Pohang citizens and other local people paying attention to the Pohang by-election to think about why Park Tae-jun ran in the by-election and why the current regional and national situation calls him back.\u003cbr\u003e The giant image of Park Tae-jun, known as 'the protagonist of the POSCO myth, the master of the real economy, the hero of Korean industrialization, and the world's steel emperor,' could have easily created a sense of distance from ordinary citizens.\u003cbr\u003e This was also an image that could distort his human side.\u003cbr\u003e To overcome this problem, the old candidate spared no effort.\u003cbr\u003e He entered the 'citizens' through constant handshakes and street campaigning.\u003cbr\u003e The more it was like that, the more the ‘heat’ made him suffer.\u003cbr\u003e But he had the muscles and bones that had been trained during his time traveling to every corner of Yeongilman, and he had a strong pride that would not allow him to lose in the fight against himself. \u003cbr\u003e---From \"'Geongje' is gone, 'Gyeongje' is here\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun was a leading figure in the Korean industrialization scene in the latter half of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun, who created the 'Legend of Yeongil Bay and Gwangyang Bay' and is the only leader in all fields who lived in the same era in our history since liberation, is recognized by the world as the 'World's Greatest Steelmaker'.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e From October 1997 to April 2000, during the desperate period when Korea achieved a horizontal transfer of power for the first time in 50 years and overcame the dire crisis of national bankruptcy, he served as an advisor and supporting actor to Kim Dae-jung on the stage of political power, drawing on his past pure passion and brilliant career.\u003cbr\u003e Historical conventions are overly narrow in their treatment and evaluation of supporting actors. \u003cbr\u003eIf we narrow our perspective to only the two-year and six-month period of dire national crisis at the turn of the century and the dawn of the new century, what kind of attitude did Park Tae-jun have and what kind of contributions did he make alongside Kim Dae-jung?\u003cbr\u003e After Park Tae-jun left, Kim Dae-jung overcame public concerns about his health and completed the \"government of the people.\"\u003cbr\u003e The historic June 15th Inter-Korean Summit was realized.\u003cbr\u003e He won the Nobel Peace Prize.\u003cbr\u003e Official banners celebrating the glory of the incumbent president were hung all over the place.\u003cbr\u003e But it did not resonate with the majority of the people.\u003cbr\u003e Unfortunately, his close associates who held key positions in the ruling power were implicated in corruption and arrested one after another.\u003cbr\u003e Perhaps to further weaken the regime, which was already tainted by corruption, Kim Jong-il in Pyongyang never came to Seoul.\u003cbr\u003e After that, the North Korean nuclear issue became difficult to resolve. \u003cbr\u003eJust as the 1972 \"July 4th North-South Joint Statement\" between Park Chung-hee and Kim Il-sung left a significant mark on inter-Korean relations, will the expensive \"June 15th Declaration\" between Kim Dae-jung and Kim Jong-il in 2000 follow in the same footsteps?\u003cbr\u003e Having retired from the political arena, the 'world's greatest steelmaker' now embarks, exhausted and exhausted, on a long and arduous journey to regain his health.\u003cbr\u003e His physical strength and

sparked a wave of commemoration across generations and ideologies. \u003cbr\u003e『Biography of Park Tae-jun - The World's Greatest Steelman』 evaluates the value and reflects on the significance of his selfless, first-class nationalism and his spirit of a non-possessive, large-scale entrepreneurship, which are public assets that should be shared by our time and future generations, by reflecting on them in the mirror of the turbulent history of 20th-century Korea.\u003cbr\u003e Author Lee Dae-hwan completed the journey 16 years after he first began writing, marking the 5th anniversary of the protagonist's death.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun, who created the steel myth that became the most important foundation for the success of Korea's industrialization.\u003cbr\u003e Nevertheless, he was a leader of integrity who did not leave behind a single house. \u003cbr\u003eWriter Lee Dae-hwan, who first met the protagonist in the early summer of 1997 and “spent countless hours with him, talking about his life, thoughts, and memories” until the day he passed away, vividly shows the miraculous spirit of Park Tae-jun through scenes from the myth, and then expresses his thoughts on the long conversation with the protagonist as follows.