“I just want to take off my mask and return to my normal routine”

This is a common answer when asked,’What kind of year do you want to be in 2021?’ to the 2009, 1997, and 1985 children in the year of the new year of the year 2021 (辛丑年). Last year, the entire people had a difficult time due to the novel coronavirus infection (Corona 19). So, I hope that the new year will be different. We have heard the stories of the cows who have passed the year 2020 and reach 2021.

97 years old in their twenties, “If the road to the sky opens again”

Born in 2009, Bona Kim (12), who became a 6th grader this year, described last year as “like an endless vacation.” Kim Yang said, “Last year, I only met my friends through KakaoTalk messenger, and I couldn’t do a lot of activities. I hope this year, I want to take off my mask and go around with my friends and do a lot of cooperative activities.”

Born in 1997, who turned 24 this year alone, said that he was regretful for not fulfilling the plan he had made last year. Konkuk University Electronics Department Lee Jung-hwan is planning to attend an overseas internship in the Netherlands last year, but he had to give up because of Corona 19. Mr. Lee said, “I am in the fourth grade this year, so I have to jump right into the job front, but I am upset that I did a lot of activities that I could have done in the third grade last year.” “I hope the day I go abroad without worrying as before.”

During the Corona 19 pandemic, 24-year-olds who were serving in the military had a particularly strong desire for’vacation’. Sang-byeong Chae-mo, who was enlisted in December 2019 and has not been on vacation for the second month, said, “I came to the Air Force because I said that I could use the vacation often, but because I couldn’t take the vacation, my service period was shortened by itself. I want to, and I try to exercise harder while I can’t go on vacation.”

Born in 30s and 85, “I hope to restore income and health”

The 85-year-olds who spent 2020 as heads of their 30s regarded the recovery of the economy most importantly. Kim Yun-mi, who runs a Pilates center in Unyang New Town, Gimpo, Gyeonggi-do, lost 90% of sales due to an order to ban indoor sports facilities last year. Kim, who opened another branch last year, said, “We will try to make a breakthrough by reducing the expanded business again and increasing private lessons for less than 4 or 5 people.” He also said, “Even in the house in Seoul where I lived on a jeonse, I was kicked out because the landlord wanted to live on my own, but I was living on a monthly rent.” I hope things go well there.”

Kim Young-in, who was born in Incheon in 85 years, will be born in March. Although he is a son born in a year after his first daughter born in January last year, Mr. Kim is sorry for his children and his wife. He said, “I was scheduled to get a full-time job at the gym, but Corona 19 broke out and I turned to a freelancer. He said, “I have no income at the moment,” and said, “I hope that income will recover even enough to feed my family this year.”

Some 85-year-olds gave priority to health. Jeong-ah, who runs a practical music academy in Anyang, Gyeonggi-do, says’health’ is the best. Jeong said, “I had plans for marriage and pregnancy last year, but everything was postponed due to Corona 19, and the academy was closed four times.” “I am in a state of taking antidepressants because of this series of events, and I am taking antidepressants. I hope that I will be healthy next year. I said. He added, “I already miss the time when I was taking classes face-to-face with students.”

On the other hand, President Moon Jae-in said in his New Year’s address, “I will repay you with a’daily recovery’. President Moon said, “I am deeply grateful to the people who practiced win-win while struggling to face the unprecedented reality. I will never let go of one person’s hand and walk with the people until everyone’s lives are free from Corona 19.”
