lisa's opinion

From page 117-139, Apa is very cruel to his own mother and daughter. He slaps them without any valid reasons. One of the reasons is because Young plays with Amanda, who is American. He does not care how Young has already tried to avoid Amanda’s family because Apa does not like them. Uhmma is very afraid of Apa and she could not fight against him. Until she finds out that Apa slap Young and she starts cursing him. She mentions everything that she kept from him, such as, his pride, his weakness, and his children who are hiding everything from him. Apa is very mad and slap her. Then, Young called 911 and they are saved from Apa. This is very cool because finally Uhmma can say it to Apa what she felt and how is the situation in their family. All the habits that he did at home has been influenced by his drunkenness habit, his stressful of working and his pride. In the middle of the story, Uhmma tells Young that Apa is a nice guy.  I agree with Uhmma about Apa. He acted very cruel to his family maybe because he is stressful. However, I do not like how Apa response and act to his family. How prideful he is when he does not appreciate Young’s award. Also, he does not care to his family. On the other hand, Park Joon Ho absents for a couple times from school. I think he wants to rebel from Apa. He does not mention a clear reason why he was absent. However, from his explanation, he was sick of Apa who does not give him a freedom. Apa does not know what Park Joon Ho did. In some cases, I agree with his action because he wants to rebel Apa. Hopefully, when he becomes a father, he will not repeat Apa’s behavior.
