There is a teenage boy who gave up going to high school to take care of his sick family and jumped into the livelihood front.
After trying hard to achieve your dream without being beaten by difficult environments, you will become a college student before your peers in the new year of 2025.
Reporter Yoon Ji-A shared the boy's day.

A young-faced boy attaches black tinting paper to the vehicle.
The skilled worker is 18-year-old Yong-il.I gave up going to
high school and entered the livelihood front at just 16.
This is to take care of my grandfather, who has difficulty in daily life due to Parkinson's disease, and my father, who was diagnosed with grade 2 brain lesion disorder in a car accident a few years ago.
A situation in which there is no mother due to the separation of parents.
At one point, he had to handle the so-called "three jobs" for 15 hours a day, including work for security companies, delivery services, and various part-time jobs.
[Kim Abuse / President of Sunting Company: I always do it sincerely, and I have a lot of attitude to learn. He's like a son. Since he's my friend's son, I'm more interested in him than others.]
The three generations lived on each other.
The situation got worse when Yong-il's father passed away last month.
Even though my daily life was difficult due to disability, I got into an accident while riding a delivery motorcycle to help me make a living.
[Lee Yong-il: Why are you like this to me?] There was a time when I was working. When I get some time off while working, others will be in high school now and having fun and enjoying the festival....]
Even in the face of a difficult reality, Yong-il dreams of becoming a paramedic.
I studied with less sleep toward that dream and got into the GED this summer.
Then, I will receive a notice of acceptance from the Department of Emergency Rescue at the university and become a university student before my friends next year.
[Lee Yong-il: You looked like a hero. No matter how hard and painful I was, I could go to the hospital whenever I had them.Wouldn't I be able to get out of this bottom if I went to college and achieved the goals I wanted?]
The head of a boy who takes care of his family and takes a step closer to his dream by firmly overcoming an environment where hope is hard to find.Although
is always too much to prevent the present, Yong-il looks bright waiting for the 2025 New Year.
