Before the activity, about 30% of Mie children answered that they either "strongly like" or "like" Korean kids. The same rate went up to almost 70% after the activity.


Looking at the comments, a Mie child who answered that Korean children are "scary" before the activity answered "they seemed to be a lot of fun and cheerful people". The ones who answered "I do not know about Korea or Korean kids" before the activity said "It was fun" or "They were similar to us although their language was different" afterwards.

On the other hand, about 50% of Korean children answered they either "like" or "strongly like" Mie ones before the activity. The same rate went up exceeding 80% after the event.


Before the activity, there were Korean children who said "Japan is close but far country to Korea" or "I hate Japanese government". This has changed after the activity, and they commented: "Even though Japanese government might be bad, the people are not the same", "Japanese people are funny / kind", and "They are very similar to us but some of they seemed to be unique".
