I had traveled from Europe into Asia, finally reaching Korea. Although I had gone by land, the journey had taken a very short time, and on one day alone I had gone from southern Asia to Korea. When I reached Korea, I telephoned my father and we talked for a while.
I talked with someone in Korea about the history of Asia. I was told that Asia had been conquered in ancient times by the Europeans and had been controlled by the Europeans until modern times. In 1930 a European ship had been sunk, and that had been the beginning of Asian rebellion against the Europeans. Finally, Vietnam had been the first country to achieve independence from the Europeans.
