We are living in an environment where today and tomorrow are unpredictable. Wars, earthquakes, tornadoes, tsunamis, and large-scale wildfires, along with abnormal weather conditions, are thoroughly destroying the history and culture of our lives until yesterday.
Today, let us remember and reminisce about this, recording the stories of history at this very place, sharing them with each other. Through this, we hope to deeply understand each other’s cultures and, once again, reflect on our identity as those who live here. May we not lose our direction in life and still pray to move towards a better future.
In this unstable present, where our precious moments until yesterday are being lost, let us examine our current direction through sharing stories and rethink our identity in this space. Through this process, we hope to overcome the fear of the future and pray to move towards a better future. The stories we share in our community will inspire us and instill hope for the future.”
