Hope For Young People: Overcoming Adversity In Any Country

Seoul National University professor Kim Nan-do (pictured) will be selling his new essay, "Growing Up Is Painful" in China, Japan, Taiwan and Italy. The essay will be published as a book and will deliver its message of hope to young people all over the world.

In explaining the reason for signing the deal, foreign publishers said the essay will help mentor young people in their countries because they share the same pain and uncertainty.

Chinese publisher Guangxi said professor Kim’s intellectual writing makes young people realize what they have failed in so far. The essay encourages young people to overcome a slump no matter how severe, which will deliver a good message to Chinese youth, it added.
