Heart Sutra of Healing. . . . Love. Love. . Love.

Tears of a Demon: Smiles of a K-Pop Hero

Born in Korea,

Loved school, love favorite subject, recess.

Language acquisition of

Laughing, running, and jumping.

Loved life, moved to Japan!

Beaten, bullied, and bruised,

Ran home crying, and confused from hearing,

“Zainichi, Zainichi, Zainichi.”

“Death to Koreans!”

Love life, moved to Italy!

Played in Catholic school,

Mother Mary is Goddess Kuan Yin,

Laughing, running, and jumping.

Beaten, bullied, and bruised.

Ran home crying, and confused from hearing

“Jap, Jap, Jap!”

“Death to Japs!”

Love life, moved to America!

Beaten, bullied, and bruised.

Ran home crying and confused from hearing,

“Jap, Go Home! Jap!”

“Jap! Death to Jap!”

Mother holding me, telling me tenderly!

Not Jap! Made of lightness,

My love, my heart, my son!

By baby boy, forgive them!

“Hanguk-saram! Hanguk-saram! Hanguk-saram!

Korean! Korean! Korean!”

Never Give Up Hope!

Tales of the Strange.

Now Loving all Japanese, all Italians,

and all Americans.

We are each other,

forgiving each other,

It starts with love. . .

loving one another. . .
