My Mother's Grandparents and My Mother.

by Vivian

I really want to introduce my grandparents history but I don't know how grandparents met each other because I wasn't alive when that happened. They died when I was young. I hope to tell you about my parents so when I asked them they just smiled and said nothing about their story. I had to guess my family's history through all of the information that I have heard from other people in my family.

I want to tell you the story of my mother's grandparents before my parents had met each other. As you know, Korean ancesters have had very hard experiences.The main hardship was the invaision of Korea by Japanese.

Unfortunately When they were borned, Our contry was invaded from Japan. They had to use Japanese. The Japanese controlled a lot of things in Korea. After that expeience, my grandfather had to fight in the Korean war as a solider. He told me that he went from the Ablok river to the top of North Korea from Seoul by marching.

After the end of the war, My mother was borned. She is smart and kind. My mother entered university. She wasn't interested in meeting a man in there, because at that time in Korea most woman met a man in order to only marry. After graduating from her university, she got a job. She made friends in her company, finally her friend introduced her to my father. She didn't tell me detailed story, but I believe that was Her's first love.
