      to me;{ we appreciate your time and effort today to interview with us. We do plan to move forward with other qualified RNs for this and other positions and will no longer be considering your candidacy, Again, thanks so much.} I instinctively thought about reply and could notice that there was no specific reason describe and no politeness. I am all of time of my life to dedicated in the hospital and currently work in agent for the same position. THEN .I starts to keep thinking of what is this and happen to me, and learned that from Professor Min Jin Lee. Min jin Lee stood up now because the peoples around in this USA in very special people and certain level of peoples are do not know nothing about who Asians are and they do not have knowledges about who Asians are, and sure they must to be learned about what are Asians' cultures where mention that what is a basic IMPORTANT concept for living in community at least it is needed to be known a respect.................................................
      I COULD KEEP THINKING OF THESE AMPTY and no MEANINGFUL SENTENCE...... THEN I WOULD LOVE TO PUT HERE TO BE KNOWN TO EVERYONE. I've been living IN U.S.A. over 30 yrs with been worked inside acute care at medical field 25 yrs where my daily working place is highest stressful fast path area, and I dedicated all of my life. I am proud of to learn about how important of a community services include of specially homeless people, young boys has gun shot, alcoholism diagnosis by many immigrants, and wound care patients. Now I has currently experience is home health care which assigned by daily basis visit clients home. I interviewed exactly same level of position in the same specialized job in this company, then they just reject me. By what is reason for? To be honestly I could say and acknowledged that Because of my accent different from them? It makes them feel [emotional way] uncomfortable or they pick up seems like a broken word from me if it there---all of the way of talk within it was to feel uncomfortable[emotionally] to them? UNCOMFORTABILITY is nothing affect to work. I would love to open this toward to public. Is this a racisms and discriminations from them ,isn't it?. The Pro Lee is right to say that and I am over 100 % comprehensible of the way of her thought. They are seeking the perfect person as like a machinery worker or work like a Robot for their company. Instead of that I am a human being with possessed a powerful knowledges and Heroic, Romantic, and more. Thanks

    강연 보는 내내 눈물이 나네요. 이민와서 각종 오해와 인종차별 받으면서 티내지 않고 열심히 살아가는 아버지들,
    어디에서나 있지만 존재하지 않는것처럼 취급당하는 자신들보다 좀더 나은 환경에서 젊은 세대들 자라길 바랐다며
    그게 책을 쓰는 이유라고
    타국에서 영어도 잘 못하는데 장애를 가진 자식을 키우기 위해 고군분투하는 어머니들
    저 영상 보면서 너무 울었어요. 작가님 한국에 오면 꼭 만나고 싶어요

    Of course most people who read your book are those who can understand English. Only little in percentage Koreans understand English. Pachinko is a good movie and the story itself.

    예전에 하버드에서 speach한 냬용중에서 SKY 얘기는 웃기는 얘기예요. 한국의 모든 학생이 SKY에 매달리고 거기나오면 다 보장된다는 얘기..얼마나 웃기고 왜곡된 얘기인가요. 우리사회도 엄청 다양하고 다른 대학, 그 학생들 엄청 우수한 사람들 않아요. 그런 말도 안되는 얘기 떠들고 다니지 마세요.(그쪽 댓글 중지라 여기에 씀)

      전체적인 메세지를 이해못하고, 단 한가지 때문에 트집 잡습니까? 그게 어떻게 왜곡된 이얘기 입니까? 꼭 항상 국뿡에 가득찬 말만 해야 됩니까? 자신의 조국에 모든 장점과, 단점을 알면서도 이렇게 깊은 애정을 갇고, 우리도 잊고, 무관심한 재일동포를 이얘기를 25년동안 잊지핞고 결국 집필한 이분이 진정한 애국자라고 생각됩니다.

      정정- 25년 아니고 30년!
      정말 이민진 작가님, 이분은 진정한 애국자 이십니다 우리나라를 대표하는 한국인의 상 이런건 없나요 ..
      그리고 SKY 얘기는 BTS노래에도 나오는 거 모르세요 .. SKY를 나와야만이 사람대접 받고 살 수 있다는 .. 그래서 좌절하고 방황하는 우리나라 젊은이들 .. 안타까와요
      저는 미국시민권자 입니다 이민자로 수모고충 다 겪고 살고 있는 부모세대 입니다. 이런 훌륭한 책에 악풀은 삼가해 주시길 진정으로 바랍니다.

      저는 한국을 떠난지 30년에 가까와서 잘 몰라요 .. 이분은 한국을 떠난지 40년 넘고.. 외국인의 입장이 되다보니 다소 거슬리는 말이라도 .. 이분의 진심으로 외치는 그마음 .. 그마음을 헤아려 주시고 마음 푸시면 좋겠어요.
