Hungarian Children day - Sung-rae Kim 8P
I have been staying in Budapest for almost one year now. I visited many tournaments, and I will go to some Baduk tournaments and camps this summer. These are part of my job, spreading Baduk in Europe now, but it is not the best way. I think the most important thing to spread Baduk for future, is to teach children. I always discuss about it with some Hungarian players but it is not easy to gather children.
I got call from the Korean Embassy in Hungary. They asked me if I could teach Baduk for children in City Park where children's day festival held. I can not speak Hungarian language, but I have some Hungarian friends who can teach Baduk. Yes, I can do it. We prepared something - renting car to deliver the demo board, buying some presents, making some papers for Baduk BingGo game.
There were many children in City Park, and 17 countries showed their traditional culture to children. My Hungarian friends taught almost 200 children. All children looked happy when they left. It was a good chance to teach children. It is still difficult to organize the Baduk education system for children, but we will do it.
