There's no need to bother the Koreans.
It's an ancient (more than two millennia ago) latin proverb:
"Dimidium facti, qui coepit, habet" [who starts is at half of the job]
In Italian is practically the same.


EDIT:
actually, a word has been added in the Italian version: "ben" that would translate into "good".
So you need a start, but a good start.
Meynaf is sure a good start

EDIT2:
à bien y penser, en français c'est pareil!: "ben"=="bien"
