Some Korean journalists printed wild speculation that Yoko Kawashima Watkin's father was a member of the infamous Unit 731. Amid the nationalist frenzy, the publisher of the Korean translation of So Far from the Bamboo Grove decided to halt further sales of the book, as it would be inappropriate to sell a book that had been written by the daughter of a man the media had decided was a horrible war criminal
.
many Japnese know they did such things...
that is why It is not surprised for me .

However, The lie of the journalist in South Korea is so ugly

Written by Japanese-American Yoko Kawashima Watkins, "So Far from the Bamboo Grove" depicts the time when the Japanese colonial occupation of the Korean Peninsula ended in 1945 from the perspective of 11-year old Yoko, who has to flee Korea with her family. In the story, reportedly based on the real-life experiences of the writer, young Yoko witnesses Koreans' ruthless attacks and rape of the fleeing Japanese and the ensuing hunger, agony and death while she escapes from Nanam in today's North Korea through Seoul and Busan to Japan.

* Excellent book exposed brutality nature of Koreans.I have also read at least one English translated book ( written by Korean author ) described some civilian Japanese were stoned to death etc.
 
the books is hoax. it never happened.

I, too, can write a book about something that never happened.
 
And be quick, we have the Berlinale Filmfestival here soon, during the next days, with lots of asians coming too (some are friends, or friends of friends). They might like to film it then.
Any sensation or not yet outspoken truth may do, from any side ;-)
