My poor mother-in-law, who
suffers from insomnia every night, has had a hard time living with my grandmother-in-law
for 50 years.
"Don’t shine your
husband shoes?" came up to me who drinking coffee under a quiet backyard
palm tree. The grandmother-in-law also said, when I was trembling to go out in
the car. "Come on, do not wipe the car?”
I went to my in-law house in
L.A. to prepare for the wedding. The Grandmother-in-law kept nagging a busy grandchild-in-law. So how much did she scold her daughter-in-law?
The year of Il Sung Kim’s death
was 1994. I knew that if Il Sung Kim dies, it would be unified. It is because
the desire of "unification" which was circulating in the mouth since
childhood. The same year my grandmother died.
The expectation that my
mother-in-law would spend comfortable old age away from the shadows of the grandmother-in-law
went wrong. The mother-in-law goes out and says that she should go home as if the grandmother-in-law is waiting at home at dusk. If she didn’t return home until sunset, she
punished for her life. I wonder if the grandmother-in-law is calling her, she
wants to go to the afterlife as soon as
possible.
She escaped from Hamkyung-do,
North Korea and lived in Habangchone under Namsan in Seoul. US Army fighter
jets bombed the People's Army Base, which was installed at the
top of Mt. Namsan to catch US Army fighter jets. When People’s Army occupied
Seoul, the surrounding area was all about hell. The mother-in-law was bombarded
right in front of the house and witnessed her neighbor dying from the blood of
a broken body, crying for water. The moment she stepped out of the door to draw
water, the figure of the army soldier who fell down in front of the people's
army guns while being crying for the civilian clothes was stamped on her memory
for life.
As soon as she left home to
go to next door to comfort from fear, the house was hit by a direct. While
returning home, the paper money that the grandmother-in-law kept in the ceiling was
completely crumbled. She put it in the basket and attached a few pieces, and
got tired and threw it away. Are these pitiful memories circling the minds of
the mother-in-law like a faded black-and-white photograph?
I felt strange to see the mother-in-law
sobbing at the funeral of the grandmother-in-law. Is it because most of the mother-in-law's
feelings were through the grandmother-in-law's nagging? And it is because the
object has disappeared?
