Don't Cry, Tonj

3
00:01:02,629 --> 00:01:05,898
This film tells the story of a man who
showed us how a human being

4
00:01:05,899 --> 00:01:09,001
could be light to another human being.

Conventual Francisco Yangpyeong Monastery

6
00:01:17,043 --> 00:01:19,778
At a Catholic monastery frequented
by cancer patients,
Conventual Francisco Yangpyeong Monastery

7
00:01:23,650 --> 00:01:27,219
a small concert takes places
under the autumn sun.

8
00:01:30,056 --> 00:01:32,424
The man is a terminal cancer patient.

9
00:01:37,363 --> 00:01:38,564
And now, the 2009 Yangsuri Conventual...

10

And now, the 2009 Yangsuri Conventual...
Father Lee Tae-seok (48)

Father Lee Tae-seok (48)

13
00:01:51,044 --> 00:01:54,713
we will begin our autumn concert
with many beautiful...

14
00:02:23,042 --> 00:02:26,311
His last days are quickly approaching.

15
00:02:27,647 --> 00:02:32,518
This man seems to be vomiting
out his life as he sings.

16
00:03:23,836 --> 00:03:29,708
And three months later, his passionate
life of 48 years came to an end.

17
00:03:33,046 --> 00:03:36,048
Gangdong-gu, Seoul

18
00:03:38,451 --> 00:03:41,620
It has been half a month
since he passed away.

19
00:03:42,655 --> 00:03:46,124
But, there are those who
still cannot let him go.

Shin Myeong-nam (85)
Father Lee Tae-seok's Mother

21
00:03:48,361 --> 00:03:52,731
Sending off a child is too much for her to bear.
Shin Myeong-nam (85)
Father Lee Tae-seok's Mother

22

Shin Myeong-nam (85)
Father Lee Tae-seok's Mother

23
00:04:08,815 --> 00:04:13,585
This mother is unable to find
closure in her heart.

24
00:04:13,620 --> 00:04:17,389
I asked him if he knew who I was,

25
00:04:17,423 --> 00:04:18,790
and he nodded his head.

26
00:04:19,726 --> 00:04:24,496
I still wasn't sure if he recognized me,
so I asked, "Who am I?"

27
00:04:24,530 --> 00:04:26,598
and he said "Mom."

28
00:04:26,633 --> 00:04:30,302
That word was the last I heard from him...

29
00:04:36,542 --> 00:04:40,445
Salesian Society Catholic Cemetery
Damyang, Jeonnam

30
00:04:42,849 --> 00:04:49,721
Father Lee Tae-seok was the 9th of 10 children.
He lost his father when he was only 9 years old.

31
00:04:50,356 --> 00:04:53,325
His mother raised her 10 children
by working as a seamstress.

32
00:04:54,260 --> 00:04:56,728
Poverty followed young Tae-seok,

33
00:04:56,763 --> 00:05:00,165
but he studied hard,
and entered medical school.

34
00:05:04,237 --> 00:05:07,406
His graduation from medical school was
a dream come true for his mother.
Graduated from Inje University in 1987
Internship completed

35
00:05:07,407 --> 00:05:08,974
The hope of the family rested
on his shoulders.

36
00:05:11,010 --> 00:05:11,743
But he laid it all down,
became a priest,

37
00:05:11,744 --> 00:05:15,147
But he laid it all down,
became a priest,
2001 Ordained as a priest

38
00:05:15,148 --> 00:05:15,647
But he laid it all down,
became a priest,

39
00:05:16,516 --> 00:05:20,686
and left for the poorest place on earth.

40
00:05:30,029 --> 00:05:35,500
As a seminary student, Lee Tae-seok goes
through Kenya to war-torn Sudan.

41
00:05:36,436 --> 00:05:41,707
The civil war that began in 1983 split the country
of Sudan into north and south.

42
00:05:47,847 --> 00:05:51,717
He chose to go to South Sudan
where the damage was greatest.

43
00:06:02,495 --> 00:06:06,398
Southern Sudan

44
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:11,470
More than 2 million people lost their
lives as a result of clashes

45
00:06:11,504 --> 00:06:13,972
between the native peoples of
the south and Arabs in the north.

46
00:06:15,208 --> 00:06:20,579
There, Lee Tae-seok witnesses
the gruesome shadows of death.

47
00:06:37,130 --> 00:06:43,402
Those who survived were helpless against even
small diseases as a result of starvation

48
00:06:43,436 --> 00:06:47,706
and died without treatment.

49
00:06:55,248 --> 00:06:58,817
Children drank polluted water from the river.

50
00:07:03,189 --> 00:07:09,161
Lee Tae-seok resolves to return to this
desolate land upon ordination as a priest.

51
00:07:10,797 --> 00:07:17,669
When I first arrived, I got the feeling that

52
00:07:17,703 --> 00:07:19,971
this must be the poorest place on earth.

53
00:07:21,007 --> 00:07:26,778
Although I'm lacking in so many aspects,
I felt Icould do something here.

54
00:07:26,813 --> 00:07:28,980
At that moment... I knew I had to be here.

55
00:07:31,784 --> 00:07:32,017
2001 Mud Hut Clinic

56
00:07:32,018 --> 00:07:35,120
In November 2001, Lee Tae-seok
returned to Tonj as a priest.
2001 Mud Hut Clinic

57
00:07:35,121 --> 00:07:36,588
In November 2001, Lee Tae-seok
returned to Tonj as a priest.

58
00:07:38,124 --> 00:07:41,993
He was the only priest in Tonj.

59
00:07:42,495 --> 00:07:44,896
I fell from a tree.

60
00:07:56,242 --> 00:07:57,576
Hang in there

61
00:08:00,279 --> 00:08:04,449
News that anyone can live
if you meet him spread quickly.

62
00:08:04,984 --> 00:08:07,953
There were patients who
walked 100km to see him.

63
00:08:10,289 --> 00:08:10,789
About 30-40 patients were sitting around
waiting to be seen by Father Lee Tae-seok.

64
00:08:10,790 --> 00:08:17,195
About 30-40 patients were sitting around

Lee Jae-hyun-President
Sudan Children's Scholarship Fund

65
00:08:17,196 --> 00:08:19,297
About 30-40 patients were sitting around
waiting to be seen by Father Lee Tae-seok.

66
00:08:19,298 --> 00:08:24,302
There were people from nearby,

67
00:08:24,303 --> 00:08:33,411
but also those who walked 2-3 days
to get here and waited overnight.

68
00:08:33,412 --> 00:08:41,486
He saw more than 300 patients a day.

69
00:08:44,023 --> 00:08:45,590
As the number of patients grew,
the priest decides to build a hospital.

70
00:08:45,591 --> 00:08:48,460
As the number of patients grew,
the priest decides to build a hospital.
Hospital plan drawn by Father Lee Tae-seok

71
00:08:51,531 --> 00:08:58,103
There was not a single nail or brick in the area,
but the drawing slowly becomes a reality.

72
00:09:00,273 --> 00:09:02,140
We made the bricks ourselves.

73
00:09:05,177 --> 00:09:12,751
We bought cement, mixed sand
from the river, and made them.

74
00:09:15,788 --> 00:09:20,759
They bought cement from Kenya,
and carried sand from the Tonj River.

75
00:09:26,098 --> 00:09:31,570
But, he didn't work alone under
the 50 degree Celsius heat.

76
00:09:33,606 --> 00:09:36,174
The community worked together.

2007

78
00:09:49,922 --> 00:09:53,425
This is the new 12-room hospital.

79
00:09:56,028 --> 00:09:58,797
It is packed with patients from early in the morning.

80
00:10:00,032 --> 00:10:03,802
TB and malaria patients and pregnant mothers
make up the greatest number of patients.

81
00:10:04,637 --> 00:10:09,007
There are even assistant medical
staff sorting emergency patients.

82
00:10:24,857 --> 00:10:26,725
He has a high fever.

83
00:10:28,060 --> 00:10:29,728
Many die because of Malaria.

84
00:10:31,063 --> 00:10:34,399
Malaria is the 1st cause of death.

85
00:10:34,433 --> 00:10:39,270
He learned the Dinka language so that he could
understand patients' exact symptoms.

86
00:10:41,574 --> 00:10:48,847
He was fighting with stones... Look here,

87
00:10:49,882 --> 00:10:52,350
he got hit by a rock and it tore open.

88
00:10:55,087 --> 00:10:58,356
Don't move or you're in trouble.

89
00:11:06,532 --> 00:11:08,099
Then, you're in trouble too.

90
00:11:14,540 --> 00:11:17,208
It's hard to see because his skin is dark.

91
00:11:22,148 --> 00:11:24,516
- All done.
- Then why does it still hurt?

