public class Main {
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    JFrame parentFrame = new JFrame();
    parentFrame.setSize(500, 150);

    jl.setText("Count : 0");

    parentFrame.add(BorderLayout.CENTER, jl);
    parentFrame.setDefaultCloseOperation(JFrame.EXIT_ON_CLOSE);

    parentFrame.setVisible(true);
