But he is a very insecure person. In primary school, he never even answered a question in class. Once, the school organized a swimming competition for students, and he stood on the riverbed, trembling and afraid to take a step forward.
Mother was very angry when she learned the news. Although she had just had an operation and was weak, she took the child to the river and said, "jump." He hurried back in fear: "I haven't practiced swimming, I'm afraid." Mother patted him on the shoulder and said patiently, "son, you have to understand that many times we can't succeed because we are bound by experience." I can't swim either, but with my courage and perseverance, I will succeed. " With that, he took off his shoes and jumped into the water.
His heart immediately tightened like a string. For one second, two seconds ... five seconds, the brave mother miraculously floated up after being choked by the water several times.
"So, son, what is your dream now?" Mother came up wet and said.
without hesitation, he said, "I want to go to college and find a good job." Mother nodded with relief, and then said earnestly, "Then, son, you should work hard for it and make your dreams and courage grow a little bit every day."
he nodded with tears in his eyes.
at the age of 17, he went rafting with three classmates. Unexpectedly, there was a storm on the way, and the swift river quickly deviated their rubber boat from its original route and ran to a branch river on the left. Several students were scared to cry. One of them was a local, and even screamed loudly: "There is a rocky hill ahead, what should I do?" He calmly directed another classmate to paddle hard to the shore, and finally got out of danger with great efforts. Later, a classmate asked him, "Aren't you afraid of the edge of life and death?" He said fearlessly, "I'm not afraid, because I have dreams and courage."
at the age of 18, he met Park Yong-yong, a leader of JYP Agency and a senior music producer. When he told the news to his mother, she asked, "Son, what is your dream now?" He replied without hesitation: "Be the top artist in Asia." But the mother couldn't see him realize his wish and died in the hospital soon. Her last words to the child were: "Take care of your sister and realize your dream."
His mother's death was a great blow to him. He knelt in front of her portrait more than once and vowed, "Practice hard and become a first-class singer."
In 22, he released a solo album, which won almost all the South Korean media newcomer awards. Since then, he has been out of control and has participated in many Asian tours, which is widely loved by people.
He is RAIN, who recently won the Presidential Medal on the 45th Savings Day. Today, he has become the "King of Heaven" in the eyes of young people with his powerful exquisite dance and fresh music style.
When reviewing the road to growth, he said with mixed feelings: "My mother taught me from an early age that success depends not on experience. I always remember it firmly and am working hard for it, not for anything else, just to make my dream grow a little bit every day. So every year, my mother asked me about my dream, and I had different answers. I persisted, so I succeeded. "
