Friday

44. Celebration - Audience

Friday August 15, 2008

The weather was constantly changing all day - sometimes rainy, at other times humid, cloudy and hot - yet many people came and celebrated Korean Independence Day with the "comfort women" *halmunis.

* "halmunis" in Korean, or "ahmas" in Taiwanese means "grandmas". (In Asia, elders are commonly referred to as grandmother or grandfather, whether you are related to them or not, as a way of showing respect.)
