Myeong-hak Lee, Professor Emeritus of Classical Chinese Education
Pubilshed <First Chinese Letters as an Adult>
Emeritus Professor Myeong-hak Lee (Classical Chinese Education) has published <First Chinese Letters as an Adult>, which is an interesting book about origins and examples of Chinese characters.
Professor Lee has always emphasized the need for education of Chinese character, one of two central pillars of korean language. Words with Chinese characters can be written in Korean, but if you don't know the meaning of those words, it would bound to be 'half' education.
Though Professor Lee has stressed the importance of Chinese character education for almost 30 years, he was never offered for publishing a book. So he was impressed at the power of broadcasting, when several publishers suggested him to publish a book after he was on the tv program, <You Quiz on the Block>.
This book has 5 chapters (▲ Chinese Characters of Reversal ▲ Chinese Characters of Misunderstanding ▲Chinese Characters of Discovery ▲Chinese Characters of Relationship ▲Chinese Characters of Empathy), and there are about 70 words up to 5 chapters.
With the origin and usage of Chinese characters, even the quitters of Chinese characters can study the language in a pleasant and pleasant manner with a wit.
Professor Myeong-hak Lee said, “People should know Chinese characters to be good at Korean. If you know at least 300 characters’ origins and meanings, your literacy can be developed dramatically.”
