The North Korean girl married in China, and returned to North Korea to visit relatives after 3 years

=Shao: My name is Li Huaqin, and I was born in 1996 in an ordinary family in Pyongyang, North Korea. At the age of 28, I have been living in China for eight years, and I married into this strange country and became a Chinese daughter-in-law. When I think back to when I first came here, my heart is filled with emotion. Three years later, I planned to go back to North Korea to visit my family, but my brother laughed and said that I couldn't leave China.

New to a foreign country

"Have you really decided? to go to China that far?" my brother looked at me worriedly.

I nodded firmly: "Yes, I love him, and I am willing to go to China with him." ”

At that time, I didn't know anything about China, I only knew that there was my lover and the life I wanted. We met online, fell in love, and finally decided to come together. Although my family was a little worried, I firmly believed in my choice.

When I first arrived in China, everything was so unfamiliar. The language is different, the culture is different, and the living habits are completely different. I remember the first time I went to the wet market, I saw all kinds of strange ingredients, and I didn't know what to do at all. Luckily, he was by my side, patiently teaching me how to identify each ingredient, and to tell me what it was used for and how to cook it.

"Look at this, this is tofu, you can fry it, you can also stew it. He said to me, pointing to something white and tender.

I touched it curiously, thinking to myself, "So this is tofu, it looks so soft." ”

In this way, with his help, I gradually adapted to life here and slowly integrated into this big family.

Cultural differences, collisions and fusions

During my time living in China, I faced a lot of challenges. One of the biggest challenges is cultural differences. North Korea and China, while both Asian countries, are worlds apart in many ways.

Once, I was cooking with my mother-in-law. She taught me how to make braised pork, but I found that the seasoning she used was completely different from the one I used in North Korea.

"Mother-in-law, this soy sauce is so salty, it's not like this we use in North Korea. I asked curiously.

The mother-in-law smiled: "Huaqin, this is the taste of China." The tastes are different in each place, and you will slowly get used to it. ”

I nodded, thinking, "Maybe that's the charm of China, each place has its own unique taste and culture." ”

In addition to the differences in diet, there are many other differences. In China, for example, there is a strong emphasis on family and kinship, while in North Korea there is a greater emphasis on collectivity and discipline. These differences confuse me a little, but they also give me a deeper understanding of the country.

Homesickness, but inseparable

In the blink of an eye, I have been living in China for eight years. In these eight years, I have experienced a lot and learned a lot. I gradually adapted to life here and fell in love with the country.

However, homesickness often comes to mind. I miss my family and the mountains and rivers of my hometown. Especially when the festival comes, this kind of longing is even more indescribable.

"Sister, when are you going back to North Korea? My brother asked me on the phone.

I was silent for a moment, then said, "I miss you too, but...... I can't live without it anymore. ”

Yes, I can't live without this vibrant and glamorous country. Here is my love, there is my home, there is my future. It's hard to let go of homesickness, but I know I've found my home.

Three years later, when I embarked on my journey back to North Korea, my heart was filled with anticipation and emotion. I know that wherever I go, my heart will remain in this beautiful country. And my brother's sentence "China you can't live without" has also become the deepest memory and concern between us.

Transnational love, deep and long-lasting

"Do you regret marrying in China?" asked my best friend once, when I was chatting with her.

I shook my head and said with a smile, "No regrets, I'm happy." ”

Yes, I am happy. Although I was far away from my hometown, I found true love and found my own life. My husband has been very nice to me, we have been through a lot of ups and downs together, and our relationship has grown stronger.

I have also made a lot of friends during my years of living in China. They come from different places and have different cultural backgrounds, but we all get along well as a family. We share the bits and pieces of life together and spend every unforgettable moment together.

"Huaqin, what do you think of this?" asked my husband with a skirt.

I took the dress, looked at it and said, "It's beautiful, where did you buy it?"

He smiled mysteriously: "This is the surprise I prepared for you, I hope you like it." ”

I hugged him with emotion: "Thank you, I really like it." ”

These heartwarming moments make me cherish every day here. I know that no matter what happens in the future, I will go on with determination because I have found my own happiness.

When I went home to visit my family, I was excited

Three years later, I finally embarked on my journey back to North Korea. When I stood on the land of my hometown, my heart swelled with endless emotion.

"Sister!" my brother ran over excitedly as soon as he saw me.

