I sincerely apologize for my lack of prudence and carelessness on this meaningful Independence Day.

I would like to express my sincerest apologies for my lack of consideration and recklessness on such a meaningful occasion as Korea’s National Liberation Day.

I am deeply reflecting on my lack of historical awareness. I will study more in the areas that I usually lack, and I will be careful and careful not to repeat this by thinking and acting.

I am currently reflecting deeply on my lack of awareness regarding historical matters. I will take my time to study the areas that I usually lack in, and I promise to be careful not to repeat such mistake by acting with great caution.

Once again, I apologize.”