92
00:11:25,851 --> 00:11:27,419
Ow! Why are you hitting me?

93
00:11:31,557 --> 00:11:35,026
Patients who come at night are
those who traveled for days

94
00:11:35,061 --> 00:11:37,429
or emergency patients.

95
00:11:41,067 --> 00:11:44,736
Father Lee Tae-seok has
never sent them away.

96
00:11:45,571 --> 00:11:50,742
In this way, he brightens up
the lives of the sick and poor.

97
00:11:52,678 --> 00:11:53,344
When we go to tell him of a patient (at night),

he never makes us knock on
the door more than once.

101
00:12:00,519 --> 00:12:06,424
He must be tired and annoyed
and unable to wake up sometimes

102
00:12:06,425 --> 00:12:13,798
since he works throughout the day,
but he always did his very best.

Why did he leave a life of security
and come to Arica?
Nairobi, Kenya February 2010

105
00:12:19,605 --> 00:12:24,008
Why did he leave a life of security
and come to Arica?

106
00:12:26,846 --> 00:12:32,016
We decided to follow the road Lee Tae-seok
took as a seminary student.

107
00:12:33,552 --> 00:12:37,422
But, on the day, we headed to Tonj
in South Sudan through Nairobi,

108
00:12:37,456 --> 00:12:40,024
we received an emergency call.

109
00:12:42,061 --> 00:12:42,794
We have to pass through Rumbek
to reach Tonj, but we can't because

We have to pass through Rumbek
to reach Tonj, but we can't because
Father Lee Seung-joon

there is a gunfight, and they are
stopping all vehicles right now.
Father Lee Seung-joon

112
00:12:47,533 --> 00:12:54,672
there is a gunfight, and they are
stopping all vehicles right now.

113
00:12:54,673 --> 00:12:59,644
We need to wait at least two weeks and see.

February 21st 2010 gunfight

February 21st 2010 gunfight

117
00:13:11,724 --> 00:13:14,793
South Sudan's government forces engaged
in a gunfight with civilians

118
00:13:14,827 --> 00:13:16,995
while trying to stop tribal conflicts.

119
00:13:17,429 --> 00:13:21,566
9 soldiers and 21 civilians
lost their lives that day.

120
00:13:22,635 --> 00:13:27,005
The U.N. advised foreigners
to evacuate immediately.

Vicinity of Tonj in South Sudan

122
00:13:38,984 --> 00:13:43,221
We made a 2-day detour to
the south to reach Tonj.

123
00:13:49,361 --> 00:13:54,032
We began to see people as we neared
the area where the gunfight took place.

124
00:13:57,369 --> 00:14:00,572
They were holding sharp weapons.

125
00:14:05,311 --> 00:14:09,280
They said that they were going to Tonj
to pay back the damage done to them.

126
00:14:13,719 --> 00:14:16,387
We're going to Tonj (to fight).

127
00:14:16,422 --> 00:14:19,490
They, at Tonj, started the fight
and tried to take our cows,

128
00:14:20,226 --> 00:14:21,993
and people died fighting them.

129
00:14:23,028 --> 00:14:25,296
How many died?

130
00:14:25,331 --> 00:14:27,699
22

131
00:14:27,733 --> 00:14:29,500
- 22?
- Yes.

132
00:14:29,535 --> 00:14:33,605
- I'm asking about people, not cows.
- Yes, 22 people died.

133
00:14:36,041 --> 00:14:40,411
Tribal conflicts are another factor
that threatens peace in Sudan.

Entrance to Tonj

135
00:14:44,850 --> 00:14:46,985
Tonj looked dangerous from the start.
Entrance to Tonj

136
00:14:46,986 --> 00:14:48,186
Tonj looked dangerous from the start.

137
00:14:54,760 --> 00:14:58,529
This is Tonj River where children
drank contaminated water.

138
00:15:04,803 --> 00:15:09,407
We can spot people with guns
amidst the peaceful environment.

139
00:15:14,013 --> 00:15:17,315
They all have their guns loaded.

140
00:15:21,820 --> 00:15:26,624
What they are trying to protect is
their 1st possession-the cow.

141
00:15:31,130 --> 00:15:31,262
The nomadic Dinka tribe who live in Tonj
is the tallest tribe in the world.

143
00:15:35,467 --> 00:15:36,534
The nomadic Dinka tribe who live in Tonj
is the tallest tribe in the world.

144
00:15:37,636 --> 00:15:40,204
People over 2m tall is a common sight.

145
00:15:42,274 --> 00:15:45,910
Their eyes are speculative towards foreigners.

146
00:15:47,346 --> 00:15:52,317
They have Vs clearly marked on their forehead.
These marks were made with a heated knife.

147
00:15:52,651 --> 00:15:56,321
Dinka fighters consider tears
the greatest disgrace.

148
00:15:58,157 --> 00:16:01,592
Northern and Southern Sudan made
a peace treaty in 2005.

149
00:16:01,794 --> 00:16:05,430
Since then, many people have returned
and villages are sprouting up,

150
00:16:05,464 --> 00:16:08,499
but life still seems like a struggle.

151
00:16:10,669 --> 00:16:11,002
Tonj Don Bosco Hospital

152
00:16:11,003 --> 00:16:13,071
In this small village halfway around the world,
we met Father Lee Tae-seok.
Tonj Don Bosco Hospital

153
00:16:13,072 --> 00:16:16,474
In this small village halfway around the world,
we met Father Lee Tae-seok.

154
00:16:22,314 --> 00:16:25,316
This is the Salesian Society
where this priest lived.

155
00:16:25,317 --> 00:16:26,351
This is the Salesian Society
where this priest lived.
Tonj Salesian Society

156
00:16:26,352 --> 00:16:28,219
Tonj Salesian Society

157
00:16:28,220 --> 00:16:30,588
It is run by the Salecio Order that
mostly runs programs for teens.
Tonj Salesian Society

158
00:16:30,589 --> 00:16:33,057
It is run by the Salecio Order that
mostly runs programs for teens.

159
00:16:34,927 --> 00:16:38,763
One one side of the yard is
the hospital that he built.

160
00:16:44,737 --> 00:16:47,972
Patients referred to him as Father Jolly
after his English name.

161
00:16:47,973 --> 00:16:49,974
Patients referred to him as Father Jolly
after his English name.
Consultation Room-Dr. John Lee

162
00:16:49,975 --> 00:16:50,408
Consultation Room-Dr. John Lee

163
00:16:59,752 --> 00:17:05,757
It has been 16 months since he left Tonj,
and there hasn't been a doctor since.

164
00:17:07,393 --> 00:17:12,964
One nurse works until 1pm and only gives
out medication to those who come.

165
00:17:19,405 --> 00:17:22,540
Maternity Ward

166
00:17:22,541 --> 00:17:22,840
The absence of one man left
a great sense of emptiness.
Maternity Ward

167
00:17:22,841 --> 00:17:26,210
The absence of one man left
a great sense of emptiness.

168
00:17:34,019 --> 00:17:39,390
The people of Tonj have been filling
this emptiness by remembering him.

169
00:17:41,326 --> 00:17:44,529
People continue to come to the hospital

170
00:17:44,730 --> 00:17:49,100
even though they already
know he has passed away.

171
00:17:51,737 --> 00:17:52,270
People die only once,

172
00:17:52,271 --> 00:17:55,673
People die only once,
Villager

173
00:17:55,674 --> 00:17:56,107
People die only once,

174
00:18:05,684 --> 00:18:08,319
and I should have been taken
away before the priest.

175
00:18:11,790 --> 00:18:14,258
Father Jolly still has a lot of work left to do.

176
00:18:17,062 --> 00:18:20,331
Although he's gone, we're still
going to believe in God.

177
00:18:20,399 --> 00:18:25,536
We hope that Father Jolly will
have a happy life in heaven.

178
00:18:31,110 --> 00:18:37,582
11pm, someone prepares to
sleep in the hospital yard.

179
00:18:39,218 --> 00:18:42,086
They are trying their best to protect

180
00:18:42,121 --> 00:18:48,192
the place they've built together with the priest-
the place that has protected their lives...

181
00:18:59,037 --> 00:19:03,741
Beyond the wall,
there is another building.

182
00:19:04,476 --> 00:19:05,543
It is the inpatient clinic for TB patients.

183
00:19:05,544 --> 00:19:08,579
It is the inpatient clinic for TB patients.
TB Inpatient Clinic

184
00:19:08,580 --> 00:19:08,646
It is the inpatient clinic for TB patients.

185
00:19:09,781 --> 00:19:13,651
Those sleeping in the yard are
family members of the patient.

186
00:19:18,690 --> 00:19:22,160
Each day starts out pretty
much the same way.

