Last week In KA We watched a screening :71 Into the Fire - an amazing, toughing movie about Korean War (1950-1953). Under the influence of this movie I decided to write a letter to one of my favorite actors, who is currently serving in the army.
How are you? I
hope that you’re doing well. I got a wonderful opportunity to write a letter to
a Korean star in the army, and I decided to write to you because I saw a lot of
movies starring you and I think you are a very talented and handsome actor.
Now you are a
soldier, who is guarding the peace and security of your country bringing pride
to your family. It's already been one year since you entered in the army. I’m
sure your family miss you and I can safely say that us fans miss you a lot as
well. But can you imagine how pleasantly surprised they will be to find you
after two years of service, - a braver, stronger and a fulfilled man who
performed his duty with unwavering loyalty.
The army
toughens up a man; it is a constant physical and mental challenge that
disciplines a man and brings out a whole new identity in him. I am sure that
you’re facing this challenge with great spirit. I am aware of the risks
associated with military service, so I hope you have loyal friends guarding the
country alongside you, who support you, share your troubles and keep your
spirits high. And I hope your seniors are kind to you.
By the way, my name is Katerina, I'm from Estonia, but
now live in London, from where I`m writing this letter to you. I am one of the
students in the K-Pop Academy in London. Here we study the Korean culture and
history. I can tell you that a massive number of people admire Korean films and
music. Korean culture is becoming global, and I am very happy about it.
I hope you are
enjoying the time out there, doing things different, daring and adventurous.
And I hope the time will fly soon, so you’ll be back among your family, friends
and fans. I hope the army will inspire you to create something unique and
beautiful when you come back.
Katerina.
