Since he couldn't afford to feed meat to everyone in his family , he would
secretly take me out and feed me meat , telling me to come home only af
ter the meat smell had disappeared from my clothes .
I lived my life feeling my mother’s passionate love with my whole body .
Because it was a time when everyone was experiencing difficulties ,
What kind of parents haven't gone through hardships ?
My mother seems to have had a particularly hard time .
There were many times when people around me clicked their tongues an
d asked, ‘How can people live in such difficult times? ’
Whenever you feel tired and in pain ,
My mother always looked out for us three sons and four daughters .
My mother always said .
A woman is said to be a female pilsamjong (女必三從) , meaning that she
follows her parents when she is born , and when she gets married
to follow her father , and to follow her children when her father dies.
He used to say .
And my mother did as she said ,
I always taught that to my sisters and brothers ,
He taught me and other men that when a man divorces his wife, he must
never abandon her because she is sick , has no family to return to , or
has no other way to live . At least for my mother, home was her only san
ctuary . He lived his life feeling that it must be followed and that it was
so natural .
And the person who practiced it throughout her life was my mother .
Perhaps because of my mother's influence, I tried very hard to protect m
y family . No one will understand how I feel .
It was because my body had become wet without me knowing .
If my mother fights with the neighborhood kids or causes any trouble , s
he always scolds them. He struck us .

Sometimes, I was a little dissatisfied with my mother .
