lead actors shine, but the stage would never be complete without the supporting actors.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author has constantly wandered between the desire to boldly pursue his dreams and the stability of his position. \u003cbr\u003eEvery time he took on a new challenge, he was always a 'late bloomer', and he felt like he was the only one left behind.\u003cbr\u003e But through those experiences of failure, he eventually found his own story and enlightenment about life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e \"The Courage to Live as a Supporting Role\" tells lost youth that \"it's okay to wander,\" gives middle-aged readers \"the courage to start over, even if it's late,\" and shows everyone living in today's uncertain times \"the possibility of a life we ​​can dream of because we're supporting characters.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e This book tells us that living a life as a supporting actor is by no means a defeat, but rather that a shining life is ultimately completed through the pieces gathered one by one from small places.\u003cbr\u003e So, this book has a greater impact on ordinary people who have been quietly enduring their daily lives behind the scenes.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cb\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDazzling scenes created by ordinary people meeting together\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cbr\u003eWhenever I jump into a new job, I always have to stand in front of an unfamiliar field as a newbie.\u003cbr\u003e But at every moment when he might have failed or given up, another protagonist would appear as if promised and take his next scene.\u003cbr\u003e He would not be where he is today if it weren't for the encouragement of his colleagues, the support of his students, the advice of his seniors, and the comfort of his family while living as a reporter, producer, and professor.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The author never speaks of the path he has walked as a solo achievement.\u003cbr\u003e He confesses that there has always been a supporting actor who helps him on stage, and that he has also been a supporting actor for others on stage.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, “The Courage to Live as a Supporting Role” is not simply an autobiographical account of one person, but a story of all of us who live by relying on each other in relationships.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e It's not just the lead actors who light up the world. \u003cbr\u003eLife becomes richer when supporting actors meet supporting actors and add to the story together.\u003cbr\u003e This book reminds us that the supporting actors who complete each other's stage from behind the scenes, and the moments they create, are the 'true highlight scenes' of the movie called life.
