“What is that guy?” “The reaction was exactly that when’Seo Taiji and the children’ debuted for the first time.” Because it’s new music that didn’t exist before.”

’30 Singer’ is the topic of Jangan. This is Singer Lee Seung-yoon appearing in the JTBC audition program’Singer Gain’. When he sang Lee Hyo-ri’s’City Chit Bang Bang’ in his own style, the judges’ seats were upset. Why? Singer No. 30’s music was not trapped in the existing paradigm. It was difficult to attach a name tag in this or that genre. Still, he beat the audience’s chest and wet the heart.

It was the judges who were embarrassed. Jury Chairman Yoo Hee-yeol said that singer No. 30 was asking questions to the judges upside down. What is the question? I felt it was the essential question,’What is music?’

Singer No. 30 has’freedom’ in the song. The wings of the wild are not trapped in any frame, formula, or gaze. It is’my own voice’ that he spits out while flapping its wings. It is a protoplasm that wriggles inside, not trapped in the paradigm created by others. Watching it reminded me of dinner a few years ago.

It was a small restaurant in Hapjeong-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul. There, I met Pastor Jae-cheol Lee and his wife (CEO Jeong Ae-ju of Hongseongsa). At the time, when surveys were conducted on’the pastor the seminarians most want to meet’, Pastor Jae-cheol Lee was always ranked first. He was a person who received respect from the religious world for his deeply resonant spirituality and transparent, selfless church management. After retirement from retirement, I went to the 560m altitude of Geochang, Gyeongsangnam-do, and lived with my wife. It was very different from pastors who held the title of’Elder Pastor’ and continued to exert influence over the church after retirement.

Watching’Singer Gain’, I quickly became a fan of singer No. 30. I knew later. The fact that his father is none other than Pastor Jae-cheol Lee. Really, I was startled at first. And soon he nodded. Ah, the freedom of singer No. 30 had its roots. I saved it.

That day, Pastor Jae-cheol Lee brought up a story about his child with dumplings and naengmyeon in front. “The second child is playing YouTube alone, and the third child is playing music. During the winter vacation of high school 2, the youngest learned sketches for a while and suddenly said that he would go to art school. I am studying art now.” Even then, Singer Lee Seung-yoon, who was no. 30 singer, was eating bread wet with tears as an unknown singer.

What surprised me at the time was the story of my second son. This is Lee Seung-guk, the elder brother of Singer No. 30. It was during summer vacation in high school. My second son, Seung-guk, went to a camp in England for a month. By the way, I saw victory in a British school very well. I made an offer that “I will study for one year for free”.

Pastor Jaecheol Lee agreed. Instead, I put conditions. “You must come back in a year.” Seungkuk also agreed. So, I studied while attending a British school for one year. But a year later, the British school made an offer again. “Please let Seung-guk continue to study at our school until he graduates. All necessary expenses, including tuition, will be provided by the school. And we will take responsibility and send it to Oxford University.”

What if we had an offer like this? “Thank you!” Pastor Jae-cheol Lee’s judgment was different. I told the British school: “Thank you for the suggestion, but my family values parents and children living together more importantly.” I refused so. When Pastor Lee called, he said that his son Seung-guk also readily accepted it, saying, “Yes, I’m going.”

At the Hapjeong-dong restaurant, I asked Pastor Jae-cheol Lee a few questions. It was a decision full of question marks in many ways.

Why did you tell me to come back from England?

“I think there is something more important than an external specification in a person’s life. I think that is the person’s character, character, and courtesy. I think such things are cultivated while living with family members in the house. It would be nice if you graduated from Oxford University. Moreover, the school said they would pay for high school tuition. However, there is something more important than these external specifications. When a child walks his or her own life after graduating from high school, I think the time spent with the family will be more important.”

What is the most important thing in your child’s education.

“There is something that children have emphasized since childhood. ‘Let’s go the right path by thinking right, acting right with the right heart.’ It can be said to be a kind of family discipline. This is the general point.”

