TEDxSeoul is a regional event run under an official license to plan TEDx programs based on TED’s vision, “Ideas Worth Spreading.” It was founded with the purpose of introducing TED talks to Korea by translating them into Korean, holding regular offline conferences and gatherings as a window to discover and spread ideas originating in Korea throughout the world, and promoting the expansion of ideas through this special meeting of participants.

How often do we have a chance to check on the fundamentals in our lives? Painters constantly step back to see their picture as a whole. The reason is to see what they are currently drawing goes along with the picture as a whole. However, we tend to focus only on a fragment of life and wrongfully believe we are watching the big picture. We sometimes have blind faith in what we are seeing is what the life is all about. If we could just step back and see the life as a whole, then we would know these fragments are all linked and entangled to form a true life we are living in.
What would be the fundamentals in our lives? The answer will be everything that are around us from the mountains to oceans. Here are humans, animals and plants. Also, people with different skin color, religion, languages, and with disabilities are all mixed together to form one group. All of these are the underlying fundamentals. Looking at these fundamentals gives us the true insight on the nature of our lives. We often miss out the big picture by seeking immediate gains only. It is the time for us to give a careful think in the fundamentals and essence of our living.
