(1)What I felt while traveling in Korea
(2)I traveled to 727~30 Korea, where the relationship between Japan and Japan is deteriorating
(3)The main purpose of the trip was to watch the world swimming competition in Gwangju, so I visited Jeolla-do such as Jeonju and Gunsan
(4)My friend worried that it would be okay to travel to Korea in this situation, but personally, I was a little worried about traveling to Korea in this situation
(5)I decided to be careful of my behavior and went on a trip to Korea
(6)On the first day of the trip, protests against the Japanese government took place in various parts of Korea on the 27th, and banners of boycott of Japanese products were hung in Gwangju and Jeonju, where I visited
(7)However, the difference from Korea is that I was able to travel peacefully after that without anything
(8)There was no danger of personal safety, and no one looked displeased because they were Japanese
(9)What I met there were ordinary Koreans who were a little nosy and friendly but warm
(10)There are two memories that remain in my mind especially during the tripThe first was when Seto Daiya won a gold medal while watching the World Swimming Championships in Gwangju
(11)A Korean man sitting next to me entered something into the translation application of his smartphone and showed it to me with a smile
(12)The translated Japanese was written like this
(13)”Congratulations! We won two times
(14)I lost my words by accident I never thought I’d hear such a kind word from the very Korean person who came to Korea in this harsh relationship between Korea and Japan
(15)Thank you. In Korean, I answered and shook hands with him. I was surprised and happy, so I inadvertently cried in my eyes
(16)Another memorable thing was when Seto Daiya had an interview in the venue
(17)When Seto replied “Thank you” in Korean, cheers erupted from the Korean audience
(18)It was also surprising to me, who was worried that a Japanese player might win a gold medal and make jeers
(19)And then I thought I will also be swayed by information on TV or the Internet
(20)I thought there might be only one person
(21)Looking back, it was the same when I first visited Korea
(22)The image of Korea that you know through TV or the Internet, and the actual visit
(23)There was a huge difference in the image afterwards
(24)This time, too
(25)I was embarrassed by these two incidents
(26)To suspect a Korean
(27)Not just that.
(28)When you buy cup ramen at a convenience store in Gwangju, you don’t know how to make it
(29)A saleswoman worked hard to make ramen for me
(30)A taxi from Gochang Dolmen, designated as a World Heritage Site
(31)If you can’t find it, the woman in the museum calls a taxi
(32)I gave it to him and showed him to the platform
(33)There are always friendly people in Korea who don’t change
(34)After I came back to Japan, in this situation
(35)I think it was really nice to travel
(36)You can’t see Korea on TV or the Internet
(37)I can meet you
(38)Of course, it’s one-sided and short-term visits
(39)I know you shouldn’t generalize to what you felt
(40)But rather than judging by the information on the TV Internet
(41)I think it’s very meaningful and valuable
(42)What you get from traveling is your legs
(43)It’s a living piece of information that you walk through and see with your own eyes
(44)What I want to say here is that now is Korea
(45)Let’s do it! It’s not a story
(46)It’s true that there’s a demonstration going on, and I’m going to
(47)It may be better not to travel in summer
(48)But I think it’s all about the TV and the interfaces
(49)I hope you don’t trust them. I hope you don’t trust them
(50)You can’t say you’ll know the truth when you’re there
(51)Things that are close to the truth are bound to be in the field
(52)It means
(53)At least, rather than overflowing with information on TV or the Internet, Gwangju
(54)”Congratulations! I trust you and give you a hap-talk” with the smile of a Korean
(55)I’m thinking about it
(56)There wasn’t a lie in that sweet smile
