(중앙일보 8.2. 2019: 해리스 주한 미 대사, 미의 두동맹인 한일대립 지켜보는 건 고통)
용어도 생소하고, 잘 알지 못한다. 다만 미국은 한·미·일 3자 관계 강화에 전념한다는 점을 얘기하고 싶다.
특히 올해 우리는 북한 김정은이 약속을 지키도록 압박하고, 유엔 제재와 그 밖의 모든 것을 준수하도록
해야 한다. 아시아에서 한·일이 함께 적극 관여하지 않고서 해결 가능한 경제적 또는 안보적 문제는 없다.
한·일이 대립하면, 북한 비핵화 문제와 중국으로 인한 도전들, 그 밖의 다른 중요한 이슈에 대응하는 게
어렵게 된다. 미국은 한·일이 문제를 해결할 수 있길 희망하며, 그렇게 되도록 두 나라를 강력하게 독려할
것이다.”(본문에서)

I have read all those things that Harris wrote.
Yes, now, we are living in a new era when and where SK and Japan must get together
to defend ourselves against China. Of course, the big mother of the U.S. wants us to be that way too.
According to all political, military, diplomatic, and strategic wisdom, and for mutual defense,
we should go the way the U.S. wishes us to follow. No doubt about it.
But there's one thing we and the U.S. forgot that keeps SK and Japan from joining together
like brothers and friends.
It's the emotion of Koreans that has nothing to do with being historically smarter!
Somehow, Koreans have a deep-seated distrust and unforgiving animosity against Japanese.
I guess those things had gotten ingrained into our psychology sometime in our sad and regrettable past.
And we simply can not forget those emotions and it won't dissipate so easily in a short time.
So, let's not blame everything to the current politicians and the people of SK.
Some South Koreans would rather trust communist North Koreans than trusting Japanese.
In the hearts of the South Koreans, there is an irresistible yearning toward the North Koreans
as if they, not Japanese, are our true brothers. This emotion may surpass the political barrier.
Blood can be thicker than scholarly intelligence or wisdom. The race is race, the blood is blood.
For me, I still don't trust Japanese.
I don't mind shaking hands with Japanese golfers in California at any time.
But I would not shake hands with that SOB by the name of Abe.
Please forgive me. I can't help !!

Seventy five years ago, there were nation building projects on the virgin land where
the native people could not claim their sovereignty. One in north was the fortress for
China and another in South was the fortress for Japan. Japan was the barrier islands
for the defense of Pacific Ocean and United States. Native people were blindsided the
purpose of their existence as a nation. Finally, the native people are beginning to know
the reason why they are separated as the south are talking to the owner of the north and
the north talking the owner of the south. And one day they will find out that they have
to do it on their own in order to build one nation on their breached land.

America has been very nice and generous. The country has been known to
advocating freedom, equality and democracy. But she is not a charity organization.
Her priority has always been national interest. I am afraid someday we as American
citizen will be between a hard and a rock place because of the conflict of interests between
SK and America.
