Local Damhwa Seonchang (Zen Window of Damhwa) recommends, Before coveting other positions, do your best for the one you currently have
Diplomacy Journal Kim Tae Yeon | There is a famous Korean saying, Nae Koga Seok Ja, which literally translates, “My own nose is three feet long.” It is used to mean that one is so preoccupied with one's own urgent situation that one has no time to look after the circumstances of the others." However, looking at today’s politics and public service, we need to reflect on this saying a little differently. It is not uncommon to see a single person holding multiple titles and having their name listed in various institutions and organizations. Of course, holding multiple posts cannot be considered w

Diplomacy Journal Kim Tae Yeon | If you don’t know, ask; the answer lies our in the field. The saying Gyeongdang Munno (耕當問奴) conveys the meaning that to do a task properly, one must perform it firsthand and ask someone who knows it well. We often assume that those who are highly educated know everything. However, there is wisdom in the world that cannot be learned solely from books. A farmer who has touched the soil his entire life knows the conditions of the fields well, and a fisherman who has spent many years at sea knows the changes.
