Concept of "Freedom" in my country.

In my country, Freedome is called as "Ja-Yu". "Ja-Yu" can be seperated
into two words. Before reading, what you must remind is that thease two
words are Just pronounciations of chinese characrer. Chinese characters
are used only as a noun in Korea. So, though this words have many
meanings, They are only used as a noun. While reading this blog,
Please keep this fact in your mind for your better reading.

First part(and also word) of that word which called "Ja" means 'self '
in common. Korea, my home country, "Ja" means doing tasks oneself.
For example, when you have some tasks assigned, finishing that tasks
by yourself can be described as "Ja" which is used as an adjective. Also,
If a nation have soverignty, Korean regards this nation
as a real nation which has "Ja" used as a noun. In conclusion,
Meaning of "Ja" consists of both an adjective and noun in Korea.
But, as I writed in previous paragraph, It is used only as noun.
So, after all, "Ja" means somthing like soverignty and self-power
making oneself independent and distinguishable.

In case of other word called "Yu", Meaning of this word is simple.
It can be just defined as 'exist'. Allthough You think it seems to be a verb,
It is used as a noun. Maybe You think Korea's language is diffuse. But,
Please tolerate by your tolerance.
Eventually, "Ja-Yu" means "Self exists". It is a inclusive word.
Because of it's inclusion, Freedom's meanig in America may be similar to
Korea's. Though Korea don't have historys like prtesting against their tyrant
American did, People of Korea also had desired unalienable right, such as
Freedom Your ancesters asked in "The declaration of independence", for
their history ruled by Kings and nobles. Therefor, one it is certein that
Both Korean and American know Value and preciousness of Freedom
together. In terms of that commoness, I can sympahize determination and
sincreness of That declaration.
Before reading that declaration, I can hardly know the reason why
Americans wanted to separate from Brithish kingdom. But now, I can
understand why Americans thinked governing of England as despotism,
why Americans pettioned their king for Redress and why Americans have
praised Indepence day every year.
I also praise your Indepence day by my humble sincereness.
