Yun So Myeong

The LONG LOST FRIEND. Yun was my classmate in Teacher Education at the University of the Cordilleras in Baguio City, Philippines. We became friends for less two years, and it came to pass that he needs to go back in Korea for mandatory military service. Almost one year that we dont have any communications. It was a fate that the 15th International Rover Moot was held in Cheonan City which is near to Suwon City (his place). By God's will, we met and had a chance to walk around the city, exchanging stories... Kudos!

The overnight vigil. Surviving the night with only plastic serving as tent, Im together with my Rover Leader - Ryu Jun Hwi. Communication barrier never became a problem, after a 30-minute discussion (with body language and a little Hangurul I know, of course) we finished constructing our temporary shelter. Mabuhay ka Ryu!
