I've known the teacher for nearly 15 years, and I've been working as her manager for about a year. My main job is a broadcast writer.

Speaking about their connection, the manager explained that his relationship with Sun Woo-yong-nyeo spans nearly 15 years. He officially took on the role of her manager about a year ago, though his primary profession is as a broadcast writer. Their initial meeting occurred around 2012 when they worked together at Buddhist TV.

I first met the teacher at Buddhist TV in 2012, and since then, we've spent a lot of time together.

Sun Woo-yong-nyeo, who has had a career spanning approximately 60 years, had notably worked without a manager until recently. Her manager expressed concern over this, noting that her family resides in the United States and that her long career without representation had led to difficulties in managing her health and occasionally signing unfavorable contracts. He stated that seeing her in such situations made him feel regretful and upset.

The teacher's family lives in the U.S., and she worked for 60 years without a manager. Because of this, it was difficult for her to take care of her health, and there were times she signed unfavorable contracts. Seeing that made me feel regretful and upset.

The transition to management began organically as they collaborated on YouTube content. As the channel gained popularity and her schedule became more demanding, Sun Woo-yong-nyeo herself proposed that he become her full-time manager. This shared venture has allowed him to actively support and safeguard her career and well-being.

Please be my manager.
