In 1996, a TV program called 'The Refrigerator of the Conscience' aired on MBC, which led to Koreans stopping at traffic lights to become routine. It was a miracle that there was a driver guarding the traffic lights at the time, but a miracle happened.
A small Tico car had stopped at the stop line of a quiet road in the early morning. Unbeknownst to them, a TV camera captured the moment when Korean comedian Lee Kyung-kyu rushed over to ask them, "Why did you obey the signal?" The response of the disabled couple was so touching. “I’m … always … on … guard.” Thus, the couple's good influence saved the broadcast, and traffic order was established.
Korean culinary professional, Baek Jong-won, always emphasized the principles: hygienic kitchen, delicious food, and reasonable prices through his 'Alley Restaurant' TV show episodes. Restaurants that embraced his principles were able to turn over a new leaf, and the customers cheered. Through Baek Jong-won’s program, trust in small restaurants in the alley was built up and the food culture was upgraded. In addition, products like the Pobangter pork cutlet gave customers a fresh impression of these types of restaurants.
Good influences are revealed throughout society by these shows. The main characters are very touching because they are ordinary people like drivers, chefs, and so on. Just imagine how much greater the amplitude of the thrill of good influences people of higher rank would give.
It would be a refreshing change to show the sons of high-ranking families taking the initiative in choosing the more dangerous and difficult military units for themselves. Instead of using the power of their influential parents just for their own benefit, wouldn’t it be nice if they shared their privilege with their needier neighbors?
Even though the military's superiors still treat the sons of high-ranking officials exceedingly well, they still want more benefits as they have an overambitious desire.
This excessive greed smears the parents' faces and spoils their future. They are cursed as the transmission from father to son on teachings that over-ambitiousness is not excessive.
They were born rich right from the beginning, so they have little chance from being thrown into the wilderness. Even if they are thrown there, they can get through much better. This is because of what they saw and learned from their parents was different from others.
Naturally and realistically, they are given more opportunities. So the day for their personnel inspection comes earlier than they expected. At that time, they should proudly show that they passed the confirmation hearing while remaining unspoiled and fresh. They have to grow up dreaming of such a role model. It is said that honor should be kept from a young age. It is a principle that applies to anyone, regardless of their rich and poor, high and low, all ranks and classes.
Now that we live in an Internet world, the flow of information has accelerated and there is nothing that can be hidden from the world. In particular, it is more difficult to hide power tripping, taking the more expedient way, and receiving preferential treatment. It was a long time ago that the chance of parents could cover up some embarrassing things for the most part.
When, who and where, everything is recorded now. If you search for what clothes you wore that day, what the weather was like, and what you said, everything comes out. It is easy to reconstruct unpleasant events without the need for archaeologists to solve the puzzles using imagination and reasoning. Instead, rumors spread in an instant.
That's why it's better to leave a lot of good footprints instead of trying to hide and delete online records of bad ones. Those who want to grow up should show their service. It is serving not to use up all your chances or authority. The beginning of good influence begins with the words 'I’m always on guard.'
It's not actually out of love for your child that makes you use chances recklessly. It can be much more beneficial to a child when you withhold the chance and give it to others. That is a good influence. It is this good influence flowing into the world that will save society. Quality of life will increase and predictions for a positive future will be easier to make.
