By Dr. JAE TAECK HUH Ph.D. and Dr. HYUN SOOK YOON Ph.D.

What They Don't Teach You in School- A Lesson in the Essence of Life for the Youth
We spend a significant portion of our lives in school. We pass countless exams, complete endless assignments, and spend our days memorizing and learning predetermined answers. Yet, when we are suddenly thrown into the middle of real life, we find ourselves asking: "Why do I have to live?""How should I live?""What kind of life do I truly want?"
This book begins with those very questions.Life does not offer clear answers like a math problem.It's not like a history textbook where we memorize what has already happened.Life is a journey in which we must ask our own questions and find our own path in our own way.But no one ever taught us how to do that.And because no one showed us how, many of us lose our way and wander.
What They Don't Teach You in School is a guidebook for young people who feel lost.This book talks about the essence of life-truths that are not included in textbooks.It shares how to live true to yourself, beyond grades and achievements.It explores the meaning of existence rather than chasing money and fame.It helps you find direction rather than just accelerating.And it teaches you the art of living as your whole self among others.
You are an incredibly precious being.But sometimes, this society pushes you into endless comparison and competition, ignoring that preciousness.Your self-esteem may break down, your emotions may feel out of control, and your life may start to drift meaninglessly.
To those who feel this way, this book gently reaches out and says: "It's okay to live slowly but solidly.""The things that truly matter lie beyond the classroom walls."
This book is structured around 10 themes: Self-awareness and emotional regulation, Philosophical thinking, Practical life skills, Digital-age literacy, Relationships and communication, Careers and purpose, Travel and experience, Mental health and spirituality, Creative expression, and Sustainable living.
These are things we were never properly taught-but absolutely need to know.
This book doesn't just aim to deliver knowledge.It seeks to share insights about life in the language of youth, with emotional depth and sincerity.Sometimes gently, sometimes firmly, it invites you to reflect on the fundamental questions of existence.
Wherever you are, whatever crossroad you're standing at, this book will stay by your side and walk with you.These are the things no one ever taught you-but things you absolutely need to know.
And now, you can find them all here, within these pages.
