Sejong the Great - Is he your man or not?

I think the Korean leaders should learn
from the Sejong the Great, if you want loved by people forever and you want be their man
forever then, you are not only sagacious
(not smart but sagacious, everyone can be smart but everyone can not be sagacious), effective and squawky clean. When you abused power for your enrichment
that is end of your story. Power is intoxication it is addictive. One of the
key ingredient of leadership is integrity, incorruptible, that gives you firm ground
for your standing. We are all corruptible
by nature there is no such thing clean
clean. But when you are in a leadership
position that not only gives you legitimacy but also credibility you can perform. That is why we were forced
read or forced to listen so many fairy tales and stories that revolved around what
is wrong what is right. That is the starting
point we think of the Just. While you are living in utter luxury and while
millions of people starving well that is not leading
but you committed 만고죄악”( ten thousand traitorous deadly). Leadership
is lonely and hard, in my point of view. Unconditional commitment of the position
your heart and soul. If you can not, you
should not be that leadership position or you can not be a leader. End of
the day you depend no one but yourselves. That is
why, Sejong the Great brothers all give up
for their kingships for his younger
brother, that is why he is Sejong the
Great, during his rules, not only he is the
creator of Hangul, but also one of the most prosper all around, - technology,
science, art, and economic and peacefullness etc... - Period in Korea
