My mom only had one eye. I hated her... she was such an embarrassment. My mom ran a small shop at the local market. She collected little weeds and such to sell... anything for the money that we needed, she was such an embarrassment.
There was this one day during primary school. I remember that it was field day, and my mom came. I was so embarrassed. How could she do this to me? I cast her a hateful look and ran away. The next day at school...’your mom only has one eye?!' and they taunted me. I wished that my mom would just disappear from this world, so I said to my mom, 'Mom, why don't you have the other eye?! You're making me a laughing stock. Why don't you just die?' My mom didn't respond.
I guess I felt a little bad, but at the same time it felt good to think that I had said what I'd wanted to say all this time. Maybe it was because my mom didn't punish me, but I didn't think that I had hurt her feelings. That night...I woke up and went to the kitchen to get a glass of water. My mom was crying there, so quietly, as if she was afraid that she might wake me. I took a look at her and then turned away.
Because of the thing I had said to her earlier, there was something pinching at me in the corner of my heart. Even so, I hated my mother who was crying out of her one eye.

I left my mother and came to Seoul and studied, and got accepted in the Seoul University with all the confidence I had. Then, I got married. I bought a house of my own. Then I had kids too. Now I'm living happily as a successful man.
I like it here because it's a place that doesn't remind me of my mom. This happiness was getting bigger and bigger, until someone unexpected came to see me 'what?! Who's this?!' ...It was my mother...Still with her one eye. It felt as if the whole sky was falling apart on me. My little girl ran away, scared of my mom's eye. And I yelled at her, ’who are you? I don't know you!!!' I screamed at her 'How dare you come to my house and scare my daughter! GET OUT OF HERE! NOW!!!' And to this, my mother quietly answered, 'oh
