Pledge Engraved in a Tree

Jae-Yoon Lee
In the backyard I thought
About where I should write
My pledge, on stone or on tree
Choosing between the stone and tree
I engraved it on the tree
Not knowing if it would be
erased I thought I would grow
together with that pledge
One day, 30 years later
I suddenly thought of the pledge
and returned to that backyard
The writing was higher up on the trunk
and was illegible
Though I would never know what was written there
Every year I always returned to that tree

The 20th century flew off over the horizon at full speed.
Te 21st century was expected to slow down moderately but
the visual impact of a current global community is like the
earth-shaking rumble. Te Rotary Korea Magazine celebrated
its 50th Anniversary in October. Te magazine has been busy
covering stories suitable for the Rotarys humanitarian subject
area. It continues to document Rotary history and become
part of it. Te magazine feels a sense of satisfaction for having
played a vital role in the membership growth of Rotary in
Korea to 60,000 ranked fourth worldwide and contribution
increments to become third in the world.
The magazine has published news stories on the Rotary's
top philanthropic goal to eradicate polio worldwide. The
stories on the major philanthropic goals of Rotary in Korea
that include giving Mongolian children with heart disease
a new life, helping Vietnamese children with cleft lip and
palate, supporting blood banks for pregnant Nepalese women,
and water development and literacy programs to help people
in developing countries in Southeast Asia, have also made the
news. Te Rotary Korea has adopted news values that attract
both internal and external audiences. Te important goal for
the reporters is to give readers the news they want and fnd
interesting, such as a story on Rotarians lending a helping
hand to a school located at a remote area of the Andes in
South America.
People living in industrialized countries are more likely to
feel loneliness and their neighborhoods can be considered in
an isolated way. According to the 2012 Gallup World Poll
covering 148 countries, South Korea is the 97th happiest
country in the world. Te OECD survey of 34 industrialized
nations shows South Koreans are among the unhappiest
people in the world, positioned 32nd in the organizations
happiness index. While South Koreas economy is one of the
world's largest, South Koreans are unhappy. Te basic reason
for a very low level of happiness is the absence of the spirit of
devoted service, just like Rotarys service above self.
As South Koreas per capita income grew by 280 percent
bet ween 1970 and 2010, Rotary in Korea has become
fourth in membership and third in contributions among the
Rotary countries worldwide over the past five decades. This
background is 60,000 Rotarians in Korea have played part in
growth in South Koreans contributions rates of GDP.
The success of Rotary in Korea depends on dynamic
leadership that cares enough to understand and recognize
the organizations ability to cope with hardship. Te time has
come for the first generation of Rotary leadership in Korea
to let incoming second-generation leaders handle hurdles in
many years to come.
Rotary in Korea endured through the Japanese occupation
and the Korea War, but a state of discord overshadows more
than a decade of extraordinary prosperity and membership
growth to 60,000. Filled with the desire of Korean Rotarians
to see the first Korean to become the president of Rotary
International, Dong Kurn Lee took office in July 2008 as
president of Rotary International. It is grateful that Seoul
will host the Rotary International Convention in 2016. But,
we need to face up squarely to a negative image of Rotary
being built in Korea. Leaders blinded by their own self
righteousness and bigotry will eventually sufer a defeat. We
cannot help people defeated by their own self righteousness,
but the problem is they are the ones who cause negative
impact on districts, zone and even RI. Our focus should not
be on personal glory but on more than one billion people in
the world living on less than $1 a day, who desperately need a
helping hand.

