Korean people put our family name first and use the fixed name. From my family and my generation, "YOUNG" is fixed name. My sibling's names are "YOUNG-SUK", "YOUNG-HEE". As you know, My name is "YOUNG-A". My family name is "KANG". This letter-KANG- means healthy and comfortable life, so my family precept is "Be Healthy". Healthy life is very important to me and my family so that there are many our healthy rules: getting up early, to exercise regullary, avoiding too salty and spicy food, and going to bed early.
As our concerning about health, we occasionally had excercises together such as walking, jogging, badminton, and tennis. Our the most favorite excercise is playing tennis. My husband also a good sportman. He was particpated in the Ironman Triathlon regullary. He is really working pretty hard but also trains his body through exercise of each other every day. He want to participate in the Triathlon with me, but it is overdoing to me yet. Anyway, Do you like any exercising? I hope that you are going to do something for your healthy life!!!
