Two Korean traditional wrestlers compete during the 2017 Korea Open Ssireum Festival in Naju, South Jeolla Province, in November last year. Ssireum, the nation's traditional wrestling sport, became a UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage, Monday, after North and South Korea's joint bid as part of their reconciliation efforts was accepted. The sport was listed as “Traditional Korean Wrestling (Ssirum/Ssireum).” / Yonhap

Jhoo Dong-chan

Do not go gentle into that good night, old age should burn and rave at close of day; Rage, rage against the dying of the light, though wise men at their end know dark is right, because their words had forked no lightning they, do not go gentle into that good night.
