A Teacher-Student Bond Unbroken by 30 Years... Seonghwan High Alumni Find Their Teacher Lee Byeong-do
Surprise Visit to the Campaign Office by 1997 Seonghwan High Students... Confidence in Him as the Right Person for 'Educational Sovereignty'
May 15, 2026
[Cheonan/CTN] Reporter Kang Hyun-su = On the evening of May 13, two days before Teachers' Day, the campaign office of Chungnam Education Superintendent candidate Lee Byeong-do in Sinbu-dong, Cheonan, was filled with a teacher-student bond warmer than any political slogan. The people who instantly washed away the fatigue of Candidate Lee, who was handling a relentless election schedule, were none other than the students he first taught in Chungnam about 30 years ago.
As soon as Candidate Lee spotted the students waiting for him in the lobby, he greeted them with his characteristic friendly manner, saying, "Oh, welcome! So glad to see you." The bond formed in 1997 between a homeroom teacher and students of Class 1, Grade 11 at Seonghwan High School closed the gap of long years as they embraced each other. The students touched hearts at the scene by delivering a basket of carnations and a handwritten letter stating, "Thanks to Teacher Lee Byeong-do's love and devotion, we were able to learn a lot and grow properly."
Oh Hyeong-jun, who wrote the letter on behalf of the group, expressed deep trust in his mentor who served as a life guide, saying, "I still remember the heart and love you felt for us." In response, Candidate Lee replied with a bright smile, joking, "It was worth running for office, just to see students I haven't seen in so long." The memory of Seonghwan High School, his first assignment after moving from Incheon to Chungnam, held special meaning for Lee as well. Anecdotes of the Chinese characters teacher who enjoyed wearing modernized Hanbok and the innocent students bloomed into vivid conversations even after 30 years.
Time has passed, and the students have now become parents, while the teacher stands as a candidate for superintendent, designing the future of their children. The students' support went beyond personal connection and led to confidence in Candidate Lee as an education expert. Baek Gwan-hyeon expressed pride, saying, "Watching the debate video, I felt so proud to be your student," and Kang Byeong-pyo, who is active as a school steering committee chair, showed unchanging affection, saying, "It just feels good to visit you since it's almost Teachers' Day."
The 30-minute chat was not a relationship between a candidate and voters, but a time for a teacher and students returned to the classroom of 1997. The students unanimously voiced their confidence in Lee's election, wishing, "We hope our children receive greater benefits with you as the superintendent."
The trust between a teacher and student is the essence of education and the most powerful driver of innovation. This meeting, where the seeds of education sown 30 years ago returned as support from students who have become upright members of society, proves that the era of educational sovereignty pursued by Lee Byeong-do ultimately begins with sincere relationships between people. The local community is watching to see what waves of change the leadership of a "true teacher" guaranteed by his students will bring to the Chungnam educational field.
