Look both ways!
아이들이 아직 어리다보니 학교오갈 때 안전이 걱정되곤 하는데요, 비오는 어느날 횡단보도에 서 있는 두 아이 발밑에 한글이 유독 눈이 들어오더군요. \"좌우를 살펴요\" 양끝에 남녀 픽토그램이 자리하고, 옹기종기 발자국들이 늘어선 모습이 친절하고 예뻐보였어요. 걷거나 횡단보도 건널 때 핸드폰만 보지말고 좌우를 살피며 모두 안전하게 다니면 좋겠어요.
Because the children are still young, I often worry about their safety when they go to and from school.
One rainy day, I noticed some Korean writing on the ground beneath two children standing at a crosswalk—it immediately caught my eye.
The words “Look both ways” were written in Hangeul, with little male and female pictograms on each end and a row of tiny footprints between them. It looked so kind and thoughtful—almost beautiful.
I truly hope that everyone, young and old, puts down their phones while walking or crossing the street, and instead takes a moment to look left and right—so we can all stay safe.
