The Story Behind the Korean Idiom "Time is Gold"
Today, I'd like to talk about this time.
I received thorough time management education from a young age.
Arrive at least 5 minutes early for appointments
Don't be lazy when taking breaks
Wake up early
Don't be "sewol-a ne-wol-a" when doing something, etc.
- Sewol-a ne-wol-a - a figurative expression meaning slow actions or work processing
I think this education helped me a lot.
During my school days, I was a diligent and hardworking student, and I rarely had any mishaps like missing the bus.
But the problem is that because I was pressured by time like this, I also ended up pressuring the people around me.

I would feel upset if my friend was even a little late for an appointment, and I would feel frustrated when I saw someone "mung-geujeok-georeoda."
- Mung-geujeok-georeoda - to act lazily without moving forward
Anyone can have their own leisure time as long as they don't cause great harm to others.
So, after I became an adult, I try to think calmly.
But I still have to arrive 5 minutes early at the appointment place.
So what's become more leisurely? Now I'm okay if my friend is a bit late for an appointment.
I learned how to take a walk around and wait.
The idiom "Time is gold" is very true, but it doesn't seem right to "live chasing time."
