- In order to be happy later, Right now being miserable[1] is acceptable?

##. Miserable is not acceptable for me. But some troubles, efforts or pains are acceptable. Miserable is different from trouble. If I had the target to achieve, I could bear some efforts and pains but not miserableness. To success, we should make many efforts. But, if it were forced to have some miserableness, we should doubt the truth of the later happiness. We should try not to lose one’s pride.
In the case of Auschwitz, the one who tried not to lose their pride were survived than who did not.  

 

- What do you think about fur[2] clothes? Something made by skin.

##. After heard of the animal rights, I thought about the fur-coat. When I was young, I liked the leather jacket and had one. My wife said to me, “It is similar to Tom Cruise of Top Gun.” It was very nice out-fit. But now-days, I wonder which is better between a natural leather production and plastic production from oil. Both are concerning about the environment issues. I like shoes and belt which was made of Buffalo’s leather. I dislike fur coat of fox. It is some confusing for me.

Might be, we should wear leaps of wood and naked feet later.

 

- Would you tell us how important the first impression is?

Most of peoples tends to have prejudices. I think, many people judge someone what he is by the first seeing. What wears, what speaks, what word uses, how his face and eyes is. And we know that one’s outfit does not tell all of him. But we should admit doing our mistake at first sight.

So we must try to wear and to speak gently and warmly. And we do not let the other person make a mistake with your first impression.

 

- To keep the relationship for a long time what will be the most important thing do you think?

##. My opinion is, the first is the truth and kindness. And next are listen than talk, suggest than order. Thirds are feeling the same way about one’s stories.

And if they had many memories sharing each other, it would be easier to keep their relationship for long time.

 

- New York or London which city do you prefer? And Why?

##. New York, I prefer. Because London might be clouds and rains in my imagination. But New York is familiar by many photos and movies.  

The movies in set in New York are, Home Alone, bat man, spider man, king kong and once upon a time, night at the museum.

 

- What do you think about social life of MZ generation?

##. The life of MZ generation in some TV gag shows is distorted and exaggerated, I think. Because their showings are as same as my young days. I heard the X The social beginners are unfamiliar to every social organizations and cultures. And have many mistakes. Because everything of their experiences are the first chance to them. No one can run as soon as birth.

So it is uncomfortable that their mistakes are consumed as gag materials. And I wish these phenomena ends soon.

 

- What are some good points about social networking?

##. The same purpose. For example, hobby or business, politics, NGOs. Those who have the same purpose, it can be easier to gather and to close each other. But without a certain theme, extending and sustaining social network is very difficult and not efficient. So, if you want to close to someone, find and understand what his concern is.

 

- When did you first have a part-time job?

##. It was at high school days. A summer vacation, I and one of my friend were to have an Arbeit. And we went to an office. There were many peoples. The job was the door to door sales(방문판매). Those days, door to door sales item was various. For example, cosmetic things, drink of yogurt, books of the complete series of world literature, Encyclopedias, cars, and household goods. My case was household goods. Scrubs, washing globes, cleansers, chop knives.

In early morning, we paid some money and receive a big bag within goods. And go to the suburb, there was no supermarket (now days we calls it mart or convenience store). I found a house in the center of the field, I went to the house across the rice field, and knocked. “Hey madam, listen my stories. These goods are how excellent is….” I wandered all days, and return the office, I got refund for the left goods. What I earned all days was just same as the cost of lunch and bus. It was a valuable experience for me. Nothing is free in this world. No work no gain.

 

- Describe a accept mistake or something you should not have done during the university life.

##. I don't remember it because it has past so long time.

I did not care my health.

 

Several years ago, I had quit the company, I often regret it. That time, I did not have the courage to face to the superior’s suggestion of my resignation. I believed his word to recommend to hire another partner company. But he did not keep his word. I felt betrayed after some months. And I should look for new company.