187
00:19:25,998 --> 00:19:28,966
Even though they are sent
home to prevent contagion,

188
00:19:29,001 --> 00:19:32,470
they insist that families
cannot be separated.

189
00:19:39,311 --> 00:19:43,181
The priest conducted
mobile clinics once a week.

190
00:19:43,215 --> 00:19:46,984
And, he brought TB patients here

191
00:19:51,123 --> 00:19:54,492
because they need to take
their medication and food.

192
00:19:55,527 --> 00:19:55,993
I can't imagine that such
a professional doctor and father

193
00:19:55,994 --> 00:20:01,199
I can't imagine that such
a professional doctor and father
Joshua Omondi / Nurse

194
00:20:01,200 --> 00:20:05,269
would take his time to go
and treat people outside.
Joshua Omondi / Nurse

195
00:20:05,270 --> 00:20:06,938
Many doctors don't do that.
Joshua Omondi / Nurse

196
00:20:06,939 --> 00:20:07,672
They usually sit at a table and see patients,
but he was an exception.
Joshua Omondi / Nurse

197
00:20:07,673 --> 00:20:13,311
They usually sit at a table and see patients,
but he was an exception.

198
00:20:14,913 --> 00:20:17,181
There's no electricity in Tonj.

199
00:20:19,218 --> 00:20:19,584
But, on the roof of the priest's quarters,
you can find a solar collector.

200
00:20:19,585 --> 00:20:22,253
But, on the roof of the priest's quarters,
you can find a solar collector.
Solar Collector

201
00:20:22,254 --> 00:20:23,821
But, on the roof of the priest's quarters,
you can find a solar collector.

202
00:20:24,256 --> 00:20:26,123
The priest installed it himself.

203
00:20:28,560 --> 00:20:32,630
And the Tonj community
benefits from the electricity.

204
00:20:35,067 --> 00:20:39,537
Did he know that he
wouldn't be coming back?

205
00:20:39,571 --> 00:20:44,642
He left memos indicating
battery life before he left.

206
00:20:47,579 --> 00:20:50,848
There's a reason why he
wanted electricity so badly.

207
00:20:51,383 --> 00:20:54,151
It's because he needed
a refrigerator to store

208
00:20:54,186 --> 00:20:56,554
vaccines that are unable to
withstand high temperatures.

209
00:20:58,290 --> 00:21:00,057
Whenever he conducted mobile clinics,

210
00:21:00,058 --> 00:21:03,794
he would take the vaccines in an ice box
and vaccinate the children.

211
00:21:09,635 --> 00:21:10,501
Nurse

212

Everything was initiated by him.

Everything was initiated by him.
(Father Lee Tae-seok)

214
00:21:14,673 --> 00:21:17,842
When I came to this place,
I found that everything was set.

215
00:21:27,653 --> 00:21:32,023
This is Tonj's only ambulance
that he used to ride.

216
00:21:35,260 --> 00:21:41,632
Every Wednesday, he drove this car
around to over 80 nomadic villages.

217
00:21:59,584 --> 00:22:03,187
Located 20 minutes away
from the Tonj Community,

218
00:22:03,522 --> 00:22:04,655
this village was a place the priest
visited whenever he could.

219
00:22:04,656 --> 00:22:07,091
this village was a place the priest
visited whenever he could.
Lychok Village Tonj, Sudan

220
00:22:07,092 --> 00:22:07,992
Lychok Village Tonj, Sudan

221
00:22:12,331 --> 00:22:15,399
People gather around as they
hear the sound of the car.

222
00:22:20,038 --> 00:22:24,809
They are blind and their bodies
are covered in wounds.

223
00:22:27,846 --> 00:22:30,614
They are leprosy patients.

224
00:22:46,765 --> 00:22:50,034
Even here, families refuse
to be separated.

225
00:22:57,576 --> 00:23:00,678
A man has a sudden seizeure.

226
00:23:12,524 --> 00:23:15,993
But there's no one to help him.

227
00:23:30,442 --> 00:23:32,810
Once the villagers have all arrived,

228
00:23:32,844 --> 00:23:38,416
they welcome their visitor and show their
thankfulness in their own special way.

229
00:23:51,062 --> 00:23:57,134
How do they remember Father Lee Tae-seok
whom they haven't seen in over a year?

230
00:24:02,507 --> 00:24:05,176
(picture) Do you recognize him?

231
00:24:05,210 --> 00:24:07,278
Father Jolly

232
00:24:07,312 --> 00:24:10,681
- Do you really know who he is?
- Of course, he spent a lot Of time with us.

233
00:24:10,715 --> 00:24:13,484
These clothes were also given
to me by Father Jolly.

234
00:24:13,518 --> 00:24:16,687
They have kept me safe from
the cold and mosquitoes.

235
00:24:23,028 --> 00:24:29,800
I was suffering from a disease that caused my
throat to swell, but Father Jolly cured me.

236
00:24:29,835 --> 00:24:37,508
He took me to the hospital, gave me
medicine and treated me.

237
00:24:37,742 --> 00:24:43,214
The priest was like a father to us.

238
00:24:43,248 --> 00:24:54,425
He not only helped the poor,
but helped anyone who needed help.

239
00:25:10,842 --> 00:25:12,576
2006

240
00:25:12,577 --> 00:25:13,644
On mobile clinic days, nearby villagers
would come together to greet him.
2006

241
00:25:13,645 --> 00:25:18,849
On mobile clinic days, nearby villagers
would come together to greet him.

242
00:25:19,618 --> 00:25:22,853
But, there were some
who couldn't make it.

243
00:25:24,322 --> 00:25:29,493
They were lepers who had lost
their limbs and unable to walk.

244
00:25:33,965 --> 00:25:40,037
Before Father Jolly, they died
without even knowing why.

245
00:25:43,742 --> 00:25:47,311
It looks like she had a fracture.
But it hardened because

246
00:25:47,479 --> 00:25:49,747
she didn't get treatment,
so she's unable to walk.

247
00:25:50,882 --> 00:25:55,052
He built a village where leprosy
patients can live together,

248
00:25:55,186 --> 00:25:58,255
and also found medication to stop
the progress of the disease.

249
00:25:59,491 --> 00:26:03,761
And he was also the only outsider
who listened to them.

250
00:26:10,268 --> 00:26:14,138
He never visited the lepers'
village empty-handed.

251
00:26:47,405 --> 00:26:51,241
The leprosy patients really appreciated

252
00:26:51,376 --> 00:26:54,411
the kindness he showed them.

253
00:27:07,325 --> 00:27:09,927
There's hardly any visitors
because it is a leper colony.
Hong Jin-ki / Doosan Co. / 2007 visit

254
00:27:09,928 --> 00:27:10,794
So, they really liked it when
the priest came to visit.
Hong Jin-ki / Doosan Co. / 2007 visit

255
00:27:10,795 --> 00:27:14,932
So, they really liked it when
the priest came to visit.

256
00:27:15,166 --> 00:27:21,572
They would tell him about everyday
matters and the priest

257
00:27:21,606 --> 00:27:23,741
would listen to all of their stories.

258
00:27:24,676 --> 00:27:30,180
One of the older men said
that Father Lee Tae-seok

259
00:27:30,415 --> 00:27:33,317
was like God he read
about in the Bible.

260
00:27:33,852 --> 00:27:36,854
He is the only person who
comes to give us rest.

261
00:27:36,988 --> 00:27:38,722
That really touched me.

262
00:27:41,660 --> 00:27:45,829
His love for the leprosy
patients was really great.

263
00:27:46,564 --> 00:27:49,433
He would remove the puss
and wrap them with bandages,

264
00:27:49,567 --> 00:27:53,037
but their feet were always full of scars
because they walked around barefoot.

Father Lee Tae-seok's drawing of a leper's foot

266
00:27:54,439 --> 00:27:59,576
Father Lee Tae-seok comes up with a brilliant idea.
He decides to give them shoes.
Father Lee Tae-seok's drawing of a leper's foot

267
00:28:01,946 --> 00:28:04,181
The priest drew out each person's foot

268
00:28:04,215 --> 00:28:09,586
to make the best-fitting
shoes for each of them.

269
00:28:10,321 --> 00:28:13,490
He ordered leather sandals from Kenya.

270
00:28:13,525 --> 00:28:18,595
The leprosy patients were each given
a one-of-a-kind shoe that fit them perfectly.

271
00:28:21,132 --> 00:28:24,501
August 2007

272
00:28:26,237 --> 00:28:29,006
Father Lee Tae-seok takes
the hand of one of the lepers.

273
00:28:33,945 --> 00:28:35,212
What's your name?

274
00:28:35,246 --> 00:28:38,348
There's nothing that
comes between them.

275
00:28:42,353 --> 00:28:45,622
What is that? go see what it is...