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"As a writer, what is the most compelling aspect of Park Tae-jun that I've observed? Is it his exceptional ability to embody the leadership qualities of a general, a virtuous general, and a brave general? People often point to that.\u003cbr\u003e I readily admit it.\u003cbr\u003e But I don't consider it to be the greatest attraction.\u003cbr\u003e The greatest charm of Park Tae-jun that I caught was his attitude toward life that placed ‘spiritual value’ at the top of all values.\u003cbr\u003e I, who am a full generation younger than the protagonist, married him when he was seventy years old. \u003cbr\u003eHow can I respect, follow, and nurture this connection? His life, which traversed the turbulent heart of modern Korean history, should be reflected in the mirror of his time through the lens of literature, art, and research, leaving behind an intangible social asset for future generations.\u003cbr\u003e This is the best I can do and the best condition to follow by ‘carrying it in my body.’\u003cbr\u003e “Because I am a writer.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The praise for Park Tae-jun is nothing more than a superficial shell that would never have suited him if he had simply been a successful businessman.\u003cbr\u003e It is already a well-known anecdote that he built POSCO from nothing into a world-class, top-tier company and served as its chairman, yet never received a single share of stock, whether it was a merit-based stock or something else. \u003cbr\u003eThe biggest reason why even ordinary citizens with no connection to POSCO or POSTECH continue to pay their respects to him and visit his remains at the Seoul National Cemetery is probably because, in this world stained with corruption, 'Park Tae-jun is a figure who truly serves as an example to the times.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e When the book 『Park Tae-jun, the World's Greatest Steelman』 by Lee Dae-hwan was first published in December 2004, it received praise such as, “A work comparable to excellent biographies from foreign countries has been published,” “This book has all three elements: prose, insight, and emotion,” “This is truly a biography of a person who can dare to say, ‘I loved my country and dedicated myself to it,’” and “This book provides a clear answer to the question, ‘Why Park Tae-jun again today?’” and became a representative piece of Korean biography.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTwelve years later, amidst the chaos and crisis that seemed to be sucking Korean society into the whirlpool of the presidential impeachment, and amidst the power of the citizens to overcome it, the biography of Park Tae-jun, which has been republished with a new cover to mark the 5th anniversary of his death, includes [Park Tae-jun's Last Season], which was completely unknown to the world, as well as the '30 Seasons of Twilight' from the summer of 2004 until his passing, and supplements here and there from the existing biography while also refining the sentences.\u003cbr\u003e The expansion and supplementation were achieved through continuous conversations between the protagonist and the author, and additional interviews with people around the author, which continued even after 2004.\u003cbr\u003e Additionally, the author's essay at the beginning of the book, [The Master who remains in my soul, Park Tae-jun], allows us to understand the special relationship between the protagonist and the author.\u003cbr\u003e The volume of the book has increased from 856 pages to 1032 pages.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e

the next generation.”\u003cbr\u003e “Pohang University of Science and Technology is a national plan for the next century, and science and technology are the source of national wealth.”\u003cbr\u003e “Reconciliation between the industrialization and democratization forces, and harmony between Yeongnam and Honam, is the spirit of the times.”\u003cbr\u003e _From Park Tae-jun's sayings\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Just as human civilization has progressed in tandem with the development of iron, the path taken by Cheongam Park Tae-jun is intertwined with the history of Korea's economic growth.\u003cbr\u003e The history of the founding and development of POSCO has established itself as an important success story for national policy makers, business managers, and all citizens engaged in economic activity.\u003cbr\u003e Cheongam Park Tae-jun, carrying a huge burden and completing his life without a hitch, pioneered a new horizon for the era. \u003cbr\u003eHowever, remembering only by the size of the achievements has no true meaning.\u003cbr\u003e We must remember the spirit inherent in Park Tae-jun's achievements and utilize them as intangible social assets.