Hanyang University has an entrance ceremony for new students at the Olympic Gymnasium in Seoul Campus, Seongdong-ku, in Seoul. Jung II-woo had been attending this university since 2008, welcomed the students. I found a video, translated to Vietnamese in YouTube of the event. And a few photos follow it after.
Cr. Hanyang University.
Transcript: Cr. Ilwoostory Japan, translated to English (with some modifications) using Google Translate.
At the beginning being given directions:
Il: Where should I go?
Clerk: Over there.
Il: Oh… there.
At the Ceremony:
“2013 Hanyang University Entrance Ceremony”
Moderator: First of all, I think that women will be delighted. He is an actor. Who is it?
Il appeared.
Moderator: Well, now it’s the same gate. It is Jung Il! Please give a hand of applause and welcome him.
Ile: Hello everyone. It is Jung Il who entered the Theater Film Department in 2008.
Ile: As you are going to be a university student from now on,
There are also seniors and I think that we can do a lot for the juniors in the future,
I think that it would be nice for new Hanyang students to greet people like this (seniors, students with more experience) before hand.
That way, I think that you can have a more enjoyable college life.
Congratulations again, on your entrance.
Moderator: Yes, please give another hand of applause again. Thank you very much.
Ile: Thank you very much.
Out in the front steps:
Ile: Hello everyone, is Jung Il. I came today to celebrate the entrance ceremony of the freshman of my alma mater. Actually when I came back to this way, I remembered things at the time of my enrollment … It’s a nice thing.
A new semester will begin and among you there are students entering.
I’m glad that you will continue to study hard and always be happy.Thank you very much.

What an angel! Talking about angels, this past Sunday, Mother’s Day, I went to enjoy an exhibit of Fra Angelico at the Isabella Stewart Gardner museum. Fra Angelico is one of my favorite painters of angels. He was an Italian friar and painter born in 1395. He started as an illuminator… doing illuminated tiny paintings on bibles and religious texts. I just realized that the word illustrator comes from the word illumination! How did I not notice that before!
Back to Fra Angelico, his paintings are characterized by the use of a lot of gold and royal blue. This is perhaps his most famous painting: “The annunciation.” He painted various ones, but this one housed in the Prado Museum (Madrid, Spain) is my favorite! Angel Gabriel is so beautiful! The texture on his golden wings! Did you know that Angel Gabriel exists as a messenger in three of the major religions of the world?
I saw this version this weekend:
And so many gorgeous angels…
This painting coming up was so incredible… Fra Angelico actually etched rays all around Jesus and Mary so as you moved the light would shine in a circular way around them.
This museum has a really lovely gardens so I …delighted in them:
Amazing the photos one can get with a phone now! (These are with an iPhone 8) These photos coming up are some of reflections and light I took.
About light, last I will share this song I’m into a lot lately… it makes me so happy … it’s about light…and life… sang by Libera, arranged by Robert Prizeman and orchestra.
Eternal Light
By Akira Senju.
Thoughts of love surround you
Everywhere around you
May your heart discover
All the magic and the wonder
Inside every moment
Deeper than the ocean
I just want to show you
All the beauty and the glory
In this clear eternal light
This miracle of light
You will never lose your way
Because the eternal light will find you
And guide you
Life is but a journey
Tides are always turning
Seasons come and go here
But you’ll never be alone here
In this clear eternal light
This miracle of light
You will never lose your way
Because the eternal light will find you
And guide you every day
Ahh, ahh, ahh
There are times of long and sleepless nights
But I will bring you peace and hope
Shining like a rainbow
In this clear eternal light
This miracle of light
You will never lose your way.
This eternal light will find you
To shine its guiding light on you.
In this clear eternal light
This miracle of light
You will never lose your way
This eternal light will find you
And guide you in all life
Ahh, ahh, ahh

When I hear this in the morning, I feel a sense of purpose and joy. Like everything I live is meant to be lived. Most of all, I am so thankful for my life. May the light guide us and protect us always! Protect this incredible planet Earth floating in the depth of space around a sun in a galaxy far far away… a miracle! A miracle we easily forget as we can’t see beyond the sky…