TRF Trustee Chair Message
Better, more sustainable service
programs for more needy people
In the early part of this century, Rotary International
and The Rotary Foundation have set the two priorities
unprecedented i n the histor y of the organi zation for
improving the services and reforming some programs at the
same time. These priorities include Rotary's commitment
to the ongoing global polio eradication initiative and major
changes to Te Rotary Foundation grants. Polio already has
been reduced by more than 99 percent since 1985 and the
foundation's new grant model successfully went into efect for
all districts on July 1 of last year after the Future Vision pilot
districts had thoroughly tested the new grant model for 3
years. General Secretary of Rotary International, John Hewko,
said that Rotary International and The Rotary Foundation
were vigorously paving the way for the successful launch of
the Foundations new grant model. He also predicted bright
future for Rotary and said that during D.K. Lees tenure of
service as TRF Trustee Chair in 2013-14, D.K. probably
would ride in a Cadillac running smoothly. However, we still
need to make sure non-pilot districts clearly understand the
new grant structure and become cooperative. Nevertheless, it
is fortunate that the majority of districts have positively taken
part in a successful attempt on the new grant model.
We stand at yet another defning moment in the history of
Te Rotary Foundation. We have to ensure that we maintain
the focus we need to achieve our goals. Our success depends
on us. We need active participation and support from clubs,
districts, and the senior leaders of Rotary International
more than ever. We have new approach to carrying out the
work. Non-pilot districts may consider the new grant model
significant transformation. From Rotarys senior leadership
to club members, we all are still at an early stage in our
understanding of the new grant model. We admit that no one
has all the answers. As the Korean proverb goes, "Even if you
know the way, ask one more time. Tis means that no matter
what your self-confdence level is right now, you may improve
it by asking questions. Tere are too many things we want to
learn and change. The Rotary International theme for this
year is Engage Rotary, Change Lives. I think this is a very
appropriate theme for the goals of Te Rotary Foundation.
The global eradication of polio is Rotary's top priority
and will remain the top priority until this deadly disease is
eliminated from the face of the earth. Until we make the
dream of a polio-free world a reality, we must keep fghting
against the disease by all means.
The Rotarys new grant model, often called the Future
Vision Plan, has received exceptionally positive feedback from
a considerable number of clubs and districts. Te simplifed
grant structure has made it easier for clubs to apply for
Foundation grants, and we have already seen the benefits
of focusing our monetary efforts on sustainable projects in
Rotary's Six Areas of Focus.
Te Rotary Foundation has a simple motto: Doing Good
in the World. Te new grant model was designed to increase
the efectiveness of helping more needy people, the long-term
sustainability, and the work capacity. Our passion and desire
are the driving forces that lead each project to success, attract
more prospects to join Rotary, and make a diference in their
lives. The new grant model has not only brought enormous
changes but has presented new challenges to some Rotarians.
With the right support, encouragement, and positive role
modeling, the best thing you can do is to help your district
members understand the changes.
Lastly, I wish everyone all the best for the new year. I
hope that you all engage Rotary and change life through the
foundation in the new year.
Dong Kurn (D.K.) Lee
Trustee, The Rotary Foundation

DIRECTOR'S MESSAGE
To me Rotary is to dream big. Something that would not
be possible to do alone can be achieved because it is done
through Rotary. Polio Plus is the perfect example. No one
thought it was doable, and everyone who had any knowledge
and/or insight in vaccinating against polio advised the Rotary
leaders that it would be a futile attempt and was seriously
concerned that Rotary would fall on its face and bite the dust.
It was but a naive utopian dream and will regret for getting
involved, the medical professionals concurred. But the leaders
saw the possibility from what Rotarians had experienced in
Philippines.
Now, we are at a point where the end is in sight. Rotary is
about to make history. Tat is all due to the discerning eyes,
determination, passion and perseverance the Rotarians had.
It could have been easy to conclude by saying that it was a
good exercise and drop it and try to forget about it. But
not Rotary. The Rotarians did not give up. Rather, their
only concern was to meet the promise they had made to the
children of the world. Any other choice have never occurred
to them.
The Korean Rotarians grabbed a dream to fight yellow
dust, an unbearable nuisance also a pollutant carrying health
hazard, and to combat desertifcation by planting wind break
forest in the Gobi Desert. All 17 Korean district governors
of the Rotary centennial year had committed to work on the
seemingly impossible deed. Unforeseen harsh environmental
conditions augmented with logistic and communication
difficulties encroached. And a life crippling automobile
accident had occurred, which could have set the project back.
However, the Korean Rotarians persisted for fve consecutive
years with renewed prowess.
To foster sustainability, income generating programs such
as agricultural cooperative, orchard and nursery were added.
Vocational school in the area was brought in to work on the
site as its hands-on training ground. Te second year project,
where an indigenous fruit bearing tree called Hyppophe was
planted in between wind break trees, was expanded to over
400 hectares and became the largest orchard in the nation
with a juice processing factory in the premise.
Te total amount of USD1,372,840 was fnanced by Rotary
and 337,170 trees plus orchards farms and nurseries have been
established on 270 hectares of land.
Each site was managed by Rotary for three years then, it
was contracted to a community cooperative, agricultural
cooperative, vocational school or a regional non governmental
institution with a condition to add at least one more tree every
year on top of what was handed over.
So far, neither yellow dust subsided nor desertification
halted, but Mongolians now have evidences to prove that
things can grow in desert areas and have conviction to peruse
more actively what was once considered impossible. The
Mongolian government has announced a 2,700km stretch
of "Green Wall" to be carried out as a long term national
agenda.
None of this could have been done by one person, but was
possible only because Rotarians have collectively put forth
their concerted efort. Tat makes the diference in making
dream come true and insurmountable to be realized. And
Rotarians are committed to continue to engage and change
lives and transform the world for a better place to live. Such is
the spirit of Rotary we love.

