What's so unusual about this? Even if it were true, it would happen between any two countries. Are you saying that you are concerned about every citizen of the world?

I have a Japanese friend who is half Korean and hides it because he fears how people will treat him. He is close to 50 years old lived all is life in Japan, knows nothing about Korea, but is sort of ashamed or afraid of what people would think if they found out he was half Korean.
If he is 50% Korean and he knows nothing about Korea, you should be wondering what's wrong with him instead of what's wrong with those of us who are 0% Korean. It would, in fact, be very difficult to find a Japanese person who knows nothing about Korea, especially at age 50.
