dont involve the wife

Answer 1

The relationship between Tok-cha and his son has been affected by the war because Tok-cha, who was once a strong and respected man, is now a broken and defeated figure. The text states, "His father, who had prided himself on his strength and unyielding spirit, had been crushed" (Hwang). This quote shows how Tok-cha's experience in the war has fundamentally altered him, leading to a strained and distant relationship with his son.
