Bone of word is silence.
 
I would like to say that the most significant element in terms of a word is its bone, bone of word, word with bone. Cardiac arrest. This is a death certificate. Mr. BAEK Namki, who was in critical condition after being struck by a jet from a police water cannon, lived for 314 days after, and then passed away.
 
A death certificate. Cardiac death. Respiration arrest. He died because he could not breathe and his cardiac function failed. Is there anyone who dies while breathing and who also contains a healthy heart?
 
In October 10th 2009, the Norwegian Nobel Committee announced the Nobel Peace Prize to President Barack Obama, who was appointed as president of United States for only ten days. As the committee had faced critical opinions from all around the world, the committee responded that “We are expecting Obama’s vision of and work for world peace during his years, and the prize was awarded in order to encourage him.” It is inevitable to ask this question: what has Obama, who nearly finished the eight years of presidency, done for the world peace?
 
Let’s review the case of our country. Cheonan ship sinking, a word was abandoned. BBK. Resource Diplomacy. Four Major Rivers Project. Closure of Kaesong industrial complex. Korean history textbook controversy. Foundation Day. Military sexual slave deal. Temporary workers. WOO Byungwoo. KIM Hyoungjoon. KIM Jaesoo. Mir Foundation. K Sports. THAAD crisis. And finally, BAEK Namki’s death. Word! Word! Word! The corrupted word. Word without bones dominates the world. 
The word does not matter if it is said or not. The thing that isn’t a word is flabby word without bones. Lie. Excuse. Fraud. Deception. Timid. Nonsense. Threat. And even Violence. These words. What should we do with these words? We should gather energy for the word. We should get the word raised and stood up. That is to say, word. The bone needs to be mounted in the word.
 
Bone of the word. It is silence. Silence. What is silence? Silence is the opposite term for word. Denial. Refusal. Silence is shutting the mouth. Ripping apart the vocal chords. However, what makes the bone of word silence? Our thoughts continue while the silence lasts. Thoughts continue. However, what happens if the silence continues? Nothing. Death. Extinction itself World of extermination and annihilation. Thus, silence exists throughout time. Silence is existence of the time. Silence is stopping a word for a moment. It is a pause. Silence is existence in the tine, Silence is pausing for a word and truce. Word pause. Word truce. Disconnecting a word, looking back on oneself, reflecting and rethinking, looking at the other side, embracing the opposition, and a self-conversation by truly encountering one’s internal voice. Embracing and considering the world.
 
Wordlessness overwhelms a word. This is real silence.
 
If silence escapes from time and falls into the world of annihilation, then it is the same as the world is over. A word is shut in time, but silence goes beyond the time. Hence, silence is not only a moment but also everlasting. So I dare to say that the bone of word is silence. Well, what is the bone of silence? Bone of word?
Bone of silence is script. You may believe there is a drastic leap in the logic? The answer is ‘no’. Ladies and gentlemen, we normally think; although we are not speaking, but we continue our ideas. Yet, what happens if the silence becomes word, then that is no longer silence, and if the silence finishes as silence, it is nothing; then do you know what the word turns to and to which body? I believe in the end, it will turn out as script. Therefore, I think the bone of silence is script. Sound of ideas is word, record of thoughts is script. Signifiant- signifier. The record of thoughts is script. Signifié- signified. Word is idea without silence. Script is word of silence. Awakening silence, the body of silence is script. Script is the home for ideas, frame for thoughts, structure, organization, pillar and bone. Everyone has different bones. Much less, nations, people, species and cultures cannot share the same bone. Respecting, understanding, and loving each bone. This is the world that World Script Symposia pursues and hopes for.
 
As the salmon hurl their bodies, I insist that we need to go through travel and adventure by transcending time and space, in order to explore word, the silence of script. Script is the record of life, and documentation of action. The record between you and I. In other words, bone of life, bone of living, and bone of genuine you and I.
 
The course of exploring bone of the world is the course of exploring the first and the last of the script. World Script Symposia puts our future precisely at the course of exploration, the pleasure and the beauty. Finding, picking the body of the script, gathering, mixing, emptying, trimming, attaching, sharpening, covering and reducing are all devoirs for reaching a final stroke. A stroke.
 
A stroke of a script verifies and proves what exists before and after script. Allow me to say, there was a stroke in the beginning. There is a stroke since the beginning. Civilization, culture, and the world remain as a stroke.
 
A stroke!
 
Thank you.