Past RI Director Kyu Hang Lee
operates a dining room
for the needy
Past RI Director Kyu Hang Lee and his wife, Hee Sun Park, has provided free black-bean-sauce noodles (Jajangmyeon) lunch
to the indigent elderly living alone and poor neighbors twice a week at the dining room called Anyang-East Rotary Club Service
Center opened two years ago. The dining room, located at the frst foor of a commercial building and equipped with 6 tables
and 24 chairs, has a constant stream of visitors when it opens on Wednesdays and Fridays. Park and her volunteer team
prepare and serve food. Lee is also busy serving the visitors with food at this crowed place. We had more than 160 visitors
today. Without help from the members of Anyang-East Rotary Club, its impossible to operate this place and provide food
to so many visitors Park says. KRW 2 million to 3 million for the monthly operation budget is heavy a burden but its very
rewarding.
Rotarians are architects of the future if we act on our commitment to service. Let us build
on our principles, Past Rotary International President Bhichai Rattakul once said. Past RI
Director Kyu Hang Lee has been observant of Rattakuls bottom up approach, Past RI
President Bill Huntleys notion of unchanging principles, and Past RI President Luis V. Giays
magnificent brick by brick visionary leadership. He says, I was deeply inspired by the
keynote address of then-RI President Giay at the Rotary International Assembly in Anaheim in
1996. At the assembly a brick was placed on each table for 530 district governors elect from
all over the world. The year's RI theme Build the Future with Action and Vision was inscribed
on each brick. Unlike someone who didnt want to bring the brick back home because of its
weight, I wrapped it up and brought it back home. That is my Rotary moment.

Beauty of Korea
World of Ink Wash
Painting According to
SoSan Park Dae Sung
Drawings of Park Dae Sung, a master artist of ink wash painting, show
that he seems often to set puzzles that have hidden barcodes. His
natural genius crosses so many disciplines that he epitomizes his literary
name of Sosan, which means a small mountain. He is one of the
leading artists of the Korean traditional painting of the era.
Park displayed his India ink brushwork representing the
narrative illustration of beautiful landscape of the Korean
peninsula at the exhibition under the theme, Inf inite
Interpenetration, held at Gana Art Center in Seoul on
November 1-24. Parks landscape compositions presented the
traditions of the Korean painting with a great deal of visual
charm. Some of his paintings that received acclaim from the
media during his September exhibition in Turkey were also
displayed at the exhibition. He is the alter ego of Solguh, who
was one of the most intriguing personalities in the history
of the Silla Kingdom (B.C.57~A.D.935) and created the
magnifcent art. Gyeongju, capital of the Silla, continues to
be a constant source of inspiration for Park. Standing in front
of A Winter Scene of Bulguksa Temple (Bulguksa Temple
on a Snowy Day) which is 8 meters in length, you are able
to realize it is in every aspect a remarkable composition
with excellent use of perspective. For Hyunyul, known as
Parks grand masterpiece of his 50-year career, he formulates
the concept of the nature profoundly and diferently in this
composition, as if Gyeomjae Jeongseon showed the same
ideas in his masterpiece, Inwang Jesaekdo(A Scenes of
Inwangsan Mountain after Rain). With a closer look at this
composition, you would recognize that characteristics of his
nomadic lifestyle were the key ingredient of the monumental
painting in black and white.

