About Habitual Sadness
This file contains habitual life of elderly women who were comfort women. Living together in 'House of sharing', they plant vegetables, raise chickens and paint. Not different to other grand mothers. But these grandmothers have memories or historical traces that can't be forgotten and shouldn't be forgotten. The painful days of comfort women when they were taken by force and trampled. Even though they came back home after the war, their wounded days come out abruptly. When they look at others' children and grandchildren, they feel heart sore. And misconduct of Japanese government to cover the comfort women problem with private funds makes them furious. And as time goes by they are fear and impatient about disgraced world. Their sadness becomes daily and habitual thing instead it withdrew intensity. Habitual sadness part 1 put great care in imagination of their pains and historical meaning while part 2 shows their daily life and the sadness which is soaked in their habitual life.
