Sometimes with a lot of hard work and determination-and a little luck-fairy tales do come true. An orphan from the age of three who traded abuse at the orphanage for the dangers of life on the street at five years old, Sungbong Choi refused to be bound by the circumstance of his youth. During his ten years on the streets of one of South Korea's largest cities, Choi falls victim to gangs, drugs, and was abused by adults for their own survival. Instead of succumbing to negative influences, he takes every small opportunity and act of kindness provided to him, to turn his life around. After a chance encounter with an opera singer, Choi finds a vocal teacher willing to give him free lessons. His natural talent and determination pay off when he competes on the television program Korea's Got Talent...and shows both his country and the world how gifted he truly is. This captivating true story is sure to inspire readers of all ages and cultural backgrounds.

In doing so, he delves into the broader background of South Korea in this wonderfully informed history and analysis of a pop culture phenomenon sweeping the globe.

It is a self-development book that is made up of two things: 'Words is a seed' and laughter is happiness. Because dreams are built up through words and happy energy is created through laughter, it is that if you do words and laughter every day, you can live a successful life and you can enjoy a happy life. A word has power, dreams, and life, so he must say good things and say something positive.