276
00:28:49,961 --> 00:28:54,932
Father Jolly came to this poor place

277
00:28:54,966 --> 00:28:59,937
Father Jolly saved the poor people

278
00:29:01,206 --> 00:29:06,276
The priest always looked forward to
his time with the leprosy patients.

279
00:29:07,612 --> 00:29:10,781
Although they don't have much,
they live happily

280
00:29:11,816 --> 00:29:18,088
and try their best in their spiritual walk.

281
00:29:19,824 --> 00:29:23,794
They don't think you have to be
unhappy just because you're poor.

282
00:29:31,136 --> 00:29:32,536
After Father Lee's death,

283
00:29:32,670 --> 00:29:35,672
February 2010

284
00:29:36,441 --> 00:29:39,910
the people return to their normal lives.

285
00:29:46,951 --> 00:29:51,155
We gave out photos of the priest
to the leprosy patients.

286
00:29:59,330 --> 00:30:03,300
They seemed to cherish it
more than any other gift.

287
00:30:13,478 --> 00:30:16,280
Asunda is blind.

288
00:30:21,286 --> 00:30:25,355
This is a photo of Father Jolly.
What do you think?

289
00:30:28,726 --> 00:30:30,127
Asunda / leprosy patient

290
00:30:30,128 --> 00:30:32,396
It reminds me of Father Jolly.
Asunda / leprosy patient

291
00:30:53,618 --> 00:30:59,289
Lee Tae-seok's first encounter with lepers
was in Sudan as a seminary student.

292
00:31:00,158 --> 00:31:05,829
Even in poverty-stricken Sudan, lepers
were completely isolated from society.

293
00:31:06,364 --> 00:31:10,534
But, Father Lee Tae-seok says
he saw the image of Christ

294
00:31:10,568 --> 00:31:14,938
in their lives of thanksgiving and joy.

295
00:31:16,574 --> 00:31:19,142
Asunda looks for a place
to keep the photo.

296
00:31:19,177 --> 00:31:22,546
Turn the photo so that it's upright.

297
00:31:38,696 --> 00:31:43,867
Asunda says their lives are characterized
by tears since the priest's death.

298
00:31:47,572 --> 00:31:55,879
I am so sad because of Father Jolly.
Whenever I wake up at night, I want to cry.

299
00:31:55,914 --> 00:32:02,119
I often fall asleep thinking about, crying
and praying for him. I'm so sad.

300
00:32:02,854 --> 00:32:07,024
I don't think anyone will help
us like Father Jolly did.

301
00:32:07,058 --> 00:32:11,929
Night or day, whenever I think
about him, tears well up.

302
00:32:14,933 --> 00:32:17,134
It is the mysterious power of
the leprosy patients

303
00:32:17,168 --> 00:32:20,137
that allows me to leave everything
behind to come here,

304
00:32:20,872 --> 00:32:23,540
enables me to live happily
with no regrets,

305
00:32:23,574 --> 00:32:28,445
and enables me to experience
the Lord's existence.

306
00:32:29,981 --> 00:32:30,580
Thinking about that, I can only
bow my head in gratitude.

307
00:32:30,581 --> 00:32:34,518
Thinking about that, I can only
bow my head in gratitude.

Busan

309
00:32:49,901 --> 00:32:52,369
Taking photos is prohibited here.

310
00:32:53,404 --> 00:32:55,672
This is where lepers used
to live together.

311
00:32:57,709 --> 00:33:01,912
Even after being treated, they
continued to live in isolation.

312
00:33:02,780 --> 00:33:03,547

There is a small Catholic church
on a hill overlooking the ocean.

315
00:33:11,656 --> 00:33:15,125
There, we met a priest.
He is Father Lee Tae-seok's brother.

00:33:15,126 --> 00:33:17,160
There, we met a priest.
He is Father Lee Tae-seok's brother.

317
00:33:24,802 --> 00:33:27,637
It's pretty much frozen right now.

318
00:33:28,973 --> 00:33:33,243
- Where did you learn how to farm?
- I just...

319
00:33:37,382 --> 00:33:44,454
learned from the villagers here.

320
00:33:52,997 --> 00:33:56,466
The brothers became
interested in lepers

321
00:33:56,501 --> 00:34:00,303
through a film they saw
together in grade school.

322
00:34:05,843 --> 00:34:09,446
The film told the story of a Danish priest.

323
00:34:09,447 --> 00:34:10,247
Father Damien devoted his entire life
to caring for people with leprosy

Recognized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church

328
00:34:21,793 --> 00:34:28,732
Father Damien contracted leprosy in
his 40s, and passed away at 49.
At the time of his death October 2009-
Recognized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church

329
00:34:29,367 --> 00:34:35,038
Someone once asked him
why he chose to take

330
00:34:35,073 --> 00:34:42,145
the path of a priest,
and he told them that

331
00:34:42,980 --> 00:34:47,050
he had been affected by the film
about Father Damien

332
00:34:47,085 --> 00:34:55,058
and Jesus' words at the Last Judgement,

333
00:34:55,093 --> 00:35:01,098
Whatever you did for one of the least of
these brothers of mine, you did for me

334
00:35:01,132 --> 00:35:04,801
has always been close to his heart.

Trained as a nurse, she works at
the hospital run by the Sisters society.

340
00:35:29,160 --> 00:35:34,531
She noticed signs of a ready priest
in her brother since childhood.

341
00:35:36,467 --> 00:35:40,137
In middle school, he once asked me
for some thread and a needle,

342
00:35:40,171 --> 00:35:44,040
and when looked over to see
what he was doing,

343
00:35:44,075 --> 00:35:48,145
I saw him sewing up

344
00:35:48,179 --> 00:35:52,249
a homeless man's ripped pants.

345
00:35:52,283 --> 00:35:59,156
And in grade school, he told me he wanted to
open up an orphanage when he grew older.

346
00:36:04,228 --> 00:36:08,732
Father Lee Tae-seok spent his childhood on
this hilltop village overlooking Busan Harbor.

As the 9th of 10 children, young
Tae-seok spent a lot of time alone.

350
00:36:13,004 --> 00:36:17,841
As the 9th of 10 children, young
Tae-seok spent a lot of time alone.

351
00:36:20,845 --> 00:36:24,214
His mother was widowed when
Tae-seok was only 9

352
00:36:24,248 --> 00:36:29,219
and she raised her 10 kids as a seamstress
at the nearby Jagalchi Market.

353
00:36:35,259 --> 00:36:41,198
Young Tae-seok waited for his
mother on this hilly alleyway.

354
00:36:42,600 --> 00:36:46,670
Not being able to feed and clothe my
children well always broke my heart.

355
00:36:51,075 --> 00:36:51,875
Songdo Catholic Church

356
00:36:51,876 --> 00:36:55,178

the best playground.

358
00:36:58,583 --> 00:37:02,485
Tae-seok discovers an unexpected
talent in church.

359
00:37:03,120 --> 00:37:05,488
He learned how to play
the organ on his own.

360
00:37:08,526 --> 00:37:11,294
He seemed to be blessed
with musical talent.

361
00:37:12,129 --> 00:37:17,500
He taught himself to play the guitar,
and even wrote a few hymns.

362
00:37:18,536 --> 00:37:23,807
He composed and wrote the hymn
"Meditation" in the 9th grade.

363
00:37:24,442 --> 00:37:29,212
His faith and music captivated
the young boy's heart

364
00:37:29,247 --> 00:37:31,314
and kept him on the right path.

365
00:37:34,051 --> 00:37:37,621
And he gets accepted into
the medical school of his choice.

366
00:37:41,158 --> 00:37:46,529
When he entered medical school,
we were so excited.

367
00:37:46,564 --> 00:37:51,935
We were just so happy because even
though he came from a poor family,

368
00:37:51,969 --> 00:37:56,039
he excelled even more than
those from rich families.

369
00:38:00,611 --> 00:38:04,481
His dream of becoming a priest sprouted up
again during his time as a military surgeon.

370
00:38:06,417 --> 00:38:12,489
With one son already a priest, and a daughter
a nun, his mother strongly disapproved.

371
00:38:15,059 --> 00:38:18,194
He met with our mother at a coffee shop.
Lee Young-hee
Father Lee Tae-seok's 2nd sister

372
00:38:18,195 --> 00:38:18,828
He met with our mother at a coffee shop.

373
00:38:18,829 --> 00:38:21,131
She really opposed the idea.

374
00:38:21,132 --> 00:38:25,035
If it was anyone else's son,
they would seem holy and admirable,

375
00:38:25,036 --> 00:38:29,339
but at the time, she felt like God
was taking away not only one,

376
00:38:29,340 --> 00:38:30,840
but many of her kids.

