In 1945, a Japanese woman threw a wink at MacArthur at a drinking party, and MacArthur, whose bones were crispy, did not care about his wife and children in the United States, and instantly fell into this woman's gentle hometown.
This woman's name is Setsuko Hara, and her seemingly casual glance is the beginning of a political exchange, and she herself is regarded by many Japanese people as a humiliating person because of this action.
Setsuko Hara was born in a small place in Kanagawa Prefecture, and her family conditions were already average, but she had a total of 8 brothers and sisters, so sometimes even having enough to eat was a luxury.
But as Hara Setsuko grows up little by little, her characteristics are gradually revealed, she is unbelievably beautiful, and many people around her say that Hara Setsuko will definitely eat because of this face in the future, and this is indeed the case.
After graduating from Hara Setsuko elementary school, she entered a girls' school, but because her family was really poor, she finally chose to drop out of school, and her brother-in-law was also a member of the Japanese film industry at that time, which brought her into the film industry.
In 1935, Setsuko Hara made her film debut, which also made her famous, not because of how superb her acting skills were, but mostly because of her beautiful and touching face.
And with the increasing number of Setsuko Hara's fans, countless people began to pursue her, and she also had her own future, which also gave Japanese politicians at that time the idea of bringing her into the political world.
Since 1937, with the help of the Japanese government, Hara Setsuko has participated in a number of Japanese "national policy films", the content of which is nothing more than the promotion of their own "militarism".
Because of this, Setsuko Hara became synonymous with Japanese imperialism for a while, and with the defeat of Japan, her status naturally declined, and even many people vented their anger on her.
It was at this point that she and MacArthur came together, and she didn't really want to do that, but she didn't have a choice, because once the political game began, it couldn't be stopped.
The United States sent MacArthur to Japan, and their original plan was to remove the Japanese emperor from power and imprison him.
The Japanese emperor was frightened when he learned of this, so he had the idea of wooing MacArthur, after all, this place is not close to the United States, as long as MacArthur can help him, he has a chance of life.
But this MacArthur, as a powerful person in the American army, naturally did not lack gold, silver and money, and his power and status could not shake him, and finally the Japanese emperor decided to use the beauty trick to close his relationship with MacArthur, so Hara Setsuko accepted the emperor's summons.
At the cocktail party, she threw a wink at MacArthur, MacArthur's bones were crispy, and he didn't care about his wife and children in the United States, and instantly fell into the tenderness of this woman, and after meeting at the cocktail party, MacArthur was conquered by the beauty of Hara Setsuko.
In the days that followed, the two men were paired up, and MacArthur had even forgotten his responsibilities as a father and husband, and the incident was reported in the newspapers and provoked the anger of many Japanese citizens.
In their opinion, the former goddess of cinema is disgraced by doing this, and she is the scum of the Japanese nation. But it also turns out that Hara Setsuko's efforts are useful.
Under MacArthur's maneuvering, the Japanese emperor also temporarily retained his position, which also made him happy. But Hara Setsuko has endured too much in this matter.
Almost every day, people come to her door to point fingers at her, and the newspapers are also crazy to guide public opinion, attributing everything to Hara Setsuko's self-contempt.
And this kind of life, Hara Setsuko endured for a full 6 years, until MacArthur left for North Korea, and everything between them could be regarded as a result.
At this time, Setsuko Hara no longer has the vigor of the past, and instead has a heart that wants to escape from the political game as much as possible, and she begins to return to the film industry.
After that, she ushered in the peak of her career, perhaps everything in the past made her cherish her current life very much, her acting skills were better than before, coupled with her innate beauty, which also set off a lot of waves in the Japanese film industry at that time.
But she has never been married in her life, and she has not left any heirs, some people say that she has a high degree of emotional cleanliness and has lost confidence in love, so she chooses to die alone.
It is also said that after leaving MacArthur, she met someone who made her feel emotional, but the two were not able to get together in the end, which also made her feel sad and chose to live alone.
And no matter which way you say it, it will make people feel a little bleak, Setsuko Hara's life is definitely not smooth, and under her seemingly glamorous life, there are countless grievances and compulsions.
