SEOUL—At 4:50 on February 24, the third performance of Divine Performing Arts Chinese Spectacular dropped the curtain at the Peace Hall of Kyung Hee University in Seoul. In the audience was Ms. Jin from Liaoning, China who was brimming with tears.

Ms. Jin, who was visiting a relative in Korea said, "The show has given me too much vibration. Living in China for more than 40 years, I have never seen or heard that China has such broad and profound culture, and it is the happiest thing in my life to see such an unadulterated show [she cried with excitement as she spoke of this]. The costumes, expressions, and background of dances are all too beautiful, too splendid! As a Chinese, I am so proud, truly proud!"

She said, "I don't know why my tears fell unstoppably throughout the show, it is as if something is touching the deepest place of my soul. The lyrics of the songs have very deep meaning—where am I from, what am I here on earth for?"

"I have a relative in China practicing Falun Gong, and we all know he is a good and kind person. He used to have all kinds of illnesses, and he became healthy by practicing Falun Gong, we all know that."

"But once the Chinese Communist Party started to suppress, we failed to condemn the suppressor, only to accuse the suppressed. The program 'Awakening' awakened my conscience [she again cried emotionally as she spoke of this], kind people have been suppressed, we cannot be silent any more."

At the end, Ms. Jin said that she definitely was going to tell Chinese people what she saw and heard in Korea when she is back home.