377
00:38:30,841 --> 00:38:33,943
She told him he could get
married and move away

378
00:38:33,944 --> 00:38:37,447
or give away all his money to help
the poor, but just not this.

379
00:38:37,448 --> 00:38:40,150
Our mother begged him not
to become a priest.

380
00:38:40,151 --> 00:38:42,452
And then, he began to cry too

381
00:38:42,453 --> 00:38:46,156
and said he knew how hard it was for
her to put him through medical school,

382
00:38:46,157 --> 00:38:52,562
but he feels led towards God.

383
00:38:52,563 --> 00:38:55,865
He felt like he wasn't able to fulfill
his filial duty to his mother,

384
00:38:55,866 --> 00:38:58,835
and that broke his heart.

385
00:39:02,306 --> 00:39:08,778
You can't control God or your children.
His mother finally consented.

386
00:39:10,815 --> 00:39:14,384
But, after being ordained as a priest,

387
00:39:14,418 --> 00:39:17,787
his mother receives some
more shocking news.

388
00:39:18,823 --> 00:39:23,793
Her son applied to serve in Africa
as the first-ever Korean priest.

389
00:39:26,430 --> 00:39:31,101
I wondered why he had to go
all the way to Africa

390
00:39:31,135 --> 00:39:36,005
when there are plenty of people
he could help in Korea.

391
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:40,110
But since that's what he wanted...

392
00:39:40,945 --> 00:39:47,817
Parents can't stop their children even if
they decide to take the wrong path,

393
00:39:47,852 --> 00:39:52,322
but he wanted to do good, and I
shouldn't stop him from that.

394
00:39:52,356 --> 00:39:54,624
So, I consented and let
him do what he wanted.

395
00:39:55,359 --> 00:39:58,228
He could come back every 2 or 3 years...

396
00:39:58,963 --> 00:40:02,332
Because I was getting old,

397
00:40:02,967 --> 00:40:06,436
I wished that I would stay sick for
at least 5 days before dying

398
00:40:06,470 --> 00:40:09,439
because if I die too soon,
I won't be able to see my son...

399
00:40:09,473 --> 00:40:13,243
So I could see my son
who lives far away...

400
00:40:14,979 --> 00:40:18,448
But now, the whole situation
has been reversed...

401
00:40:21,719 --> 00:40:25,922
Meditation / Composed and written by Lee Tae-seok

402
00:40:26,690 --> 00:40:34,864
I knelt before the cross and asked the Lord

403
00:40:35,399 --> 00:40:41,371
In this world, there are those who simply dream,
and those who turn those dreams into reality.

404
00:40:42,006 --> 00:40:49,078
With tears in my eyes, I asked the Lord.

405
00:40:49,113 --> 00:40:56,386
Why are you just watching

406
00:40:56,420 --> 00:41:10,533
those who are suffering
from cold and hunger,

407
00:41:10,568 --> 00:41:24,647
those who are bleeding
and dying from warfare?

408
00:41:24,682 --> 00:41:39,062
Why must there be prisoners and prisons,

409
00:41:39,096 --> 00:41:52,876
and why must humans suffer pain?

410
00:41:52,910 --> 00:42:07,423
Amidst the silence,
I heard His voice saying

411
00:42:07,458 --> 00:42:20,136
Love, love, love, Love one another.

412
00:42:30,481 --> 00:42:32,448
There's Father Lee Tae-seok.

413
00:42:33,984 --> 00:42:35,251
Welcome

414
00:42:36,854 --> 00:42:40,189
What you own doesn't
reflect who you are.
Father Lee Tae-seok's room

415
00:42:40,190 --> 00:42:41,457
What you own doesn't
reflect who you are.

416
00:42:44,595 --> 00:42:48,364
In this tiny room on the opposite
corner of the world,

417
00:42:48,399 --> 00:42:51,868
this man has fulfilled his dreams
and seems completely content.

418
00:42:58,509 --> 00:43:00,510
Ok, no more filming

419
00:43:15,459 --> 00:43:19,829
Should we use some soybean paste
and make cabbage soup with this?

420
00:43:23,167 --> 00:43:27,837
From time to time, he misses
the place his mother dwells,

421
00:43:34,678 --> 00:43:37,847
but slowly he is becoming a part of Tonj.

422
00:43:37,881 --> 00:43:40,049
It's hard because they
can't follow me. Ha ha

423
00:43:44,888 --> 00:43:57,667
I love you, I really love you...

424
00:43:59,103 --> 00:44:00,003
It wasn't the kind of the situation where

425
00:44:00,004 --> 00:44:02,171
It wasn't the kind of the situation where
Father Park Jin-hong
Director of Teen Ministry-Daejeon Diocese 2006 Visit

426
00:44:02,172 --> 00:44:05,274
he was providing things for poor
people as an outsider from Korea,
Father Park Jin-hong
Director of Teen Ministry-Daejeon Diocese 2006 Visit

427
00:44:05,275 --> 00:44:06,943
he was providing things for poor
people as an outsider from Korea,

428
00:44:06,944 --> 00:44:09,145
but he was one of them.

429
00:44:09,146 --> 00:44:13,816
By the time I arrived, he was
already one of the Tonj people.

430
00:44:17,955 --> 00:44:24,027
Beyond the walls of the Tonj community however,
the world was still in a state of war.

431
00:44:25,462 --> 00:44:30,633
Children were recruited as child soldiers
learning violence and destruction.

432
00:44:30,668 --> 00:44:34,037
Tonj was a land of
darkness with no future.

433
00:44:38,976 --> 00:44:43,246
As the hospital settled in,
he had another dream.

434
00:44:44,281 --> 00:44:48,151
He began to build a school in
an empty lot in the village.

435
00:44:57,094 --> 00:45:02,298
Would Jesus have built a school
here first or a church?

436
00:45:06,537 --> 00:45:10,506
I think he would have
built the school first.

437
00:45:13,644 --> 00:45:13,976
A holy school where love is taught...

438
00:45:13,977 --> 00:45:16,012
A holy school where love is taught...
From Lee Tae-seok's (Will You Be My Friend)

439
00:45:16,013 --> 00:45:16,546
From Lee Tae-seok's (Will You Be My Friend)

440
00:45:16,547 --> 00:45:20,650
A school that feels like home.
From Lee Tae-seok's (Will You Be My Friend)

441
00:45:24,054 --> 00:45:30,026
If we make the roof first
with bricks like these,

442
00:45:30,060 --> 00:45:33,830
children can study even
when it's raining.

443
00:45:34,598 --> 00:45:35,665
School building demolished by bombing

444
00:45:35,666 --> 00:45:38,735
A bombed school building with only the frames
remaining was renovated into classrooms.
School building demolished by bombing

445
00:45:38,736 --> 00:45:41,537
A bombed school building with only the frames
remaining was renovated into classrooms.

446
00:45:43,273 --> 00:45:48,244
Just like the hospital,
all the villagers pitched in to help.

447
00:45:52,983 --> 00:45:55,852
Father Lee Tae-seok
was a man of his word.

448
00:46:00,224 --> 00:46:03,893
A formal school with
a 12-year curriculum

449
00:46:03,927 --> 00:46:06,996
was formed for the first time ever in Tonj.

450
00:46:10,834 --> 00:46:14,504
He even found uniforms
for the children from Korea.

451
00:46:21,645 --> 00:46:26,415
Whenever he wasn't seeing patients,
he taught high school math himself.

452
00:46:28,852 --> 00:46:34,023
He brought in licensed
teachers from Kenya.

453
00:46:34,958 --> 00:46:38,427
The children have returned to school.

454
00:46:46,570 --> 00:46:52,341
At other schools, the students go
to school in the morning

455
00:46:52,376 --> 00:46:57,847
and have class only if the teacher
shows up, and end around noon.

456
00:46:57,881 --> 00:47:01,184
But, we have class all the time,
and teachers present at all times.

457
00:47:01,218 --> 00:47:05,788
School ends at 2:30,
and 3: 10 for high school.

458
00:47:05,823 --> 00:47:09,292
Many students want to attend our school.

459
00:47:13,063 --> 00:47:15,798
He devoted a lot of energy to the school
Tonj Don Bosco Elementary.Middle.High School
(12 year curriculum)

460
00:47:15,799 --> 00:47:18,134
because he believed that helping
the people to become self-sufficient
Tonj Don Bosco Elementary.Middle.High School
(12 year curriculum)

461
00:47:18,135 --> 00:47:20,837
because he believed that helping
the people to become self-sufficient

462
00:47:20,838 --> 00:47:23,606
was more important than
simply feeding them.

463
00:47:28,846 --> 00:47:32,448
His efforts paid off, as we witnessed
a strong passion for learning.

