He explained that words and thoughts possess the power to overcome challenges, encouraging students to develop confidence by believing in their own potential. He further illustrated his message by citing historical figures such as Kim Chun-chu and Abraham Lincoln, who achieved positive outcomes by cultivating inner strength. Concluding his lecture, Professor Yang said, \u201cEven when you face obstacles in the future, I hope you overcome them with a positive attitude and that your path ahead will be as beautiful as a road in spring.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" data-id=\"3846\" src=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/kr_seoul_konghang_character_education_3-e1757989910853.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3846\"\/><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"801\" data-id=\"3848\" src=\"https:\/\/asezstar.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/kr_seoul_konghang_character_education_5-e1757989920855.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3848\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Throughout the session, students listened attentively to the professor\u2019s warm and thoughtful guidance.
