The Koren people look at Japan so differently to most of us in the world due to prior take-overs of Korea in yrs gone by, WWII & Korean War. I sponsoured a Korean chap & his wife plus their newly born daughter.
What an education for he was really well off in South Korea with something like 4 acres of orchard land & ONLY sold to China along with only learning their language, to help in sales, along with the addition of English & quite good with latter bar our slang.
He had NEVER driven a truck, car or tractor so I taught him. Also he just about jumped out of his skin when I bought out my Winchester 1897 pump shotgun to down some Starling birds. His orchard was just north of Sigon so taken over during the Koren War.
I took him up to our h/gun range, just the two of us there, & he was simply terrified of my h/guns, but you should have seen the smile on his face when he fired his first .22 rnd from a revolver. No he never went into f/arms & like myself his is now retired, but he gained understand in f/arms & my reloading. In fact there is a Korean chap that has a much better understanding of how Bill C-68 in Cdn has NOT done what it claimed in safety to others & only the civilian law-abiding tax paying citizens suffer along with many small Mom & Pop sport shops were forced to fold up since anythng f/arm related was to costly in bills/red-tape & such to cover their costs, when in fact it was almost 25% of their business.