464
00:47:32,449 --> 00:47:34,016
His efforts paid off, as we witnessed
a strong passion for learning.
12th grade class

465
00:47:34,017 --> 00:47:35,117
12th grade class

466
00:47:36,353 --> 00:47:41,224
The priest tried his best to
create more classrooms,

467
00:47:41,258 --> 00:47:43,826
but passed away
without fulfilling his goal.

468
00:47:54,271 --> 00:47:56,839
On a pitch dark night,

469
00:47:58,075 --> 00:48:01,277
we saw students studying
with only a flashlight.

470
00:48:06,817 --> 00:48:09,285
28 years old this year,

471
00:48:09,319 --> 00:48:15,191
Ajing is the oldest student at Don Bosco.
He is studying while working at the school.

472
00:48:15,926 --> 00:48:22,131
Ajing was recruited as a child soldier when he was
12 and taken to war on behalf of his uncle.

473
00:48:22,132 --> 00:48:22,732
Life was difficult because a young person

474
00:48:22,733 --> 00:48:25,868
Life was difficult because a young person
Ajing / Former Child Soldier

475
00:48:25,869 --> 00:48:28,537
needs food, but there was
no food, only water.

476
00:48:28,538 --> 00:48:36,045
Sometimes we were forced to do heavy work.
If we refused, we were beaten

477
00:48:36,046 --> 00:48:39,949
or forced to stand under
the sun for some hours.

478
00:48:39,950 --> 00:48:46,022
So I was praying to God
to take away this life.

479
00:48:48,458 --> 00:48:52,161
He escaped after 6 years
with help from the UNICEF,

480
00:48:52,162 --> 00:48:54,864
and came to Father Lee Tae-seok.

481
00:48:54,865 --> 00:49:00,002
He embraced this boy trembling
in fear with a special love.

482
00:49:00,003 --> 00:49:03,272
It was the first time he
felt a father's love.

483
00:49:03,407 --> 00:49:07,777
And so he advised me to study,

484
00:49:07,811 --> 00:49:09,879
to work for the future.

485
00:49:09,913 --> 00:49:11,380
If I didn't study, he would call me,

486
00:49:11,415 --> 00:49:15,484
advise me to sit and study.

487
00:49:18,322 --> 00:49:23,092
Energy needs to be conserved because of
the limited capacity of the solar collector,

488
00:49:23,126 --> 00:49:25,895
but there is one place that
is always lit at night.

489
00:49:26,530 --> 00:49:28,197
It was Father Lee Tae-seok's desire.

490
00:49:29,800 --> 00:49:30,333
Dormitory

491
00:49:30,334 --> 00:49:34,003
This is the dormitory built for students who want to
study, but whose homes are too far away.
Dormitory

492
00:49:34,004 --> 00:49:35,538
This is the dormitory built for students who want to
study, but whose homes are too far away.

493
00:49:35,539 --> 00:49:40,643
The priest believed that a school should be
a place where children ravaged by war

494
00:49:40,644 --> 00:49:43,412
can dream of a better future.

495
00:49:43,947 --> 00:49:47,817
Although he's gone, his belief
has continued to live on.

496
00:49:48,852 --> 00:49:49,518
Everyday, there is suffering,
and he came here to save us.

497
00:49:49,519 --> 00:49:55,591
Everyday, there is suffering,
and he came here to save us.
Santino Interview / 12th grade

498
00:49:55,592 --> 00:49:56,058
So I have to do the same.
Santino Interview / 12th grade

499
00:49:56,059 --> 00:50:00,296
So I have to do the same.

500
00:50:00,397 --> 00:50:04,233
I have to stay with my people and
give them as much as possible

501
00:50:04,267 --> 00:50:12,441
even if there are no possibilities in Sudan. I have
to try by all means to study and be like him.

502
00:50:20,283 --> 00:50:23,953
One of the students takes out
something for us to see.

503
00:50:25,288 --> 00:50:26,856
It's a student ID.

504
00:50:30,594 --> 00:50:35,865
It was the priest's last gift to the children
before leaving Tonj.

505
00:50:38,902 --> 00:50:42,371
It was the last time Father Lee
has given us this one,

506
00:50:42,406 --> 00:50:45,274
and he went back to Korea and
hasn't come back until now.

507
00:50:46,109 --> 00:50:49,178
I remember Father Lee when I see this one.

508
00:50:57,921 --> 00:51:01,924
Longing becomes pain if you
love someone so deeply.

509
00:51:24,881 --> 00:51:29,852
Tonj wakes up to the rallying of
the South Sudanese military forces.

510
00:51:39,896 --> 00:51:42,465
But, within the walls of Don Bosco,

511
00:51:42,499 --> 00:51:45,868
a completely different kind of day
begins for some students.

512
00:51:47,404 --> 00:51:51,574
Music is another gift the priest
gave to the children.

513
00:52:04,955 --> 00:52:09,325
He unleashed his musical
talent onto the children.

514
00:52:18,168 --> 00:52:21,937
He wished that music would
protect the children of Tonj

515
00:52:21,972 --> 00:52:25,541
just as it had done for him.

516
00:52:41,191 --> 00:52:46,362
With years of warfare, the children
were scarred and heartbroken.

517
00:52:51,101 --> 00:52:54,069
I felt that music could plant the seeds

518
00:52:54,070 --> 00:52:54,670
of joy and hope in the hearts
of these children.

519
00:52:54,671 --> 00:52:58,340
of joy and hope in the hearts
of these children.
From Lee Tae-seok's (Will You Be My Friend)

520
00:53:00,911 --> 00:53:05,381
January 2005 Peace treaty
between North and South Sudan signed

521
00:53:07,250 --> 00:53:11,220
As the signs of peace that he
so longed for begin to surface,

522
00:53:11,254 --> 00:53:14,123
he begins a surprising new venture.

523
00:53:14,157 --> 00:53:18,627
He formed South Sudan's first-ever
35-person brass band.

524
00:53:33,577 --> 00:53:37,846
It was an unimaginable feat
in this wartorn place.

525
00:53:55,498 --> 00:54:01,303
He read manuals and practiced hard
in order to teach the children.

526
00:54:17,454 --> 00:54:21,924
And he chose to give up some of his
sleeping time to make sheet music.

527
00:54:49,886 --> 00:54:53,155
With a natural sense of rhythm,

528
00:54:53,189 --> 00:54:56,558
the children absorbed
the priest's teachings.

529
00:55:04,034 --> 00:55:07,803
He even found uniforms for them
with the help of friends in Korea.

530
00:55:09,939 --> 00:55:14,810
The children were amazed by the shiny
clothing they've never seen before.

531
00:55:38,968 --> 00:55:42,438
The appearance of children with
"instruments" instead of "guns"

532
00:55:42,472 --> 00:55:45,441
had a great impact in southern Sudan.

533
00:55:54,584 --> 00:55:58,554
They were called in
for every large event.

534
00:56:06,529 --> 00:56:09,398
They were even invited to
government events.

535
00:56:09,432 --> 00:56:13,602
Father Lee and his brass band quickly
became an instant sensation.

536
00:56:16,806 --> 00:56:17,239
It was never told of or heard of
in South Sudan.

537
00:56:17,240 --> 00:56:19,842
It was never told of or heard of
in South Sudan.
Father Saijen

538
00:56:19,843 --> 00:56:24,646
So the people themselves and
the students-those who started this one-
Father Saijen

539
00:56:24,647 --> 00:56:25,047
they were surprised when they
started really playing together.
Father Saijen

540
00:56:25,048 --> 00:56:29,351
they were surprised when they
started really playing together.

541
00:56:29,552 --> 00:56:33,822
They were surprised and the government
officials were very happy.

542
00:56:33,857 --> 00:56:38,927
Even the president of South Sudan,
when he heard the reception

543
00:56:38,962 --> 00:56:44,833
when the Don Bosco band was playing,
he was extremely happy.

544
00:56:47,971 --> 00:56:51,540
The children were very
proud of themselves.

545
00:56:54,677 --> 00:56:56,845
They said that they wanted to melt

546
00:56:56,880 --> 00:57:00,182
the guns and knives of adults and
turn them into clarinets and trumpets.

547
00:57:05,422 --> 00:57:10,492
In Sudan, it is very difficult
to find such things here.

548
00:57:10,527 --> 00:57:15,197
We are here learning music,
and we are thankful to Father Jolly.

549
00:57:15,832 --> 00:57:20,402
Because he has taught us,

550
00:57:20,437 --> 00:57:24,506
we can now express our love
for you. Thank you.

551
00:58:10,820 --> 00:58:14,289
One person's dedication
brought forth a miracle.

552
00:59:22,525 --> 00:59:27,796
I'm thankful for the material blessings,

553
00:59:27,830 --> 00:59:30,999
and I'm extremely thankful
that these children can live

554
00:59:31,034 --> 00:59:35,804
more properly and with a brighter
outlook thanks to your help.

