What the grandson of an independence fighter heard during an interview at the Korea Military Academy

(1)After I passed the first written test, I went to the Yooksa and dictated
(2)I had to take the test. The document I needed at this time was a letter of recommendation The recommendation of government officials or military generals above the level of director-general was needed I received a letter of recommendation from Admiral Min Young-gu and General Kim Kwan-oh, my father’s comrade and a former member of the Liberation Army
(3)The interviewers were General Lee Yong, the cadet leader, and the chief of staff All of them were Japanese volunteers Maybe that’s why it was quite intimidating
(4)”How do you know Admiral Min Young-gu and General Kim Kwan-oh?” the chief of staff asked me
(5)”They are people who have had a relationship with my family since they lived in China,” he replied in a timid voice

(1)Then, your family is also known to be independent of the so-called independence movement
(2)That’s what I mean.” That was a very scornful retort “Yes, I am.” I answered as if I were guilty There was a lot of anger inside These people seemed quite hostile to the independence activists
(3)On my way home from the interview, I wondered whether I should say this to my parents or to engrave it on my own How disappointed would my parents be if they found out that I was insulted? I couldn’t stand this contradiction that those who joined the Japanese army during Japanese colonial era and sang “Long Live the Emperor” gained power and became generals
(4)The day before I went to Seoul National University for the exam, I received a letter of acceptance from the land office I have a new concern When I go to Yooksa, I don’t have to worry about my tuition and my living expenses at home. My mother suffered so much and my father lost his hearing because he was tortured by a Japanese manGood. After making such a decision to become a soldier, I couldn’t forget the insult I suffered on the day of the entrance exam In the end, when you go to the army, the generals who devoted themselves to the Japanese will live in a world… I couldn’t get rid of that thought

(1)I’ve written my thoughts to my father. He’s
(2)He thought about it for a while and said
(3)Can’t you think that we don’t go to the army because we don’t have money, but we go according to the spirit of the establishment of the Shinheung Military Academy? As you know, our country has become too vulnerable to civil affairs, so we have been invaded by other countries Isn’t national power the power of the country? Earlier, grandfather thought that the old values of civil service superiority were wrong and decided to cultivate military officers Now I want you to make up your mind.”
(4)I told the truth about my work during the six-and-four oral examination My father was furious for a moment and soon regained his composure and said
(5)”I know the injustice you’ve received, we’ve already lived in such a wrong world for 10 years, but we have to overcome it right away if we avoid the path because of it.”Although it was liberated from the Japanese colonial rule, true independence from the remnants of the Japanese colonial rule has not yet ended…”
(6)I gave up my examination at Seoul National University and entered the Military Academy
(7)I decided to study

(1)Soon after, his father told Admiral Min Young-koo about this
(2)”I mean, the land investigation should be corrected from the national period, but it makes sense that you insulted the independence movement. What country’s military is this?”
(3)Admiral Min immediately complained to General Lee Jong-chan, who is president of Jinhae Army University. General Lee Jong-chan also immediately contacted the Military Academy and said he was quite reproachful, but I have not forgotten the insult I have experienced so far because it is not an insult to me
