I left the familiar space of Seoul,
knowing that I needed a break to go further, and came to Jeju.
However, standing in front of the walls of Lee Wal-jong's museum,
I find myself agonizing over the color of the future Galmel Hall walls that I should build.
Looking at Jeju's Oedolgae Rock,
I see myself standing between the legend of a grandmother waiting for her husband
who died at sea and the scientific truth that it is merely a rock formed by volcanic activity.
At that moment,
I face the fact that my strengths as a pastor could become stumbling blocks
in fulfilling my role as a university president.
Gazing at the trees drawn from wildfires hung in the space of the Itami Jun Museum building,
which insisted on architecture that followed the local topography,
I contemplate the key concepts for the Galmel Hall architecture that I must construct,
pondering them as keywords.
Does the building create space,
or does space create the building?
Who is the parent, and who is the child?
Though the sky was cloudy in Jeju,
and the ocean did not reveal everything,
I see myself walking a new path
as the university president.
