At the conclusion of the ceremony, Jin Yule delivered a closing address entitled “Calm and Composed, the Future is Long.” He encouraged graduates to remain calm and composed on their future journeys, even in the midst of busy and demanding circumstances. He noted that “calm and composed, the future is long” serves as a remedy for impatience, helping individuals preserve inner richness and depth while staying committed to their pursuit of self-worth. He further emphasized that this mindset reflects a life guided by genuine passion, which helps build a meaningful inner world and sustains energy and depth in life. Finally, he expressed his sincere hope that graduates would carry enduring passion and strength, maintain a composed mindset, and move steadily forward in life—free from impatience and utilitarian concerns—so that their careers and lives may flourish in the long run.
May all graduates carry their dreams and aspirations as they set sail toward the wider world. On their new journey of life, may they grow like the summer sun—vibrant, steady, composed, and courageous—moving forward with firm steps and toward a bright future.
