     I spent weeks and weeks wondering why the Japanese woman on the subway was always crying. One day, I finally worked up the courage to ask her. "Hey, Japanese lady, why are you always crying?"

     She didn't say anything in response. I felt embarrassed for myself and returned to my seat. She stared at me for ten long minutes until the train arrived at her stop. She stood and shouted at me, "I'm fucking Korean, you fucking motherfucking fucker!" and dashed out the door.
