20 two-word lessons from Start-Up

START-UP, the Korean drama, lives up to its hype.

For Netflix suggestions, I don’t usually gravitate towards K-drama. I ideally lean on watching documentaries,  thinking that I could learn so much more from them than any other genre.  But well, this Korean drama surprised me.

The show personally resonates with my combined  liking for:

  • Shark Tank (a reality tv show about business pitching), 
  • my growing fascination of the Tech Industry,  and
  • appreciation for character development as seen in each of the profile of Dal-mi, Dosan and Ji Pyeong. 

Other occasional mainstays like –  a complex love story,  family-oriented plot, and *cough* tall good-looking oppa’s make the show all the more interesting and intriguing to watch.

20 two-word lessons I learned from Start-up:

I suggest that you read this part slowly. Though these words are few, they carry weight.

On self:

  1. Start something
  2. Finish well
  3. Know yourself
  4. Permit weakness
  5. Grow strong

On work: 

  1. Work smart
  2. Team up
  3. Think rationally
  4. Seize opportunity
  5. Accept correction

  4. Revenge not
  5. Protect family

On Relationships:

Learnings about relationships may be further discussed and dissected in another article. Trip mo ba? If so, susulat ako. haha! Team ______ po ako. haha!

This K-drama ends tonight, but our lives will continue. May we learn to love without fear. May we learn to live without regrets. And that may each two-word truth, cause us to remember Truth Himself 🙂

Sincerely,
Seo Ja-mi (haha)
