I want to record my youth. Maybe it wasn't perfect, but it was still full of life.
I want others to see themselves in my story, whether as a reflection or a shadow. I just want them to relate.
I want to rewrite that less-than-beautiful youth, that youth full of regrets.
I want to make myself the protagonist and fulfill a dream.
What is youth?
Youth is a performance that is destined to end.
The many guests who appear in the performance will all leave you. And when the curtain finally falls, you'll give a few words of thanks: to those who appeared onstage, to yourself, to this stage, and to your youth.
No one's youth is perfect. We all have a few regrets.
They say that youth without regrets isn't youth at all.
So here, I'll fill in the gaps I regret.
Using my youth as the foundation, I'll build a house where everyone can find themselves.
