different interpretations.

There has been much conflict between Korea and Japan, concerning some of the descriptions in Japanese history textbooks. This is attributed to the difference of the system in which textbooks are adopted in school. In Korea, the government chooses the one single description about a historical event, while in Japan the government is prohibited from intervening in the process. In the beginning, event cannot be an event without being articulated; therefore, an event reflect a certain view. Historical events will be open to different interpretations. Japan was defeated, but Korea cannnot attribute all the sufferings they experienced during the war time, to Japan.
