Comment:
During the Japanese occupation, many atrocities were committed against civilians. In fact, it is well-known that anyone who was found to be against the Japanese during that time, whether directly, indirectly, or merely suspected, was often executed and tortured. Therefore, Liu Yulin's action was a brave and selfless act, as it meant risking his life for the cause
