The mother of Jung, kyung hwa who is a violinist liked the
music, so taught her children naturally.
She taught her seven children the piano all the same.
As children show their interest to other fields such as violin,
cello, command, she educated them according to their talent.
Jung, kyung hwa was very keen of hearing from childhood out
of the common.
She began to play the piano when she was four years old.
But she couldn¡¯t get interested in the piano.
When she got a violin as a present by chance, she loved it
and held it all day.
She started to show her talent on playing violin, and musician
who watched her playing paid attention calling her talented
violinist.
But she hated to be called genius.
When she went to study in the U.S., she attended the Juilliard
School living with her sisters in the small apartment.
She used to practice playing violin in the small toilet every
day.
But her mother and sisters didn¡¯t know the reason.
She became the famous violinist in the world, and used to
say that she hated to be heard talented when she was interviewed.
Mother, who thought it strange, asked why she doesn¡¯t like
to be called talented.
Then she answered like this.
¡°Do you know why I practice in the small toilet all day?
There was only violin and I.
When I was satisfied with playing, I smiled at the mirror.
Otherwise, I cried.
Without this hard exercise, I couldn¡¯t enjoy this fame. People
used to say ¡®she¡¯s talented, or she was born talented.¡¯ ,
but the most important thing is the endless effort.¡±