I hugged him and tears welled up in my eyes: "Brother, I'm back." "When I go home to visit my family, my heart is surging (1)

I hugged my brother tightly, as if I wanted to release all the thoughts I hadn't seen for three years. My brother hugged me tightly, and I could feel his body trembling.

"Sister, you've changed. The younger brother said suddenly.

I was stunned for a moment and smiled, "Really, where has it changed?"

"It's prettier, it's more temperamental. The younger brother said seriously.

I touched my face and secretly rejoiced in my heart: "Maybe it is China's water and soil to support people." ”

We went home together, and when my mother saw me, tears flowed down her eyes. I hugged my mom and felt like my heart was going to break.

"Mom, don't cry, I'm not back?" I comforted.

Mom wiped her tears and smiled and said, "Okay, okay, just come back." ”

In the evening, we sat around eating as a family. My mother kept picking up vegetables for me, and she was still muttering, "Eat more, see how thin you are." ”

I smiled and took the food from my mother, and my heart warmed. It's been a long time since I've felt this way.

After the meal, my brother and I sat in the yard and chatted. He told me about my family, and I shared my life in China with him.

"Sister, are you really not going back to China?" the younger brother asked suddenly.

I was silent for a moment and said, "I don't know either, but I'm really homesick right now." ”

My brother looked at me and didn't speak. I could feel the worry and reluctance in his eyes.

Cultural Differences, Seeing the Truth in Laughter (2)

During my time in North Korea, I gradually discovered that although I had tried to integrate into life in China, the Korean culture was deeply ingrained in my bones.

One day, I was shopping with a few North Korean friends. We walked up to a Chinese restaurant, and our friends said they wanted to try it.

"Is the Chinese food here authentic?" a friend asked.

I smiled and said, "I think it's not bad, I eat it a lot in China." ”

We walked into the restaurant and ordered a few dishes. After the food was served, the friends tasted it one after another, and then looked at each other.

"Why does it taste different from what we thought?" said one friend, confused.

I tasted it and felt something was wrong. But when I think of the delicious food I ate in China, I can't help but have some doubts.

"Maybe it's because the chefs here aren't doing their job. I laughed.

Friends nodded in agreement. We ended this not-so-satisfying lunch with laughter.

When I got home, I mentioned it to my mom. After hearing this, my mother smiled and said, "The taste of each place is different, and you are used to the taste of North Korea, so you naturally think that Chinese food is not authentic." ”

I nodded, thinking to myself: it turns out that cultural differences are not only due to living habits and ideas, but also to tastes.

Where the heart desires, where is the way home (3)

In the blink of an eye, my family leave in North Korea was coming to an end. During this time, I felt the warmth of home and the love of my loved ones, but I also missed my life in China more and more.

Before leaving, my mother took my hand, her eyes full of reluctance: "Huaqin, do you really want to leave?

I shook my head and smiled, "Mom, I still have a lot of things to deal with in China." Besides, it's not like I'm not coming back. ”

My mother listened to my words and barely squeezed out a smile: "Okay, then you must come back often." ”

I nodded, filled with guilt and helplessness. I know how much my mom wants me to stay with her, but I can't give up my life and my love in China.

My brother took me to the airport. He looked at me and suddenly said, "Sister, in fact, you don't have to be so entangled. ”

I was stunned for a moment and asked, "What do you mean?"

The younger brother smiled and said, "You can live on both sides, you can go back to China if you want to go back to China, and you can go back to North Korea if you want to go back to North Korea." ”

I listened to my brother's words, and my heart suddenly brightened. yes, why should I be so entangled? I can live on both sides, so that I can spend time with my family and continue my life in China.

I looked at my brother gratefully and said, "Thank you, brother." You gave me a good suggestion. ”

The younger brother smiled and said, "No thanks, sister." I just hope you have a good time. ”

I hugged my younger brother, and my heart was filled with gratitude and warmth. I know that no matter where I go, my family will be my strongest support.

epilogue

Now, I've started living on both sides. Although it may feel a bit hard at times, when I see the smiling faces of my family and the little things I do in China, I feel that everything is worth it.

However, there is still a long way to go, and I don't know what challenges and difficulties I will encounter. But I believe that as long as I have love in my heart and the support of my family, I will be able to move forward and meet every challenge in the future.
