Sometimes, when I go to middle school and give a literature lecture, I ask young people which poet they like the most. Then, the poet that students remember the most is Yoon Dong-ju. Next is Kim So-wol, followed by Han Yong-woon. It's a surprise every time. And then I ask the students. Did poet Yoon Dong-ju die? Then they answer firmly that he is not dead. They say he is definitely alive in their hearts. In that sense, I think a really good poet is a poet who lives in people's memories even after he dies. That's considered the completion of the poet. In this collection of poems, I have two poets who remain the best memories for such young people. Among their poems, I chose works that I recommend to teenagers. And I picked some of my poems and put them in the back. It is a book made with the hope that the young people of this land will have more beautiful and fragrant hearts through poetry. In that sense, I expect the attention and love of young people.
