During a trip to South Korea in the 1964, he apologizes publicly to a group of South Korean students for the wrongs Japan committed during its occupation in the past. Japan seals the wrongs to justify and to fabricate history as winner. Years later Yusuke and Miho search all over Japan and South Korea for memorials for those who fought and died for Japan in World War II, in which America too remains to seal real purpose of atomic bombs dropped in Hiroshima and Nagasaki in fabricated reason as winner.
Throughout the novel, the narrator contemplates a variety of ideas besides love and forgiveness, including the meaning of the phrase 'bleached bones.'
