They all confess that they were comforted and found hope in life through the video “Wiracle.”

And it will make us realize that the life we ​​enjoy every day is itself a miracle.

It was a perfect Saturday night.
A night just for me.
I thought my life was completely unraveled, like meshing gears.
I loved my healthy body and my life.
The world loved me too.
Before I left home that night, my father said to me:
“Wiya, don’t just get married and live with me for a long time.” I faced my father again, as if we were going to live together for the rest of our lives, just as he had wished.
“You will never be able to walk again.
“You won’t be able to move a finger at all.” It wasn’t a dream.
My body didn't move.
It was comfortable because there was nowhere else to go.
Now all you have to do is go up.
I chose life over death.

“Jiwoo, what is a disability to you?” Jiwoo answered without hesitation.
“Disability is the one bond that holds our family together.” My disability must have been an unbearable pain for my family.
But to overcome this hardship, our family all came together as one.
I was riding a train called 'Suffering' and passing through a long, dark tunnel with no end in sight.
But the love of my family gave me the momentum to lead that train to a beautiful place filled with light.
That love warmly embraced my long period of suffering, which could not have been otherwise.

“You will never be able to walk again.” The unbelievable words my surgeon had said to me while I was lying in the intensive care unit were now slowly coming into my understanding.
The frustration I felt when I realized that no matter how much I tried and tried, things couldn't get better was unimaginable.
But on the other hand, a feeling similar to resentment was also growing.
A heart like a frog, a heart that wants to make the impossible possible and show it to the world.
“No, if God raises me up, I will definitely rise.” In a corner of my heart, a passion to perform a miracle burned.

Before, I thought it was okay because I didn't feel any pain in the paralyzed area.
I also thought that since it was an area that would recover anyway, the pain during the healing process was meaningless.
But by feeling the pain in the area where the injury occurred, I realized that the pain was protecting my body.
If people didn't feel pain, they wouldn't know they had bedsores like mine.
If the bedsore is severe enough, it could be life-threatening.
The pain felt in the human body is a signal of salvation that seeks to save that person's life.
We should be grateful that we can feel pain today too.

Even if I wanted to walk right now, I couldn't walk right now.
I can't climb stairs by myself in a wheelchair.
When I am faced with an impossible situation like this, I have no choice but to give up.
I, who used to have to do whatever I wanted and have everything to feel satisfied, learned to be more relaxed in order to give up.
It is not the freedom that comes from already having something, but the freedom of mind that allows you to let go of things you want.
When I gave up, it was nothing.
I learned the wisdom of life when I became paralyzed.
There is no rush and there is nothing you absolutely have to have.
Just live slowly and slowly.

---From "Living Slowly"

We live in a capitalist society where money can buy almost anything.
But love can be given even without money.
Even I, who can't use my legs and has imperfect fingers, can love someone if I just make up my mind to do so.
Although the challenge of how to put that love into practice remains, simply deciding to love someone is a big step forward.
It was the moment when my life's purpose became clear.
And then I realized.
The reason and purpose for which I was born into this world is to love.

---From "You Are Born to Love"

Even now, eight years after the accident, as I write this, I still haven't given up hope that it will happen.
I saw a very faint possibility and held out hope.
That hope motivated me to work hard at my rehabilitation, and I have survived to this day with that strength.
Of course, as the doctor said, I may never be able to get up.
But now it doesn't matter to me.
The joy and happiness I felt as I ran with hope had already lifted me up.

I was convinced that if a video were to be shared of a young man who had endured extreme hardships in life and lived in a wheelchair without giving up, it would give people courage and hope.
I thought I would be incredibly happy if I could instill in them the thought, 'If that friend is living a bright life, maybe I can too.'
In addition, it was expected to have the effect of improving people's awareness of disabilities.
I had no interest in or knowledge of 'disability' at all, but living in a wheelchair gave me a new understanding of 'disability'.
And the family members who live with me also came to understand specifically what ‘disability’ is.
Furthermore, I have seen people close to me break down their prejudices and stereotypes about disabilities through ongoing encounters with me.

"As my subscriber base grows and more people contact me, how should I connect with them? How can I be of help to them?" In fact, I haven't found a clear solution yet.
Perhaps the answer can be found on the "Wiracle" channel. I realized this problem is not something I can solve alone.
Because this world is not a place where ‘I’ live alone, but where ‘we’ live together.
Just as I, diagnosed with quadriplegia and unable to use both my hands and legs, can provide hope and help to others, I believe that we can all be of help to someone.
So, what if subscribers to "Wiracle" could band together, form teams, and meet people in need, offering comfort and hope? I dream.
A world where we live together.
A world where miracles happen to all of us.
