Lesson 12
To My Unknown Cousins

Topic 1 To My Unknown Cousins 1

To my North Korean cousins:
Hi! I'm Kim Gyeonghui, your cousin from South Korea. Though I don't know your names, I am dying to talk to you. I live in Junggok-dong in Seoul with my grandparents, parents, sister and brother. We are all your blood kin. It is heartbreaking that our families cannot meet face-to-face.
I am in the eighth grade. I study hard so that I can go to college.
I complain about having to study so much at school. But when I think of you, I feel ashamed about my complaints.
I have many relatives to meet when North and south unify in the future. My mother's parents have passed away, and my father's parents are very old. I am worried about this. I hope we can exchange letters or see each other before unification. I wish you could say hello to my grandparents before they pass away.

Topic 2 To My Unknown Cousins 2

What do you think about the Korean summit talks? I truly believe this may help us to meet soon. Do you know that the Korean War is not yet really over? Even if this summit doesn't help achieve unification, I pray that we will never have another war.
The exchanges between North and South Korea are increasing. Even this week, there were many North Koreans in town for cultural shows. I know you were among them. Even though I don't know your faces, names of ages, I love you. Even thought I don't know how many of you there are, I want to meet you.
Please give my regards to your family. When we meet, let's greet each other with big, bright smiles. I am ending this letter to you with my earnest wish for unification.
Bye for now. My heart is closer to you than you know.
Your cousin,
Gyeonghui

How are you these days?
Why? What happened?
I watched the closing ceremony of the Olympic Games late last night.
But your country will do better next time.