555
00:59:35,838 --> 00:59:40,609
And I've seen much more
inner growth in them,

556
00:59:40,643 --> 00:59:43,812
and I want to thank you
so much for that.

557
00:59:50,653 --> 00:59:55,824
At the end of the hallway is
the priest's favorite room.

558
01:00:07,370 --> 01:00:11,239
This is where he played
music with the students.

559
01:00:24,988 --> 01:00:27,255
Ever since he left Tonj,

560
01:00:27,290 --> 01:00:30,859
there hasn't been anyone to
teach music to the band members.

561
01:00:30,893 --> 01:00:33,662
And support has been cut off as well.

562
01:00:47,910 --> 01:00:51,179
The students try on their uniforms
for the first time in a long time.

563
01:01:12,869 --> 01:01:17,439
James, the oldest member of the band,
has taken Father Lee's place.

564
01:01:21,377 --> 01:01:28,050
Even with their uniforms, they looked
like children without a father.

565
01:01:33,890 --> 01:01:38,860
The children still cannot
accept Father Lee's death.

566
01:01:40,897 --> 01:01:41,263
After the band heard about Father Lee that he
passed away, they couldn't believe it.

567
01:01:41,264 --> 01:01:47,469
After the band heard about Father Lee that he
passed away, they couldn't believe it.
James / 12th grade, Brass Band Leader

568
01:01:47,470 --> 01:01:55,110
After the band heard about Father Lee that he
passed away, they couldn't believe it.

569
01:01:55,111 --> 01:01:57,579
They thought it was like a dream...

570
01:01:58,514 --> 01:02:01,216
that Father Lee maybe
would come back again.

571
01:02:03,152 --> 01:02:07,222
How much do you miss Father Lee?

572
01:02:08,057 --> 01:02:09,191
I miss him a lot.

573
01:02:09,192 --> 01:02:13,261
I miss him a lot.
Bringe / 5th grade (13)

574
01:02:23,072 --> 01:02:29,244
Bringe, the youngest member of the band
sheds tears as we mention Father Lee.

575
01:02:31,481 --> 01:02:36,251
Bringe first learned to play the trumpet
from Father Lee 5 years ago.

576
01:02:38,387 --> 01:02:41,857
He was eager to learn right away,

577
01:02:42,992 --> 01:02:48,864
but Father Lee told him that he
must first develop a kind heart.

578
01:03:22,265 --> 01:03:26,535
And the boy has not forgotten
this teaching to this day.

579
01:03:30,573 --> 01:03:36,344
Father Jolly always played with us
and told us funny stories.

580
01:03:37,180 --> 01:03:39,447
Whenever I did something wrong,
he didn't hit me like others did,

581
01:03:39,482 --> 01:03:41,049
but showed me how I
could fix the problem.

582
01:03:50,893 --> 01:03:56,565
Father Lee made this boy feel like
someone was watching out for him

583
01:03:56,599 --> 01:03:59,868
with love and care for
the first time in his life.

584
01:04:01,404 --> 01:04:03,772
Tonj Don Bosco Primary School

585
01:04:06,242 --> 01:04:09,611
Bringe stops by school
on the way home.

586
01:04:13,850 --> 01:04:17,819
Bringe has yet to register for
the upcoming school year.

587
01:04:18,855 --> 01:04:23,325
In the past, there was a person
who secretly funded his tuition,

588
01:04:23,359 --> 01:04:27,329
but Bringe knows that
he's not there anymore.

589
01:04:33,870 --> 01:04:37,639
As soon as he comes home,
Bringe climbs up a tree.

590
01:04:43,579 --> 01:04:47,249
He's after the half-ripe mangoes.

591
01:04:49,685 --> 01:04:53,054
He skillfully brings down his target.

592
01:04:57,393 --> 01:05:01,796
This mango is this
13 year old boy's meal.

593
01:05:10,940 --> 01:05:14,109
When did you eat?

594
01:05:17,146 --> 01:05:18,914
I haven't had anything
since last night.

595
01:05:24,854 --> 01:05:29,624
There are 11 people in his family.
His father is unemployed

596
01:05:29,659 --> 01:05:33,428
and his mother has no breast
milk due to malnutrition.

597
01:05:33,462 --> 01:05:35,530
This is reality for the children of Tonj.

598
01:05:41,871 --> 01:05:44,439
We asked Bringe to look at the camera

599
01:05:44,473 --> 01:05:47,943
and say his final goodbye
to Father Jolly.

600
01:05:47,977 --> 01:05:50,345
Look at the camera and say your
final goodbye to Father Jolly

601
01:06:02,925 --> 01:06:05,193
Goodbyes are never easy.

602
01:06:14,837 --> 01:06:20,508
I always pray for you.

603
01:06:21,844 --> 01:06:33,421
Thank you for helping me
and many people in Tonj.

604
01:06:35,057 --> 01:06:40,328
I will do my best here in the Brass Band
just like you taught me to.

605
01:07:02,918 --> 01:07:05,887
James, who was translating, also cried.

606
01:07:22,038 --> 01:07:27,809
Life without Father Jolly seemed to
be taking a toll on the children.

607
01:07:42,958 --> 01:07:43,391
Here in Africa, and especially in Sudan,
young people don't cry easily.

608
01:07:43,392 --> 01:07:48,263
Here in Africa, and especially in Sudan,
young people don't cry easily.

609
01:07:48,264 --> 01:07:51,466
Here in Africa, and especially in Sudan,
young people don't cry easily.

610
01:07:51,467 --> 01:07:54,069
European kids do,

611
01:07:54,070 --> 01:07:59,541
but here, kids won't shed a tear even if they
are sick, have a stomachache or fever.

612
01:08:00,309 --> 01:08:08,083
I could see how much Father
Lee loved the children,

613
01:08:08,117 --> 01:08:14,289
especially the poor children
from the way they were crying.

614
01:08:14,323 --> 01:08:18,893
I'm sure you could feel that too.

615
01:08:35,845 --> 01:08:40,215
At first, I planned a lot of things because
the economic situation was so bad.

616
01:08:41,350 --> 01:08:47,322
But, as time passed, I realized that spending time
with them was the most important thing.

617
01:08:49,458 --> 01:08:49,924
No matter what happens,
I want to always be there for them.

618
01:08:49,925 --> 01:08:55,230
No matter what happens,
I want to always be there for them.

619

From Lee Tae-seok's (Will You Be My Friend)

620
01:09:00,503 --> 01:09:02,770
Aren't you lonely?

621
01:09:04,406 --> 01:09:09,777
I'm always around children,
so I don't really feel lonely.

622
01:09:09,812 --> 01:09:11,079
And I don't have time to anyway.

623
01:09:15,618 --> 01:09:20,588
Why couldn't he return to the children
he loved so much?

624
01:09:21,524 --> 01:09:25,994
In October 2008,
he takes a trip to Korea,

625
01:09:26,061 --> 01:09:27,128
Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital

626
01:09:27,129 --> 01:09:28,663

Soon Chun Hyang University Hospital

627
01:09:28,664 --> 01:09:31,799
and gets his first-ever medical checkup.

628
01:09:33,936 --> 01:09:36,804
The results were shocking.

629
01:09:40,543 --> 01:09:42,810
All this is cancer tissue.

630
01:09:44,246 --> 01:09:46,114
And these are areas of growth...

631
01:09:52,254 --> 01:09:55,823
The cancer cells have already
spread throughout his body.

632
01:09:55,858 --> 01:09:59,827
This is the left liver, the left hepatic lobe.

633
01:09:59,862 --> 01:10:06,234
We can see 9-10 centimeter tumors
on the left hepatic lobe.

634
01:10:06,268 --> 01:10:11,139
When you told him the final results,
how did the priest react?

635
01:10:11,473 --> 01:10:11,973
He was crushed, not because
his life may be ending, but

636
01:10:11,974 --> 01:10:17,712
He was crushed, not because
his life may be ending, but
Yoo Byung-wook

637
01:10:17,713 --> 01:10:17,979
he was disheartened because he thought this would
prevent him from going back to Sudan in 10 days,
Yoo Byung-wook

638
01:10:17,980 --> 01:10:20,882
he was disheartened because he thought this would
prevent him from going back to Sudan in 10 days,

639
01:10:21,016 --> 01:10:23,952
because he hadn't yet completed digging the well...
because he still had a lot of medication to use up...

640
01:10:23,986 --> 01:10:28,356
and he still had a lot of things he needed to do.
Actually, he was planning to go back.

641
01:10:29,592 --> 01:10:32,360
- To Sudan?
- Yes.

