Lunch boxes.

Boxed lunches are those japanese things. And he said he and his mom ate a box lunch. An American wouldn't say "we ate a lunch box", so it's not just switching the words around, it's a different concept.

Um..that's the point. That's why they are two different concepts.

lol @ the TL detective agency.

Perhaps oP is the original author.

I'd like to hear his response.

I feel sad, too. T_T

One of my friends translated this from 2ch (a Japanese bulletin board) and posted it in a bulletin on MySpace. I thought it was a sweet little story and was just something nice to think about (Sorry, but I thought you guys would know that my parents weren't dead since I wrote about them on here before T_T)

Link: http://www.9033700kg.com/others/k_aa2nd.html

He told me they made a flash movie about it and I went to look for it for you guys, but I fell asleep and only just woke up and saw that since I had left you guys hanging, that quite a misunderstanding had stirred up.

But I suppose it's my fault for not saying it's a short story, but I just intended it to be something to read, nothing else. (And sorry GTR, I'll respond to your PM about SaSin)yeon shortly. Like I said, I've been asleep all day)

And at least I found the video, finally. Thanks, guys.

Edit: And I realize that it was probably made worse because of the "mom dying at the end of last year" line and it being January. I just realized that, too. Wow, I feel like an asshole now. T_T

Edit 2: Also, the English used in the subtitles of the video is very similar to this English used in this translation (frugally?) which makes me wonder if he even translated it at all. Maybe that's why he wouldn't just show me the video. -_-;;

Edit 3: And I may just delete this entry. I'm so embarrassed, I can't even bring myself to read any of the responses. I can't say sorry enough. I've always tried to provide (though sometimes not very well) TL with Korean progaming stories and information and I would never try and make you all feel miserable for no reason.

Manner, please.

It's my fault, of course, for leaving it up here all day in such a creepy, cryptic fashion with no explanation and no credit given, so I don't blame anyone for wanting to hear both sides of the story.

And yes, I realize I'm probably taking this too seriously, but whatever.

I read your post then I went to go get food at Whataburger so you can see the huge time gap. Your post was still unedited so I responded to it before the edit(since I left my comp on).
