The long awaited book,
¡º Freshwater Fish Yeolha Diary ¡»
(DainArt, 2004)
Author, Dae-Min Kim
" I read this book with deep appreciation. This book is a systematic and enlightening book to make us realize the importance of water and the creatures living in the water. This book, which arranged the diaries for 12 years and that began when Dae-Min Kim was 5 years old, can be unique in regards to the water ecosystem of Korea. " Gil-Jin Lim(1946~2005)

¡ß Kim recorded how precious and
valuable various creatures such as fish living in our nature are, and he wants
to share his view with other people in this book.
¡ß
Kim recorded the maps of the places where he surveyed and also the list of
collected species in detail. He has done something in which even adult
scientists have difficulties.
¡ß
Kim wrote his diary with great support and love of his family including his
parents, grandmother, and elder sister.
" We may count ourselves lucky to have this unique and vigorous young Biologist, Kim, like a comet..." O-Gil Kwon(1940 ~ )
There should be more young
researchers who can write this sort of book for Korea to be an
advanced country in terms of science. If we
have more environment-friendly family as such, it is clear that our environment
will be more constantly preserved and the future will be brighter. You will realize the value of
life, the beauty of nature, the importance of ecosystem, and the meaning of
love in a refreshing way through this book.