Then are there any particulars?

“There are four specifics to make the general talk. First, be self-reliant. Whatever you do, do it yourself. Even if you make a mistake. That way, you will become a person who helps others later, and if you cannot become self-reliant, you will become a person who is parasitic for life. So I let the kids decide everything for themselves. The second is courtesy. In all relationships, courtesy is the top priority. Don’t you also hate people who are not polite? You have to be a polite person. The third is organization. You shouldn’t let someone else clear the place you’ve been through. Fourth, last, whatever I do, it must be service or service for someone.”

The first topic is’self-reliance’. What will a child grown up like that have?

“It’s’your own soul’.”

On that day, Pastor Jae-cheol Lee said, “It is his own soul.” It was said that the person who did anything by himself, even the person who made mistakes himself, eventually has’the soul of his own.’ Watching the stage of Singer No. 30, this word came to mind all the time. A singer who sings with his own voice, his own dance, his own soul. Singer No. 30 replied when asked by the host because he did not know what to call such a genre. “No. 30! is.” It sounded like this to me. “My own soul!”

What was the current situation of the second son, Lee Seung-guk, who returned to Korea? He is currently working as a’Power YouTuber’. The number of subscribers to’Genius Lee Seung-guk’, a YouTube channel dealing with popular culture including movies, is about 300,000. At the dinner table in Hapjeong-dong, there were about 50,000 subscribers. Seung-guk Lee recently signed an exclusive contract with JTBC Studio.

Pastor Jae-cheol Lee has only four sons. The eldest son is a lawyer. After attending POSCO E&C, he resigned himself, went through law school, and is currently working as a lawyer. The youngest son is studying art. This story was also very interesting.

The youngest was in the second year of high school. “I will be in high school next year, so my exam life will be bleak. I need a window to breathe,” so my mother let me learn sketches. When you’re having a hard time studying, take your breath away. I took a month of sketching lessons from an art student. It was purely a hobby. But at the end of winter vacation, the youngest son came and said. “I want to do art.” I have never attended an art academy for an art college entrance exam.

Pastor Jae-cheol Lee and his wife said, “Okay. First of all, do the same study you were doing.” So I graduated from high school. After graduation, my youngest son left for a language study abroad in Germany. School fees and living expenses were not very small. I learned German by myself, and I looked around by myself. Then, a year later, I entered the University of Leipzig, Germany. The University of Leipzig is renowned for its fine arts.

At that time, I remember the words of my wife Jung Ae-ju while showing the sketches drawn by my youngest son on a mobile phone.

“When the youngest was studying in Germany, he drew a pigeon on the road. I like this picture much better than the pictures I drew after admission. What is it? There is something of its own that is rough but untamed. I also told this to the youngest.”

Pastor Jae-cheol Lee emphasized that the education of children should be’circle (circle)’ rather than’straight line’.

Why is it a circle, not a straight line.

“Most people raise their children on a straight line. But there is absolutely no happiness on a straight line. Why is that? No matter how far you go on a straight line, there is another person who is ahead of me. So, on a straight line, there will always be someone who falls behind at any point.”

So how about a circle.

“The child should stand on a 360-degree circle, not on a straight line. From there, I can walk the path I want. The path on a straight line is the path someone has already taken. Go out on the circle. It’s a road no one has gone. On that road, I always win first place.”

Singer Lee Seung-yoon is singing in’Singer Gain’. There is something in his song that has not been tamed by the existing paradigm. Pastor Jae-cheol Lee previously called it’your own soul’. [사진 JTBC]

A soul not trapped in a paradigm. Untamed soul. Your own soul. Still, a life that respects character, character, and courtesy. Pastor Jae-cheol Lee said, “Put your child on a circle, not a straight line.” The freedom and soul that Singer No. 30 gave out, had a unique root there. There was a song of a person walking on a circle rather than a straight line.
