Around August 15 1945 in one Korean family (2)

Mr. Park Inho brought forward my sister's resume to a town office of Helog prefecture, where he was　working, and a personal department officer said to him, You should not bring　such a resume but one handwritten by herself.

As Mr. Park explained that it was a resume written by　herself, the officer　agreed to test it.

After the officer confirmed it was her genuine letter and was surprised by　her good handwriting, he employed her on the very day.

When she was in the 5th grade in the Hido elementary school in Taegu, she exhibited her work　as a representative of her school for all Japan student'ｓ calligraphy　exhibition and won the bronze prize. She was so a talented woman.

Her award was reported on every newspaper in Seoul and　Taegu. She seemed to　have been very popular in her school.

After working at the village office of Helong for 4 months, she was　picked up for the　personal department of the prefecture office of Helong as a maiden excellent calligrapher. She could get not　only salary raise but also special food tickets for　Japanese, though at that time food ration was ranked in 4 grades, for Japanese, for Korean, for　Manchurian and for Chinese. I have heard they gave special preference to her.

My sister wrote a letter to Taegu and explained her　situation and asked to　send clothes to her.

In Taegu all family members got set and sent 8 clothes, so her many clothes　drew public attention and they said,What much dress she keeps!. She became an object of envy.

In May, 1944 she evacuated to Manchu, and in July 15, 1945 retuned to our home　town Taegu.

In those days the trend of women volunteer corps changed, so we cabled her　frequently about our mother's critical condition and as it influenced effectively she was able to return home.

One month later the War ended, so, if she could not come back at that time,　she would have a terrible experience. Really she was a lucky person.
