Japanese Manga

Manga plays an important role of Japanese culture. Manga attracts people from all over the world. Many people learn Japanese and visit Japan because they like Japanese manga. I have to admit that reading manga is fun and sometimes useful. I used to read manga, but I don't read manga for a long time. 

I rarely read manga because I like reading novels. While reading novels, I can imagine my own world, but I can't do that by reading manga. I easily lost concentration while reading manga. Manga has the authors image already. That makes me bored.

Boycott Campaign on Winter Olympics

I happen to read an article about dog meat. An animal protection group is against the Winter Olympics in Korea and has held a boycott campaign because Korean people eat dog meat.

They said an estimated 2.5 million dogs are slaughtered and eaten as health food each year in Korea. In addition they import millions of dog meat from China. This kind of anti campaigns were held some times before, 1988 Olympics and 2002 FIFA World Cup. 

I really like dogs as pets, so the article is disgusting to me. It's easy to criticize the custom, but come to think of it, we couldn't. 

You might eat beef, pork, chicken and even some Japane eat whale meat. What's the difference? Even abandoned pets are killed in many advanced countries. 

You cannot live on without taking in living things. You mustn't forget the fact. 

But dogs....
