"Like the first step of freedom after hatching," Hur Min-sik told The Sookmyung Times about his first flying experience in a balloon that he made himself. That balloon, shaped like a soccer ball, was the beginning of his balloon mania. "I was surprised when I saw a photo showing a balloon made by the Japanese. The Japanese built it even though they had never seen an actual balloon before. After I saw the picture, I acted with confidence about making my own balloon."
However, making a balloon was too hard for him because he couldn't find balloon accessories. But he succeeded in time. He now manages his homepage where he exchanges information about balloons. "I hope to organize a balloon club at Sookmyung Women's University, so students and I can fly together". Hur Min-sik remarked.