642
01:10:32,394 --> 01:10:36,864
So I had to talk to his family
and tried to stop him.

643
01:10:37,700 --> 01:10:38,266
Hello, my name is Father Lee Tae-seok.

647
01:10:46,275 --> 01:10:55,883
and I want to tell you
how thankful I am

648
01:10:55,918 --> 01:10:59,587
for your dedication and support.

649
01:10:59,622 --> 01:11:06,527
Your support has really helped
the young people of Sudan,

650
01:11:06,562 --> 01:11:09,631
especially the students.

651
01:11:09,665 --> 01:11:13,234
Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce
to you Father Lee Tae-seok.

652
01:11:13,969 --> 01:11:17,338
That day, he stood confidently
on the stage.

653
01:11:17,873 --> 01:11:22,944
It was an event to raise funds for
the expansion of Tonj High School.

654
01:11:22,978 --> 01:11:26,848
He didn't tell anyone about
his terminal cancer diagnosis.

655
01:11:27,883 --> 01:11:31,386
All the other teams rehearsed
except for us.

Despite the extreme pain
plaguing his body,

01:14:09,445 --> 01:14:14,515
he worked hard for the children of

677
01:15:02,831 --> 01:15:07,502
Looking forward to returning to the children,
he fought hard for his life.

678
01:15:11,340 --> 01:15:17,211
He never once showed a negative side
while receiving cancer treatment 16 times.

679
01:15:21,149 --> 01:15:25,820
But he had one thing
that burdened his heart.

680
01:15:26,455 --> 01:15:27,522
It was his mother.

681
01:15:30,659 --> 01:15:34,629
My mother raised 10 children
alone as a seamstress.

682
01:15:36,865 --> 01:15:40,334
She endured much hardship supporting me

through six years of medical school,

684
01:15:45,274 --> 01:15:45,706

had hard feelings towards me.

689
01:15:54,883 --> 01:15:56,951
Whenever our mother would
visit him at the hospital,

690
01:15:56,985 --> 01:16:04,992
he would make sure to clean up all the blood
and fluids before she arrived.

691
01:16:05,027 --> 01:16:12,300
Even though he must have been in a lot of pain,
he would ask to be seated upright,

692
01:16:12,334 --> 01:16:15,002
and would greet our mother
with a bright smile.

693
01:16:15,037 --> 01:16:17,905
So, our mother never knew
how bad his illness was.

694
01:16:21,543 --> 01:16:25,112
He never made it back to Tonj.

695
01:16:25,647 --> 01:16:32,520
On January 14, 2010, Father Lee Tae-seok's
48 years of life came to an end.

He is leaving with a smile,

01:17:44,259 --> 01:17:48,429
but those who are left behind
send him off with tears.

699
01:17:55,470 --> 01:18:00,174
The children of Tonj only heard
of Father Lee's death.

700
01:18:00,208 --> 01:18:03,978
We decided to show them
images of his last days.

701
01:18:09,618 --> 01:18:17,792
We are here in the home today to see
something about the life of Father Lee-

702
01:18:17,826 --> 01:18:24,598
how he got sick and also, how he passed
away, and also about his funeral.

703
01:18:26,334 --> 01:18:28,803
The children quiet down.

704
01:18:31,640 --> 01:18:36,310
The priest set up this DVD player
to show films to the children.

705
01:18:54,062 --> 01:18:57,631
Seeing the priest's face for
the first time in 16 months,

706
01:19:10,011 --> 01:19:13,481
smiles begin to form on
the faces of the children.

707
01:19:24,326 --> 01:19:29,196
Soon after, the image of an extremely
thin Father Jolly appears on the screen.

708
01:19:45,347 --> 01:19:46,614
And,

709
01:19:50,952 --> 01:19:55,322
the Dinka children begin to sob.

710
01:20:45,907 --> 01:20:47,575
The video is over,

711
01:20:50,512 --> 01:20:53,581
but the children sit there in silence.

Crybaby Bringe...

718
01:21:38,793 --> 01:21:43,497
We couldn't ask the children
for any more interviews.

719
01:21:58,847 --> 01:22:04,518
That night, the children
did not go back home.

720
01:22:17,365 --> 01:22:22,836
They wanted to say their final
goodbye to Father Jolly.

721
01:22:35,116 --> 01:22:40,454
I love you

722
01:23:16,558 --> 01:23:30,137
I love you, I really love you

723
01:23:30,171 --> 01:23:43,951
After you left,

724
01:23:43,985 --> 01:23:57,564
I cried so many tears...

725
01:24:11,546 --> 01:24:18,519
I want to ask God why he had to
take such a young and talented man

726
01:24:18,553 --> 01:24:24,625
at such an early age. I'm 70 years old,

727
01:24:24,659 --> 01:24:29,329
and if he had taken me,
I would gladly go.

728
01:24:29,364 --> 01:24:32,933
He could have done so
much more here than me.

729
01:24:34,069 --> 01:24:40,874
It is a mystery why God took him first.

730
01:24:40,875 --> 01:24:41,909
And I would say, of all the people, he chose
to be among the poorest-poorest

731
01:24:41,910 --> 01:24:48,248
And I would say, of all the people, he chose
to be among the poorest-poorest
Caesar Mazzolari / Bishop of Rumbek, Sudan

732
01:24:48,249 --> 01:24:57,391
in their material things, but also poor
in education, poor in health,

733
01:24:57,392 --> 01:24:59,293
poor in many other ways.

734
01:24:59,294 --> 01:25:03,931
And he had many different
gifts to use to help them.

735
01:25:03,932 --> 01:25:07,401
So we thank God that
he gave him to us.

736
01:25:09,938 --> 01:25:12,005
The last Sunday of February,

737
01:25:14,509 --> 01:25:19,379
villagers gather at the catholic church
where the priest used to preach.
Tonj Salecian Society Catholic Church
February 28, 2010

738
01:25:19,380 --> 01:25:20,514
villagers gather at the catholic church
where the priest used to preach.

739
01:25:21,850 --> 01:25:25,219
The leprosy patients walked
4 hours to get here.

740
01:25:30,358 --> 01:25:33,527
They were waiting for someone.

741
01:25:37,465 --> 01:25:38,832
At the same hour,

742
01:25:56,484 --> 01:26:00,187
the Brass Band begin their march
in front of the hospital.

743
01:26:06,828 --> 01:26:10,497
The priest's portrait is at
the head of the line.

744
01:26:31,352 --> 01:26:38,125
The man in the portrait walks alongside the children
on the road they used to walk together.

745
01:26:42,063 --> 01:26:46,333
One boy gives the priest a thumbs-up.

746
01:26:48,570 --> 01:26:51,838
A multitude of people follow the march.

747
01:27:00,014 --> 01:27:02,783
The Brass Band heads
towards the military camp.

748
01:27:03,618 --> 01:27:09,189
Events where people congregate have been banned
due to a gunfight that occurred a week prior,

749
01:27:09,824 --> 01:27:13,193
but the soldiers don't interrupt the march.

750
01:27:16,531 --> 01:27:21,902
It's because they too, have been treated
for gunshot wounds by the priest.

751
01:27:35,850 --> 01:27:39,319
It's now time to say their final goodbye...

752
01:28:01,309 --> 01:28:04,778
They said that they will remember this man

753
01:28:04,812 --> 01:28:08,482
who came to them and brightened
up their life for a long time.

754
01:28:11,319 --> 01:28:16,790
With that, he returned to Tonj,
that he so longed for.

755
01:28:20,728 --> 01:28:24,498
I often get asked why I went to Africa

756
01:28:24,666 --> 01:28:27,200
when there are plenty of
poor people in Korea

757
01:28:27,235 --> 01:28:30,304
and why I became a priest when I
could help people with my medical skills.

758
01:28:31,839 --> 01:28:33,807
I'm not sure.

759
01:28:34,942 --> 01:28:39,012
But, there is a beautiful scent that
has had an impact on my life.

760
01:28:40,548 --> 01:28:45,819
Jesus said, "Whatever you did for one of the least
of these brothers of mine, you did for me."

761
01:28:47,255 --> 01:28:51,825
Dr. Schweitzer, who gave up everything
and sacrificed his entire life to Africa,

762
01:28:53,561 --> 01:28:57,831
The dedication of the priest and nuns
I have seen at the orphanage as a child,

763
01:28:59,167 --> 01:29:04,171
And finally, my mother's honorable life
that she sacrificed for her children...

764
01:29:05,206 --> 01:29:09,776
These are the scents of beauty
that have moved my heart.

765
01:29:14,482 --> 01:29:17,984
We dedicate this film
to the memory of Father Lee Tae-seok.

767
01:31:10,765 --> 01:31:15,902
Father Lee Tae-seok was the missionary
who belonged to the Salesio Order.
