“戦争残留孤児の祖母が過ごしてたのがこの場所でした。小さい時に何度か中国へ連れて行ってもらったのですが、当時は砂埃が舞い、煉瓦？土壁？みたいなのに赤い文字で歓迎石家荘みたいのが書かれており今とは全く別物の街でした。 映像で見る今の街もいいですが、僕は記憶の中にある昔の街の方が好きです。”

“The video quality is spectacular. Thank you for making it. Makes me a bit homesick because I really like Shijiazhuang and I've been many times over the past twelve or more years. I hope to return.”