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun, the 'world's greatest steelmaker', celebrated his 5th anniversary on December 13, 2016.\u003cbr\u003e To remember Park Tae-jun, who must remain in the souls of future generations, we need to ponder, 'Why Park Tae-jun again today?'\u003cbr\u003e There are temporal, national, and authorial aspects to this reflection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003ehistorical point\u003cbr\u003e -The historical achievements of a figure who formed a great mountain range in the history of economic development and the practical spirit of leading the world\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e From absolute poverty to statist-style compressed growth.\u003cbr\u003e This refers to the beginning and end of Korean industrialization in the second half of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e It is almost identical to the arduous path that democracy has taken to overcome hardship.\u003cbr\u003e So now our two feet are standing on the economy and democracy. \u003cbr\u003eThe turbulent times of the past produced many outstanding figures who penetrated the very heart of the times, and the author's gaze lingered on a particular life, producing biographical literature that served as a portrait of the times.\u003cbr\u003e Most of them are records of people who formed the mountain range of resistance movement history.\u003cbr\u003e It's a natural phenomenon.\u003cbr\u003e This is because Korean society has been a place where 'resistance' has beautifully illuminated the names of human beings for a long time.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Meanwhile, it is an undeniable fact that poverty has oppressed the people to the point of chilling horror.\u003cbr\u003e It is here that the historical achievements of the people who formed the mountain range of economic development history stand out.\u003cbr\u003e Their lives were also sometimes submitted for record.\u003cbr\u003e However, in contrast to the passion they poured into the field of creating industry, their treatment as a single-volume record, as well as in historical writing, was somewhat neglected.\u003cbr\u003e There were also instances of shoddy, sloppy construction, just like in a construction project. \u003cbr\u003eThis gap must be filled fairly and justly, if only for a balanced understanding of our times and history, and the representative figure who can fill that gap is Park Tae-jun.\u003cbr\u003e The spirit and practice that supported his achievements were rooted in 'serving the world', and his 'serving the world' was realized through selfless patriotism, first-class nationalism, and the spirit of a large-scale entrepreneur without any possessions.\u003cbr\u003e POSCO is a great embodiment of the spirit of patriotism through steel production, POSTECH and POSCO schools are excellent embodiments of the spirit of patriotism through education, and at the same time, they are the practice of selfless patriotism to build the foundation of a first-class nation. In addition, considering POSCO as the root of the national economy and the happiness of the people, not receiving a single share of POSCO stock, whether as a merit stock or otherwise, was the practice of the spirit of a large corporation without ownership. \u003cbr\u003ePark Tae-jun's spirit and practice are the 'true role model of a world-class public servant' that today's Korean society, stained with various corruptions, desperately longs for.\u003cbr\u003e This is one of the reasons why a biography of Park Tae-jun must exist, and it is the historical point of 'Why Park Tae-jun again today?'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003eNational branch\u003cbr\u003e -Providing a path to a correct understanding of 'Economy and the Past'\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun established his belief in the transformation of his time through colonialism, war, poverty, and corruption.\u003cbr\u003e He resisted poverty and corruption in his own way.\u003cbr\u003e He dreamed of designing a community that guaranteed a decent life and raising his entire field to the top in the world.\u003cbr\u003e So I risked my life on iron.\u003cbr\u003e His iron was soon the country.\u003cbr\u003e After 25 years of hard work, we finally established a strong foundation for the Korean economy and developed POSCO into a world-class company.\u003cbr\u003e He has truly become the world's greatest steelmaker.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eAt the age of seventy, he led the \"horizontal change of government for the first time in 50 years\" by calling for \"reconciliation between industrialization forces and democratization forces\" and \"harmony between Yeongnam and Honam,\" contributing to the launch of the Kim Dae-jung administration. At this time, he devoted his life's energy to the great cause of overcoming the IMF management system that was in the midst of a national bankruptcy crisis.