The characters in our story are mainly Yoko, Ko, mother
and Hideyo. However Yoko, Ko, and Mother were all together
and traveled together during the war. They went throught
many conflicts and tried to cover themselves from being
Japanese. Hideyo was off alone because he wasn't able to
move with the family. HE was one week behind and it
doesn't really talk a lot about him. I wanted to know more
of what happens to him but it was usually about Yoko/ko/
mother's point of view. Yoko changes when she saw how Ko
acted and that they were having a hard time. She began to
understand somethings that she didn't know and acted a
little bit more compassionate than before. mother was i
mpressed at Ko's act of compassion and wanted Yoko to be
like her too. There was a great change when her mother
died and Yoko, and Ko were sad. This was until chapter 8
and i wonder what happeend to Hideyo

So you read a book about Japanese. I read a book about Korea, being tortured by Japanese, probably one of the main characters in your novel would have treated Tae-yul or Sun-hee badly, who knows? Anyway the story sounds good.
heyy brianny ㅋㅋㅋ
interesting post !!
I would really like to read your book someday!It sounds interesting on how it's a point of view that the Japanese had, not the Koreans. I think it's very important to know both point of views. Anyways, I think your character Yoko, is simliar to my character, Kien. In my book, Kien also experiences hardships by the war, so he grows to be mature and becomes compassionate. Also, in my story, a character dies and it affects the other characters as well. Thay Van Chai, a character in my book, dies like Yoko's mother and it affects the other characters too. I think characters in a story change and develop through the environment and the events that occur.
nice post~~~
your book sounds interesting~~ I think that your book shows that not only Korean people suffered in Korea during the Korean War. And since we already know about how most Korean's points of view 'So Far from the Bamboo Grove' give a new point of view. Some of your characters are like the characters in Red Scarf Girl.
Hey Brian!
This is Carol speaking!
Well, wasn't this a great book!
I think you described the characters really well.
Well, when I first got this book I thought that it would be boring, but it was interesting book!
We have great discussion group too!!

Nice Blog!
Nice description about the characters. It looks like you named all the characters and gave a description of them and you gave us what they are like and how they are. I think you did very well in explaining and describing the characters of your book. You also wrote how the characters change in the book and you also wrote the conflicts they had. You did a very descriptive post about the characters and I also agree about the characters. I am reading the same book so I understand the characters also and I can see that you also understand them.
