Description

Lee Geum-hyung has monopolized the title of "first woman" in police history, rising from the first female Commissioner General to the rank of Senior Commissioner General. Having entered the police force as part of the second open recruitment class for female officers, she overcame the three major disadvantages of the organization—being a high school graduate, a police constable, and a woman—through her characteristic positivity, diligence, and a challenging spirit that "nothing is impossible," pioneering a new path. *A Studying Mom's Time Runs Backwards* is the success story of the author, detailing the numerous obstacles she faced and how she overcame them to gain recognition for her competence within the conservative and authoritarian police organization as a woman. Her story of overcoming prejudice against women through her mastery of her work and stably leading the organization with her unique "mom leadership" will serve as a fresh inspiration to working mothers.

"Before I was a police officer, I was a mother." The legend of a female police officer who rose to the second-in-command, Senior Superintendent General, in the male-dominated police force! The life lessons of a police mom who raised three daughters to be geniuses. "I am a working mom. I have a third-grade boy and a sixth-grade daughter. I work, I fulfill my role as a mom, and I read books... I always feel like I don't have enough time..." Then, an amazing mom appeared and told me to study.
