At the age of forty, Yang Seog-Joong resigned from work and became a wood furniture maker, which is a disappearing occupation. Trees that seem dead are actually still living, and trees that appear similar to each other all have different characteristics. He explains that when it comes to making wood furniture, one has to follow 'what the tree wishes to do'. Interacting with trees as a life partner and recreating them into beautiful furniture, Yang Seog-Joong says the time he spends together with trees is treasurable beyond words. Today, he shares with us the wisdom of life he learned from trees.
In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
