1. I was shocked to hear that Hideo actually was lucky enough to find the poster about his sisters. I didn't really like the ending because it leaves you hanging. If it wasn't for the notes you wouldn't have known what had happened to their father. Some of the issued left were to give their mother a good and final resting place. She chose to end it there because it was the best thing that had happened to them since they left Korea.
2. Some of the customs I learned about the Japanese was they are burned when they die and that they also call their siblings Honorable. I think they do these customs to show even though they lived in Korea they still studied calligraphy and dancing to show they haven't forgotten their customs. Well I would still celebrate the day of the dead and Christmas.
3. I admire Hideo because he never gave up. He knew his family needed him and he never gave up. I also admire him because he was very smart to hide in the water while they were shooting him. The thing I admire the most is that he still honers the family that saved him.
4. I learned that the communist would even kill their own. Even if they were in the Korean communist society. I also found interesting that Russia didn't declare war until japan was weak.
I mean they were just waiting for the right moment to declare war.
5. I learned that at war every one can be your enemy even your own friend. I also learned that the world is very cruel, and the world is even crueler. Yet, while some of us fight for what we believe is right some try to save the world, I mean aren't we all humans? We all deserve a chance to live our lives without fear of dieing ever single day, we should be able to go outside with out fear of anything or anyone.

OP#4
1. I suspect yoko wants to help the old man beacuse he was the only person that was ever nice to her. What they have in common is that theyh are both teased by the girls and that they're practicly both out casts.
2. It's the turning point for yoko becasue she saw what her sister is doing so they can have a decent life. She starts to have a better atitude.
3. How would you have felt if someone you knew mother or yours died?

op#3
1.I think they feel that their son may not be alive any more. I also think that they know that they're taking up space. They also want to leave because of all the woman that have been raped and dragged into the fields.
2.I don't think that they should have left him behind because what if he shows up?. I also agree with them because things were getting out of hand, with all the drunk men and everything else like having to dig the trash for food.
3. Why do you think Yoko has changed so much, do you notice any major diffrence?

OP#2
1. I think Hideo is cunning and brave. I think this because he was able to trick the solders that he was dead. I think that he's brave because he's traveling alone along a path hoping to meet his family. Hideo is also like a role model to his siblings because he's always trying to protect them from harm and now Ko is doing the same thing.
2. I would take a knife in case i need to cut something or open a can. I would also bring a dagger, for self protection and to cut through weeds or other obstacles. I would also bring some food, like fruit and vegetables. I would bring some photos in case my home is destroyed i wouldn't lose everything. A mirror so i could use this as a distraction to get away from danger or as a last resort a weapon. I would also bring family heirlooms so my family's history wouldn't be lost. Clothes and a blanket. Clothes so i wouldn't have to wear the same clothes everyday. Blankets so that at night i wouldn't be cold. Money in case i need to but food. An emergency kit containing alcohol, bandages etc. I would bring some string so i could make different things like a fishing pole or as a little rope.
3.The most shocking part was the part when hideo found his Korean neighbors dead. I thought this part was shocking because i though, sure i know why they hat Japanese, but to kill their own kind? That's just isn't right. Not that I'm saying killing is right either.
