Diary Entry (Learning of Kanji)

24th February 1942
Dear Diary,
Today, Abuji told Hyeung-Nim to teach me Kanji every weekend. I hate Kanji! It is the worse subject that I ever fare in. When my little sister teaches, she speaks in the proud tone which makes me feel that I am of a lower authority. To me, Kanji is just another foreign language we Koreans have to learn. Abuji is the vice-principal of the school. Abuji can put a stop to all this nonsense about Kanji lessons. However, Abuji thinks that Kanji is a language we can all use to communicate with one another, thus it is valuable. Am I the only one who hates Kanji?
