"Punch" is the name of the adorable baby monkey. There was no violence, thankfully. All of the animals are unharmed.

I defer to you I do not actually know you are correct. I do know how I heard that Japan's cursive system involved execution and that is it. Traditionally. There was like the death penalty and that is it the fuedal in Japan, hard world.

As to the koreans, I worked at a place where there were Koreans and I would wave at them and they would snub me I asked someone and they told me the Koreans are very hierarchical and to not believe in acknowledging existence of those below them. Hold on
