유물X현대인 : 시대가 지나도 변하지 않는 삶의 이야기 | Myounghee Jeong | TEDxSNU
박물관 유리 속의 유물이란 단순히 과거의 산물이자 역사의 상징으로 느껴지곤 합니다. 과거인 또한 현재를 살아가는 나와는 상관 없는 사람으로 느껴집니다. 그러나 그런 그의 삶에서 나의 삶과 너무나 닮은 모습을 발견했을 때, 과거인은 내게 반갑고 유의미한 누군가가 됩니다. 나아가 우리 땅 대한민국을 거쳐간 수많은 사람들의 삶에 애틋함을 느끼고 공감하게 되기도 합니다.
여기, 유물에 담긴 이러한 영원한 삶의 맥락을 전달하는 분이 있습니다. 바로 박물관 큐레이터 정명희 님입니다. 정명희 님의 이야기를 통해 만든 이도 명확한 기록도 남지 않은 유물로부터 여러 이야기를 발견해내는 과정에 대해 알아봅시다. 또, 그 사이에서 하나의 맥락을 찾아내어 전시 했던 경험에 대해 들어봅시다. 그 맥락이 단순히 시대와 시대를 결합시키는 것을 넘어서, 과거인과 동시대인 그리고 전시를 함께 감상하는 현대인과 현대인 간의 소중한 연대를 만들어냄을 이해할 수 있을 것입니다.

- 7:41Step forward - Technology for good | Yixuan ZHU | TEDxPennon Qingdao YouthIn 2025, ten million people still die simply because they can’t reach a doctor in time. That reality haunts me, so tonight I step forward to share how ordinary phones, 3-D printers and online study are already healing our shared home. I believe technology’s greatest power is not in profit but in empathy: printing limbs, connecting learners, saving lives. If we choose to use it for good, each of us can turn a pocket-sized device into a life-saving tool. Let’s prove that progress isn’t measured in code, but in the lives we illuminate together. I am Eric and I'm 12. I love football and video games. I enjoy science class and hanging out with friends. I'm friendly and like trying new things.

- 3:19My World of Cakes and Smiles | Xi Hu | TEDxPennon Qingdao YouthI am a girl who turns flour, eggs and giggles into edible sunshine. In my tiny kitchen, every whisk-stroke is an experiment and every cake that rises carries a surprise flavour and a mission: to light up faces. From dreaming up galaxy-swirl birthday towers to watching my neighbours’ eyes sparkle at the first bite, I’ve learned that a slice of sweetness can travel faster than any smile. 2024:HU Xi, a student from Qingdao Laoshan District No. 2 Experimental Primary School This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

- 3:39Overcoming Fear and Failure | Zixiao HUANG | TEDxPennon Qingdao YouthA 99 once made me feel invincible, but when the next paper came back 96, fear pounced like a shadow. So I built a notebook of every stumble, turning red ink into rocket fuel. Edison taught me that each “wrong” answer is just one filament closer to light. Today I roar: failure isn’t a verdict; it’s a map. Open your mistake notebook, keep moving, and watch fear become the loudest cheerleader you’ve ever had. My name is Leo, I am7 years old.I like reading English picture books, and I am fond of Go and martial arts. I want to be a scientist, and my favorite is the great inventor Edison.

- 3:36Step forward - Be brave to do anything | Jianing DU | TEDxPennon Qingdao YouthDrawing from her own kitchen flops and the image of a toddler’s first wobbly steps, she argues that courage isn’t the absence of fear but the decision to move while still afraid. Every shuffle, stumble, or stride—no matter how small—builds the strength that perfect stillness never can. If you’re standing at the edge of your own next step, Jessica’s story will nudge you to take it. My name is Jessica,a sunny girl. I enjoy reading adventure English novels and drawing comics! I hope to become good friends with everyone! This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.

- 2:39Step forward - Sustainable Development | Xinyi YU | TEDxPennon Qingdao YouthLast picnic day, after weaving flower crowns, I ask myself"What if we run out of trees and braches?" That question bloomed into my mission. Today I’ll show how planting willow trees, reusing bottles, and tiny daily choices grow into Sustainable Development—big words that just mean loving our planet like a best friend. Let’s help flowers bloom and willows grow together! I am Yu Xinyi, a positive and cheerful girl. I come from Shangqing Road Primary School in Qingdao.

- 3:28Breaking your limits | Yunxi ZHANG | TEDxPennon Qingdao YouthBallet class scared me more than math tests; my legs froze, my heart drummed louder than any music. One day I decided to face the mirror, fall, laugh, and rise again. Each stumble painted bruises that turned into art. Today I’ll share how I rewrote “I can’t” into “I could,” and why trying, tumbling, and repeating is the bravest dance we’ll ever do. My name is Elsa. I am a 10-year-old girl who loves reading, drawing, and playing the piano. Music brings me a lot of joy, and I enjoy expressing myself through art and melodies.
