on the journey and reminds us to cherish every moment, because it will never come again. What we leave behind is not as important as how we've lived. After all Number One, we're only mortal." In addition, Jack Nicholson's character in Stanley Kubrick's The Shining (1980) reminds us that: "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy." Hence, pay it forward while you can by having fun too! This is an important aspect of living that helps us relieve stress and temporarily forget all of our worries. Speaking of Korea Foundation fellows having fun, one of the memorable highlights of 2005 was the Autumn Fellows three-day cultural field trip (November 3-5) to Jeju-do (Jeju Island). Each day of the field trip to Jeju-do was jam-packed with diverse activities, ranging from watching a breathtaking acrobatic show with daredevil motorcycle racers in a wire cage, eating fresh-gilled fish while overlooking the scenic beach and touring one of the longest lava caves in the world, to riding excited horses and learning at the Jeju Peace Museum about the history of the military tunnels built during the colonial period.
May the force be with you. I suppose you made a few tremendous focuses in features too. Excellent task.. Its such as you read my thoughts! Looking ahead to read such informed articles. On display in the museum's largest room is a fascinating collection of almost a 1,000 artifacts from the colonial period, including Japanese military uniforms, various building tools, and weapons, as well as an array of documents (official Gazette of the war and industrial articles) published by the ministries of the Government General of Chosen. Actually, all of the activities (too numerous to mention) were special, including hiking on Udo (Cow Island), and visiting the Folklore and Natural History Museum and Hallim Park - a 27,000-square-meter botanical garden. The museum is located at a highly strategic site where the Japanese forces were stationed during World War II. The photos serve as a vivid reminder for all of humanity to seek reconciliation and prevent war on the Korean peninsula and everywhere else in the world. Take someone out for Korean food and/or display a few scenic photos of Korea in your office or study carrel.
Invite a few people over for a Korean film night. Finally, after resurfacing, Yi Young-geun gives a moving speech about how important the site is for Koreans, Japanese, and all others around the world.

However, the visit to the Jeju Peace Museum stands out above all, because it enlightened us and reminded us to pay it forward - that is, to face responsibility for the future.
