"So what? I like myself."
The Power of Sex Education: Self-Esteem and Empowerment

Why "Self-Esteem Sex Education"? Professor Kim Nu-ri recommends this book, stating that a strong ego is crucial for growing into a mature individual, and that "self-esteem" is what fosters this.
A teenager with self-esteem is not 'swayed' by situations he or she does not want to be in, and is able to 'make his or her own decisions' based on sound values.
This book provides young people with sufficient information about sex and helps them ask their own questions to empower them to make decisions.
"Am I ready? How much can I allow? What do I want?" With their own bodies, their own thoughts, and their own decisions, young people can learn to take charge of their own lives.

“Just because you like someone doesn’t mean you have to do everything they say.
“It is really important to be specific and clear about what you want and what you don’t want.” (pp. 179-180)

Knowing and taking care of your body is the first step to building self-esteem.
If you are aware of the various changes that will occur in your body during puberty, such as menstruation and wet dreams, which are explained in Chapters 1 through 4, you can naturally accept your new self.
It also details how to maintain and manage your own health through 'genital observation'.
If you know and accept your own body well, you can avoid being swayed by the gaze or standards of others.
We have created a space where teenagers who are concerned about their bodies, such as acne, hair, diet, and plastic surgery, can think about their 'body image'.


Expressing feelings, dating, fighting and breaking up
How to Build Healthy Relationships with Others

Professor Bae Jeong-won encountered twenty-somethings at university and realized that they were "still ignorant about sex, had difficulty buying condoms, and were awkward at honestly expressing their love." He wrote this book for teenagers, the "golden time" for receiving sex education.
Teenagers also begin dating at school and experience various complex concerns about sex, but they miss out on the 'important time to learn about sex and love' because they are unable to properly open up or resolve these concerns due to school rules prohibiting dating and an atmosphere that views sexuality among teenagers as taboo.


Chapters 5 through 7 cover in detail 'How to build healthy relationships with others.'
It contains various concerns that can arise in the entire process of love, such as confessing your feelings, dating, sharing love, fighting, and breaking up, such as 'when your confession is rejected, when worrying about dating expenses, when asking for sexual consent, and when preparing for your first experience.'
From your teenage years, you can lead your sex life with the right values ​​and practice acting according to your values.
This book is for all young people who want to live as mature people who know and express healthy love.

Increase fun and understanding with cartoon illustrations!
From the 'Body Mind Counseling Center Q&A' to answer teenagers' questions

The appearance of our bodies and the various daily lives and concerns of teenagers are captured in a fun and informative way through colorful 'cartoon illustrations'.
Important content is summarized once more with illustrations for easy understanding.
In each chapter, the 'Body Mind Counseling Center Q&A' addresses questions from actual teenagers.
“If I masturbate a lot, will I not be able to have children later?” “My genitals look different.” “I think I’m addicted to porn.”
You can find detailed and specific solutions from Professor Bae Jeong-won to questions like, “I’m worried and I don’t want to do it, what should I do?”


Professor Bae Jeong-won says that “the more we know about sex,” the more we can avoid putting ourselves at risk, build better relationships with others, and strive to live as healthy and happy beings.
This is why sex is not simply about sexual intercourse, but expands to become a ‘story about human life.’
Teenagers already have the seeds of self-esteem that will lead them to happiness in their lives.
I hope this book will help you unleash that sparkling power.
