For 36 years, the Heavenly Japanese Emperor occupied Korea (1910-1945). Koreans including my uncles and my aunts were murdered, raped, and eradicated by the Japanese until America ended the war by dropping two atomic bombs. I want to make sure that people understand that America did not start the World War II, but finished it.

Koreans endured unimaginable brutalities: having their bodies, their lands, and their souls violated by the Japanese for 36 years until America ended the war by dropping two atomic bombs.

This story of brutality is not only applied to Korea, but to China, Philippines, Thailand, Dutch East Indies, Burma and many more, with many million causalities.

All of the above countries suffered post-traumatic stress disorder from wars with the full psychological impact of Post War nation, which can be as destructive as wartime because the people who witnessed killing and slaughtering have been transformed.

This experience was too painful to talk about for many Koreans. Is there any way we can disconnect the cycle of violence and victimhood?
