Bench

and the City of Cedar Rapids.

This bench commemorates the spirit of Grand Master Woojin Jung, who at age 29, came from Korea to America with only $35 to pursue the American dream. Alone and penniless, he worked as a gas station attendant. Each day, he would come lean on this tree, taking in the free smell of chicken from KFC. On Fridays, he ate his one big meal of the week for 99 cents. This tree represents the hardships he endured as a young man which developed his remarkable spirit. His indomitable spirit led him to become a successful martial artist, businessman, and founder of several charities. To this day, he returns to this tree, hugging in its renewing energy. His Tree of Inspiration is a humbling testament that believing in yourself can take you anywhere in this world.

A work in progress, a donated gift of artwork to the city of Cedar Rapids.
