Into the book
Say no!
'no.
Please stay still.'
I grabbed the guy by the neck to keep him from coming out.
My mother's eyes wavered as she looked at me.
“I’m going to be late for school.
“Come on, bring your bag.”
My mother pulled my arm.
“Kang! Kang!”
I jumped up and screamed.
“Oh my, this is surprising.
What is this? Dan-ah.
Why are you drawing this?”
--- p.12
Kang-woo threw a tantrum that shook the desk.
Every time the desk shook, my body flinched.
I suppressed the urge to look back.
“Hey, you in front, why do you keep shaking your head?
Even during class, you were turning your head.
“What the heck, I can’t concentrate.”
This time, Kangwoo turned his arrows on me.
My body froze like ice.
“That guy, Dan, has a tic.”
It seemed like Min-gi was talking to Kang-woo.
It was a small voice, but I could hear it all.
“Tick? Hey, do you have a tic?”
Kangwoo spoke to the back of my head.
It seemed like all the kids were looking at me.
I bit my lip and jumped up.
I couldn't sit still for fear that he might jump out.
I opened the classroom door and ran out.
--- p.29
It became quiet outside.
I lay face down on the bed.
I was always alone until my mom got home from work.
When I'm alone, I'm defenseless.
I get attacked indiscriminately by that guy.
I buried my face in the pillow.
I don't want to put up with it!
The guy kept screaming “Kangkang!”
My throat hurt.
If my mom were here at a time like this, she would have rubbed my back.
I missed my mom.
I missed my mother's touch.
--- p.40
“Sam would scream in front of people.
School teachers punish children for being noisy on purpose, and children tease and hit them, and gosh…
Sam was really depressed at that time.
Why am I like this? I had low self-esteem, you know.
Then, in the 5th grade, I met my homeroom teacher.
He was kind and affectionate, and different from other teachers.
He saw that I was good at running and suggested that I try playing soccer.
I enjoyed kicking the ball.
Strangely enough, when I kick the ball, there is no screaming.
As I focused on what I liked, it gradually disappeared.
Until middle school, I wanted to become a national soccer player, but I guess I wasn't good enough for that.
So I became a teacher.
Haha.
“I met Dan-i like this.”
The smiling teacher's eyes were warm.
“I... am more serious than the teacher.
“He shakes his head, screams… He has two tics, so he has Tourette Syndrome.”
I dropped my eyes to the bowl of udon.
'no.
Please stay still.'

The story of Dan-i, a strong child!
According to the results of a mental health survey on children under 18 years of age announced by the Ministry of Health and Welfare in June 2024, 16.1% of children and adolescents in Korea have experienced a mental disorder at least once since birth, and the number of children suffering from mental health problems is steadily increasing.
In fact, it is said that 4.9% of children have experienced severe depression.
This is a red flag for children's mental health.
A variety of approaches and programs are needed to support and protect children's mental health.
"I'm a Strong Child" tells the story of Dan-i, who suffers from Tourette syndrome, a tic symptom that causes her to crack her neck and make sounds.
Helps you understand tics by telling the story of a protagonist with Tourette syndrome.
It makes me think about the importance of understanding and caring for friends with tics rather than looking at them coldly.
It also gives you the courage to believe that even if you have tics, you can still achieve, be recognized, and live happily just like anyone else.
When Dan-i is nervous or anxious, she makes noises and moves her throat involuntarily.
Symptoms get worse when the environment changes.
So, I couldn't follow my father who went to Brazil to work, and I stayed in Korea with my mother.
A big change comes to Dan-i.
As the new semester of 5th grade began, my mother was admitted to the hospital.
I ended up in a situation where I didn't even have a mother, who was my spiritual refuge.
Dan-i meets teacher Bong Dal-hee.
Teacher Bong Dal-hee also said that she had tics when she was young.
Tell her a story about overcoming her tic while playing soccer, which she loves, and ask her to find out what she likes and is good at.
After listening to the teacher's story, Dan-i begins to think deeply about herself.
During that time, Dan-i tried to overcome her tic symptoms by forcibly enduring them.
I never once thought about what I liked and what I was good at.
Rather than worrying and being afraid of her tics, Dan-i decides to find ways to live her life.
Even if tic symptoms appear, don't be anxious and accept yourself as you are, and face Tourette syndrome.
Thinking about other people's pain
A story that instills consideration
Most children think that being sick means having a cold or other illness.
It's hard to imagine that the mind can also get sick with diseases like colds.
This is partly due to the perception that mental illness is not something that children should necessarily know about, and partly due to the social atmosphere that makes it difficult to publicize mental illness to those around them.
It is actually better for children to be aware of depression, attention deficit disorder, tics, etc.
The number of infants and children experiencing these symptoms is increasing day by day.
For these children, consideration and understanding from those around them are especially necessary.
This is because tics, which involve making specific sounds or showing various repetitive movements, are symptoms that the person cannot control on their own.
It is important to be considerate and understand the disease with those around you.
Young readers will be able to understand Tourette syndrome and tics by reading I Am a Strong Child.
If you see a friend or person around you showing these symptoms, you will not be surprised, but will have a warm and considerate attitude.
Furthermore, you will be able to gain courage by seeing Dan-i moving forward with strength toward a brighter future despite her tic symptoms.
In this process, I develop the ability to believe in myself and boldly face any pain or wall that blocks me, without being discouraged.
Korean Andersen Award winner, author Ye-ran Jeong
A wave of courage and inspiration for young readers
Author Jeong Ye-ran, who wrote “I am a Strong Child,” said that after going through a difficult time due to a sudden illness, she healed her body and mind by reading various fairy tales.
Then, with the thought of wanting to write touching fairy tales, he became a fairy tale writer.
After much hard work, you won the Excellence Award at the Korean Andersen Award for your children's poem "The Gap" in 2019, and the Grand Prize at the Korean Andersen Award for your children's poem "People in the Rainbow Apartment" in 2023.
"I am a Strong Child" is a story written with the hope that, just as the author overcame pain while reading fairy tales, young readers will also be able to develop dreams and courage even in difficult times by looking at the main character, Dan-i.
According to the recommendation left by Hong Jong, the author of the fairy tale "I am a Strong Child," "the protagonist Kim Dan is the image of the author who strives to create a good fairy tale, and also the image of our friends who live in a complicated and difficult reality."
"I am a strong child" is a textbook on courage that our friends must read.
What will readers see through Dan-i? I hope they can find and dream of precious things and the world around them—friends, themselves, and hope for the future.
The author, whose real name is Jeong Seon-ok, chose the pen name 'Jeong Ye-ran' with the intention of spreading her diverse works to the hearts of readers.
As the author's pen name suggests, I hope that young readers will grow up healthy and warm-hearted while reading "I am a Strong Child," with warm hearts and strong courage in their hearts.