Full of darkness is marching on unto everywhere
The sky is wide open as the thunder and lightning strike
seems like a bomb exploding with a fash of bright light. Te
volcano is spewing out lava and a violent windstorm in the
shape of a funnel cloud is reaching to the ground. It is like
you are witnessing the moment that the heaven and the earth
are being created. Tese natural phenomena are meticulously
present in Parks drawings. Parks mesmerizing masterpieces,
such as Black River, Cloud and Mist, Heaven, Earth
and Man, and A Dark Moon, are largely composed of his
energy, strength, passion, and love of nature.
Park draws his subjects with equality of warm and cold. His
ink wash paintings use tonality and shading achieved by
varying the ink density, the ink load, and pressure within a
single brushstroke. Parks unique brush strokes give beauty
to his artwork and depict the subjects outward and inner
qualities. The essence of the Korean traditional painting
emphasizes a technique that retains the momentum and the
sprit within the work, resulting in the painting appearing
powerful and an articulation of understanding the basic
pattern of the universe.
Art Critic Lee Ju Hyun says in Park exhibition reviews, Come
to think of oriental painting, pictures are drawn with the
painter's personality, not ink. At Istanbul-Gyeongju World
Culture Expo 2013 held in Turkey, Parks brushstroke work
diffusing the fragrance of Ink elevated the Koreas global
status and helped build the 21st Century Silk Road. As Park
A Winter Scene of Bulguksa Temple, 2013 (800cm x 252cm) Ink on paper
has taken the time for contemplation at the deep wooded
valley refecting the spirit of the Bronze Age and conducted
studies in humanities, we pay attention to his work.

Beauty of Korea
Buncheong Ceramics
and Abstraction
of Yoon Kwang-cho
At the village called Baram (wind) of Angang
County in Gyeongju, a city with over 1,000 years
of history, there is a potter who lives like the
wind. His name is Yoon Kwang-cho, who always
says, I set myself in motion. Author Han Soo-san
once described Yoon as a man who goes slipping
through like a handful of sand slipping through
fingers. The truth is that Yoon is a real professional
who has no desire for wealth, glory, power, and
materialistic success. He preferably wants to live
in the Baram Village where he can hear the wind
blow and experience joy in his life. When every
trace of worldly desire is washed from his heart,
Yoon feels closer to nature and natural rhythms.
Natural ventilation is employed to leverage freely
available resources such as wind and promote a
fragrance-free environment.
Buncheong, the innovative ceramic art,
and Yoon Kwang-chos artistic craftsmanship
Buncheong ceramics, the striking ceramic type produced
during the Joseon Dynasty, were made for members of
Royal family as well as ordinary people at the time. Some of
the words we often associate with Buncheong, the symbol
of Joseons naturalism and craftsmanship, are dynamic,
earthy, and informal. After using every technique employed
on Buncheong, Yoon prefers the three techniques from
Jeolla province, including Guiyahi (paintbrush), Jowha
(consonance), and Bakji (thin paper). Te Guiyahi technique
requires vivid tone of spots and lines marks on a surface
formed by a brush. The Jowha technique needs a bamboo
knife for scraping the brush marks on a surface done by the
Guiyahi technique to create images. Te Bakji technique is to
scrap a patterned ground formed by the Guiyahi technique.
Yoon particularly likes to use the Guiyahi echnique because
it can make the application of white slip and a coat of viscous
white clay stand out. Tis technique nurtures the spontaneous
character of ceramics. Brushstrokes of Guiyahi create efects
of windstorm and lively movement within the lines. It makes
the contour of the ceramic face cut a rug. Yoon has interest in
balancing a fne line between traditionalism and modernism,

order and disorder, technology and art, and disposition and
fermentation. He believes two conceptual insights into the
nature of the basic functions are inseparable. He cherishes
his belief in equality, one of the most fundamental beliefs
of Buddhism. He says, Buncheong is an innovation. We
admire Yoon because his works have their roots in a deeply
held religious faith. At the exhibition focusing on Buncheong
ware from the collection of Leeum, Samsung Museum of Art
Leeum, Samsung Museum of Art held at The Metropolitan
Museum of Art, New York in 2012, Yoons ceramic piece,
Chaos was also displayed. The museum houses Chaos
and introduces Yoon as leading ceramic artist of modern
Buncheong ware. In its review of Chaos, the work and its
title represent the moment of energetic chaos before the birth
of a new life. He has named some of his ceramic pieces, Chaos,
because of the intensity of his studies of Buncheong. Yoon
believes the formality of ceramic work just traces an outline
on the piece and ideas and expressions are the core of each
work.

Culture
Kimjang, the tradition of making and sharing of kimchi that
usually takes place in winter, was added to the UNESCO
Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity list on December 5,
2013.
According to The Intergovernmental Committee for the
Safeguarding of Intangible Cultural Heritage, kimjang
has voluntarily been passed through the generations
and represents the communal spirit of Koreans in winter,
solidifying their Korean identity.
Kimjang refers to the process of preparing large vats of
spiced and fermented cabbage and other vegetables with
Kimchi-making listed as
UNESCO heritage
a large gathering of family, friends or community members
before the start of winter and storing the kimchi vats
underground for fermentation. It has long been an essential
part of preparing for the long winter when fresh vegetables
are not readily available. Experts expect the designation will
secure kimjang a frm place in Koreans lives as the rather
long and labor-intensive process is rapidly being replaced by
purchasing kimchi produced in factories.
With kimjangs designation, Korea now has 16 items on
UNESCOs Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity List,
including the Royal Ancestral Rites and Ritual Music at
the Jongmyo Shrine, which was performed at memorial
ceremonies during the Joseon era; pansori, a traditional
Korean style of narrative song; falcon hunting and the
traditional folk song of Arirang.

