The person who has been living together with his snowboard for 20 years, former national athlete Moo Hyun Choi. Now he is working step-by-step to achieve his goal as a peace activist.
"The phone call informing that one of my former comrades in the military died during training...”
The youths of Korea have some homework that people have been unable to solve. He really wished that he would never again have to see any of my friends lose their lives while training for war….
Even though it was inconvenient with his leg injuries, he still ran in the Pyeongchang Winter Olympic Torch Relay.
"The Pyeongchang Olympic Games Torch Relay spans a length of 2018km. They say that the 7,000 runners represent the total population of both South and North Korea. So, they have talked about how this is a “symbol of peace”. For this reason, I ran while thinking about peace.”
He is currently involved in various peace activities. At first, the people who came together for the same purpose as he was only three in total. So, the three of us got together and started doing work to help others.
From August to October, they went to Japan and were able to gather together with 100 university students, young people and hobbyists, who historically had some issues in their relationships, through sports activities. They were able to put aside those issues, so their passion become one, and through that passion the people were able to become one and through this peace was completed in his eyes.
Also, last October he was able to meet May El Khalil, the founder of the Beirut Marathon, which has been seen as a symbol of peace, and make an exchange. Now they are able to join in the work of peace through sports and through running.
"There is one homework problem that the youth and citizens of our country have yet to solve, which he believe is 'unification'."
“Through sports, many people can set aside their ideals, their thoughts, and all of those types of things, and with a united passion and heart peace can be achieved when people join in the work of peace as one.”
