Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 I was born in 1942, in the northernmost part of Korea, which was then called Chosen. The mountain known as General Peak stood exactly 216 meters away, and I was born on 2/16. There are too many significant facts associated with my birth for them all to be a mere coincidence. #2 The Japanese invaded Korea in 1895 and took control of the country, reducing the Korean people to slaves. The Japs imposed their rule on the country, depriving Korea of any diplomatic rights. Korea was no longer an independent nation, but a colony completely ruled by Japan. #3 The Korean people were constantly put down by the Japanese, and they desperately wished for a leader who could lead them to victory over the Japanese. #4 I was raised on my mother telling me about Father and his upbringing. She taught me about the validity of the revolutionary cause and its inevitable victory. She described the glory and happiness of fighting for the cause.
