Hello, everyone. This is Daniel. Today, for the first time, I’m uploading a picture of myself on HelloTalk—though it’s a photo from about 15 years ago. The reason? Hmm… I’m not sure. I just suddenly had this thought: "When was I at my strongest, most confident, coolest, and filled with DAM volcanic energy?" "When was the time I felt the proudest and least regretful about my choices and actions?" As I reflected on these questions, my military service days naturally came to mind. You know how Korean men always end up talking about the military whenever they gather? I think it’s because, ironically, even though it was one of the hardest times, it was also when we felt the strongest as a man, And that makes it unforgettable. Throughout my life, I’ve been through a lot, but when it comes to what I would consider my "glory days," nothing quite compares to my time in the military. Maybe I set the bar too high for myself? Or perhaps those glory days haven’t arrived yet. IDW…yeah,, I don't know. Now, I’d like to ask my fellow Korean learners and anyone who feels like reflecting on themselves: "당신의 영광의 시대는 언제였습니까?" "When were your glory days?" I hope that each of you gets to experience your strongest, brightest, and most regret-free version of your own glory days. I’ll wrap it up here, hoping that this small post of mine leaves a positive impact on you. Thank you :) ## Images 1.