Korean Food:
O-Jung: the five JUNGs
[ ] means right; honest.
As a human being, everyone who handles food is obligated to have a
right mind every step of the way, never straying from the right path,
and should follow reason and adhere to principles.
Te drawing of the character

as a way of marking the votes earned

in a vote counting (one stroke for one vote) may be a refection of the
peoples desire for an honest leader.
[ ] means clean.
In the old days, our mothers mothers used clean and pure water as an
offering to God when praying for something. Water is an important
ingredient in every dish and it is water that makes the flavor. When
handling food, ones mind should be as clean as clear water. What
clean water is to a good dish, genuine ingredients and devotion to food
are to our healthy future.
[ ] means straightforward; righteous.
Today, food safety is being seriously threatened by some greedy,
unscrupulous people and environmental pollution. Since they deal
with food, which has a direct impact on peoples health and lives, a
heightened sense of responsibility and stricter moral standards are
required of the people in the food business. As responsible members of
this profession, they must steer clear of any materialistic temptations and
stick to the principles that they had in mind from the beginning. Te
pursuit of honesty and righteousness and awareness of responsibility
and pride should always be the foundation of producing good and safe
food.
[ ] means neat; proper.
The neat and proper attributes in anything are favorable and
trustworthy values. When handling food, one should keep in mind the
value of neatness every step of the way. If the mind is breaking down on
the inside, it can never produce good food on the outside. Good food is
that which reveals an internal neatness of mind, rather than that which
uncovers an uneasy mind through fashy decorations. Neatness of mind
comes from selftrust, and only those who believe in themselves can have
a neat mind.
Platter of Nine Delicacies (Oh-Jeong-Sam-Mi)
This is one of the most popular appetizers in Korean
cuisine. This dish is served in a special platter that is
divided into nine sections. Each section is a different
finely chopped ingredient, such as vegetables, beef,
and abalone, resulting in a colorful and beautiful
presentation. Also, it is low in fat and high in protein.
This is great one course meal providing all the
nutrition you need a day.
Pan-fried Sweet Rice Cake
with Flower Petals (Hwajeon)
This is round, flat rice cake made of glutinous rice
flour, decorated with petals of colorful flowers. It is
often served with flower tea, adding great flavor to
the dish.
Stuffed and Steamed Seafood with Ginseng and
Omija (Insamomija Chapssal Haemuljjim)
Ginseng and Omija are perfectly matched. This dish is
widely consumed as a nutritional food to help prevent
dementia and improve memory.
Culture
41 2014 THE ROTARY KOREA
[ ] means straighten; set right.
In dealing with food, people should have nothing on their conscience
when they make, eat, and enjoy the food, but the reality of todays
culinary scene in Korea is anything but a clear conscience.
Blinded by self-interest and the desire for prestige, people tend to opt
for copying and imitating others rather than taking creative risks.
At culinary competitions, people are judged on and prized for their
personal connections and backgrounds rather than their excellence in
the cooking and presentation of food. To achieve the grand objective
of globalization for Korean food culture, such practices should be
corrected so that fair and square competitions can be guaranteed in
the future, and so that the Korean culinary circle can return to the right
track.
Sam-Mi: the three MIs
[mi]
refers to taste; favor.
We work to bring out the genuine, natural favor of ingredients.
[mi]
refers to beauty.
We work to make manifest the original beauty of food.
[mi]
refers to shine.
We work to make Korean food culture appeal to the world,
through continuous research and development. Korean

Natural White Food for Enhancing Immunity
Most of natural white food functions just like its color, white, to
clear our body. Detoxification, purification, enhancing immunity,
antiphlogistic effect, anticancer function and building stamina
are some of the effects of natural white food. In fact, natural
white food has preventive effects on the lifestyle-related diseases
like cancer, diabetes, and heart diseases. One thing to remember
when cooking natural white food is to minimize fire use and
seasoning to fully maintain the taste and nutrition of the food.
