When my name was Keoko: setting
It is the old days when Korea used to be conquered to Japanese empire, about 1940s to 1950s. Koreans arent able to use their own language, they are required to speak in Japanese and write in kanji, if people spoke in Korean, they get punished. The Japanese people was able to commandeer things to Koreans, and the Koreans HAD to listen to the Japanese. Also, Koreans couldnt be in high occupations where they can command to the Japanese. Everything is different from these days, Koreans were almost like Japanese's slave.

YEah I know those times mainly because of social studies class. But it must have been really hard for koreans those days becuase they had to listen and obey what the Japanese told them to like they were their slaves or something. I think that your descrpition and theme on this story is very concise and picks out the important parts of the story.