\u003cbr\u003e At the end of the 20th century, he once again devoted himself to the 'nation'.\u003cbr\u003e Moreover, he opened new horizons for Korean private education from kindergarten to university and created a model for the welfare system.\u003cbr\u003e It established a model for ‘returning corporate profits to society.’\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun's footsteps and belief system reflect Korean society in the second half of the 20th century.\u003cbr\u003e Even today, Korean society is in turmoil due to political scandals and corruption scandals.\u003cbr\u003e Compared to the high standards of citizenship that the world is paying attention to, politics is still in a state of insignificance.\u003cbr\u003e Leadership is also missing. \u003cbr\u003eThe economy is struggling and people are struggling to make ends meet.\u003cbr\u003e Now, more than ever, Korean society craves selfless leadership, visionary leadership, and integrated leadership.\u003cbr\u003e We can never expect that from the so-called leaders who stand on either the right or the left foot, judging the past one-way and obsessed with calculating their own selfish desires.\u003cbr\u003e It's just a colloquialism.\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun's precious true nature is fully revealed in scenes where he suggests a correct path to understanding 'the economy and the past,' and he tangibly demonstrates leadership based on selflessness, vision, and integration.\u003cbr\u003e Naturally, it extends into a hopeful future.\u003cbr\u003e This is the national point of 'Why Park Tae-jun again

Emperor’ who made a huge fortune in the steel industry and did many good deeds in his later years.\u003cbr\u003e He remained as an image of a giant that no one dared approach.\u003cbr\u003e To me as a boy, America was like Carnegie.\u003cbr\u003e It was almost a generation later that I placed Carnegie of faraway Pittsburgh and Park Tae-jun of my hometown side by side.\u003cbr\u003e We compared the height, weight, and quality of life of the two characters.\u003cbr\u003e By any measure, the large white man was far inferior to the short Korean man.\u003cbr\u003e This is my starting point as a Korean who wrote this book.\u003cbr\u003e But I can confidently say that if the protagonist and I hadn't had such a deep connection, I probably wouldn't have been able to write this book.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e Park Tae-jun, the protagonist of the steel myth, and novelist Lee Dae-hwan, who was forced out of his hometown in 1968 when the Pohang Iron and Steel Company was established in the 4th grade. \u003cbr\u003eIf the author and the protagonist, with their strangely contrasting personalities, had not developed a particularly deep connection later in life, this book probably would not have been born.\u003cbr\u003e The author has spent countless hours conversing with the protagonist over 15 years since 1997.\u003cbr\u003e That led the author to the place of record.\u003cbr\u003e The 'contract' that often follows in the writing of a biography was not even mentioned or existed.\u003cbr\u003e In no conversation did the protagonist stutter or evade.\u003cbr\u003e His memory was also amazing.\u003cbr\u003e For example, when the author searched for officer chronology and related records to confirm a special experience from his military days more than 50 years ago, at least the month matched.\u003cbr\u003e The author was not easy either.\u003cbr\u003e For example, I had to dig through an old current affairs magazine to confirm the recollection that after May 16, he suggested sending the opposing generals to study abroad in the United States. \u003cbr\u003eIt was an effort to pass on the author's faith to the reader's faith.\u003cbr\u003e Almost all of the dialogue is not a creation of the author's imagination, but comes from the protagonist's memory, from the memory of the witness.\u003cbr\u003e Of course, there are also some that were called out from the records.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author concludes his long and arduous work by revealing two things.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e “Every lush forest has a few ugly and dead trees mixed in.\u003cbr\u003e If there is no such thing in the forest of life, then he is a person who has already transcended the human realm and lived in the realm of the gods.\u003cbr\u003e Not only every great man, but every saint, has inevitably some ugly trees and dead trees in the forest of his life.\u003cbr\u003e The problem is the way we look at
