The Korean Post has issued on 13 May a set of two stamps on the theme of "Family". The stamps feature the works of Jieun Shin (Korea) and Trisha Co Reyes (Philippines) that were awarded the grand prize and award of excellence, respectively, in the 16th International Postage Stamp Design Contest held in 2010. Theses new stamps serves as a reminder of the true meaning and preciousness of the family.

The happiness that a child confers to his parents can be as vigorous as a spirited cheer, as Pestalozzi cited the joy derived by a parent from watching their child as one of the many joys of life. On the other hand, the children see their parents as a reliable source of protection. A family provides not only a tranquil place to take a rest when we are tired and worn out, but also the string of hope on which we can pull to rise up again even at moments of failure or despair.

Meaning of family cannot be put into a limit of words. It is an experience that one undergoes, all through the lifetime. A family, is cannot be touched, but can be felt in honest contemplations of the mind.
