Feb. 15, 2025 | By a Falun Dafa practitioner in South Korea
Before she began practicing Falun Dafa, Dr. Kim said she could never imagine going out in the freezing cold before dawn. However, once she began practicing, she started waking up at 4:30 a.m. to do the exercises. She used to be exhausted after work, but now she feels revitalized. Even the post-surgery complications from her breast cancer operation disappeared. She can now eat foods she once avoided, such as ice cream and cold drinks.
(Minghui.org) Dr. Kim Hyun-jin, an organic chemistry Ph.D. in Busan, practices the Falun Dafa exercises every day from 10 a.m. to noon at a public square on Dongbaek Island in Haeundae, Busan. Regardless of the weather, she demonstrates the five sets of Falun Dafa exercises accompanied by the practice’s gentle music. Having practiced Falun Dafa for 17 years, this has become an essential part of her daily routine.
Finding Answers to Life
Dr. Kim worked as a postdoctoral researcher in the U.S. and later became a university professor in Korea. Born into a wealthy family, she never lacked for anything but she constantly questioned the purpose of life. Unable to find an answer, she felt lost and had a sense of emptiness.
To seek clarity, she made numerous efforts, including daily 30-minute meditation sessions during her research work. However, the void remained. She even considered becoming a Buddhist nun and visited Donghak Temple in Daejeon, but ultimately left, still searching for answers.
Zhuan Falun Is Amazing
After reading Zhuan Falun, Falun Dafa’s main text, Dr. Kim found the answer. She said, “As a scientist, how Zhuan Falun explains the universe deeply resonated with me. I realized that the smallest fundamental substances forming the universe also embody the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion- Forbearance. When people live by these principles, they align with the universe and naturally experience inner peace and stability.”
After reading Zhuan Falun twice, Dr. Kim was convinced that practicing Falun Dafa was the key to understanding life. She found answers to why humans exist, where they are ultimately headed, and how spiritual improvement leads to enlightenment.
Her Daughter’s Eyes Recover
Dr. Kim’s daughter suffered from severe amblyopia (lazy eye), and her tutor told them about Falun Dafa.
She recalled, “I remember reading a flyer that said Falun Dafa opens all energy channels in the body, absorbs cosmic energy, and purifies the body rapidly. If what the flyer said was true, then Falun Dafa was truly remarkable.”
Intrigued, she visited the Korean Falun Dafa website (ko.falundafa.org) to learn the exercises and purchased Zhuan Falun. Within a month, her daughter’s eyesight was restored to normal. Her daughter diligently read Zhuan Falun with her mother and practiced the exercises every day.
A Renewed Life
Before she began practicing Falun Dafa, Dr. Kim said she could never imagine going out in the freezing cold before dawn. However, once she began practicing, she started waking up at 4:30 a.m. to do the exercises. She used to be exhausted after work, but now she feels revitalized. Even the post-surgery complications from her breast cancer operation disappeared. She can now eat foods she once avoided, such as ice cream and cold drinks.
Spiritually, she felt much lighter. “Following the principles of Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance keeps my mind steady and strengthens my willpower. In cultivation, I learned that when I let go of attachments, my body also improves.” She added, “Before, I struggled with resentment. But once I truly let go of that feeling, I noticed my once tense body relaxed. Letting go of resentment led to tangible physical changes.”
Dr. Kim is respected by her family, who witnessed her transformation firsthand. She believes that moral elevation is the most significant improvement she gained from practicing. “Sincerity, kindness, and perseverance through hardships lead to a higher realm of understanding.”

Editor’s Note: Dear readers, do you know that Falun Dafa, originally from China, is currently practiced by people in over 100 countries? But in China, since Jul. 20, 1999, Falun Gong is defamed, slandered and persecuted due to the Chinese Communist Party’s fear of Falun Gong’s rapidly growing popularity. Jiang Zemin, former head of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), perceived the spiritual discipline’s growing popularity as a threat to the CCP’s atheistic ideology.
