Plot

When the girl was 8 years old, she spent a lot of time with her father. Their family ran a small hotel for Koreans. Everyone was terribly afraid of the Japanese military, who controlled every word spoken by the Koreans. Mother was known for her culinary skills and many came to them to taste the wonderful dishes prepared by her. Even the Japanese have heard about the food served at the hotel.

One of the guests drank too much wine and, taking advantage of the hospitality of the owners, allowed himself rude remarks about the Japanese. For such words, the death penalty was due, so when the guest left for work, the parents were seriously worried about the future of their only source of income — the hotel. After eavesdropping on her parents’ conversation, Sunja found the lodger and asked him never to return.

The next day, the girl and her parents watched as the military beat him to death. The terrified Sunja thought it was her fault, but she couldn’t help it. In a short time, her beloved father died — he was dying in front of her eyes, in agony. Sunja will carry this memory throughout her life.
