Long 도입 If I were in that situation, I wouldn’t encourage my child to

TALK become an artist.
이유1 First of all, it costs a lot of money and time to get trained
properly. You have to pay for private lessons and spend a
considerable amount of time practicing. Both the child and
the parents would have to give up a lot of other things.
이유2 Furthermore, it’s extremely difficult to become famous as an
artist. Very few people can actually make a living as an artist,
so it is a financially unstable career. I wouldn’t want my child
to have money problems for life.
마무리 So, I think that art is a wonderful hobby, but it’s not practical
as a career.
제가 그 상황이라면, 제 아이가 예술가가 되는 것을 권장하지 않을 겁니다.
우선, 제대로 교육을 받으려면 돈과 시간이 너무 많이 들죠. 개인 레슨 비용을
감당해야 하고, 연습하는 데도 상당한 시간을 보내야 하죠. 아이와 부모 모두
많은 다른 것들을 포기해야 할 겁니다.
게다가, 예술가로 유명해지기란 매우 어렵습니다. 실제로 극소수의 사람만이
예술가로 생계를 유지할 수 있으므로 재정적으로 불안정한 직업이죠. 저는 제
아이가 살아가는 데 있어 돈 문제를 갖지 않았으면 합니다.
따라서 저는 예술은 좋은 취미활동이지만 직업으로서는 현실적이지 않다고
봅니다.
