==Childhood==
{{quotebox|Where does Father come from? In his childhood, he lived deep in the [[North Korea]]n countryside, in a mountain valley, a place called [[Chung Ju]]. He was a small king; he went all over the valley catching every kind of animal. He really explored the area. There is no fish he didn't know. His radius was a ten-mile area, a big territory for a child. If he didn't know everything about the area-who was living there and what they were doing-he couldn't sleep. Every morning he would go out and explore some more. That is the kind of personality he has. When there was a bully who gave a hard time to the other children, even though Father was very small, he fought against him and protected the smaller children. - Rev. [[Sun Myung Moon]], ''In Yun and Encounter'' [http://www.tparents.org/Moon-Talks/sunmyungmoon90/901104.htm]}}
