This looks like a very normal photograph of four beautiful young oriental girls.
But they aren't just any beautiful young oriental girls. They come from four different oriental ethnics: China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan (according to alphabetical order). And they are the best of friends.
Surely we have all heard about the long-term conflict amongst the four Oriental countries: China, Japan, Korea, and Taiwan. Everyone of the countries has one thing or another against the rest, whether secretly or out in the open.
The worldwide debates of recognition on "who came from who", "which culture is mine and not yours", "whose land belongs to whom", etc, etc. What's so important about the national rights to a certain festival or food? Sounded like a few 5-year olds fighting over whose dad is the biggest. How embarrassing.
If only these country leaders could stop for 1 second and take a look at these four young ladies. There may still be a little communication obstacle every once in a while, but that didn't stop them from being friends because they all share the same oriental culture. Priceless connection.
And to those country leaders, I rest my case, as I have on all humans.
So, can you guess who's from which country yet?
