““좀 성급했다. 노령림(老齡林)이란 용어 자체가 어폐가 있다. 우리나라가 민둥산에서 벗어나 녹화에 성공한 것은 1970년대 후반이다. 대부분 40~50년 정도밖에 안 된 나무들이다.””

"[I believe that the forest service has] hastily [made the decision to cut down older trees and reforest these “old-growth forests” without consulting the relevant experts]. As a matter of fact, using the term “old-growth forest” is quite misleading [in this case]. It was only in the late 1970s that Korea completed reforesting most of its previously barren mountains, so most of these older trees are, in reality, barely forty to fifty years old."
