My ideas about essay

     I plan to write about how Koreans think about Japanese and what Japanese should do in the future.

     The reason I got interested in this is because I read one novel -- "Hoshiboshino fune" written by Yuka Murayama. The grand father who is one of the characters was related to Korean. The story about him was very impressive for me. I do not explain the detail about it, but the impressive thing is like this.

     In the world war two, Japan invaded Korea and treat Korean cruelly, for example the prostitutes for soldiers. Even today, this invasion has a bad influence on the relation between Korea and Japanese. The problem about Yasukuni shrine is one of the influence.

     On the other hand, recently the Korean idols are in fashion. Most Japanese listen their music in Japanese,
and some of them admire Korean idols. It seems to become considerably friendly at least out of strict diplomacy.

      However, is it true? Don't any Korean feel bitter about Japanese? Have Japanese succeeded in becoming friendly?

      I'm afraid that some Koreans still continue feeling bitter, and then the serious problem will occur in the future. In order to prevent such thing, Japanese should know Korean real intentions.

      The questions I have about this issue are...
1) the history about W.W.2
2) the situation about the Korean boom in Japan
3) how the young Korean people think about Japan?
4) how the young Korean people are taught about Japan at schools?
5) how the middle-aged generation Korean think about Japan?
6) how the old Korean people think about Japan?
7) the Korean government's attitude to Japan
8) the Koreans' attitudes to Japanese companies
9) what is the recent problems Japanese have
10) what should Japanese do
 and so on.

      The sources I have found regarding this issue are...
1) The memory of exchange between Korea and Japan (2006.11) / by Lii Shukyo
2) Admiral Yi Sun-shin and his turtleboat armada : a comprehensive account of the resistance of Korea to the 16th century Japanese invasion (1973) / by Park Yune-hee
3) Between discord and cooperation : Japan adn the two Koreas (2007) / Byung Chul Koh
4) The case of Korea;: a collection of evidence on the Japanese domination of Korea and on the development of the Korean independencemovement (1921) / Chung, Henry
  and so on...
