I think storytelling plays an inevitable and important role in Japanese cultural identity and preserving history. As we attend classes from grade 1 to 5, or when we are just 1 to 5 years old, all of us have listened to the stories of Teng Zong or the tales of heroes who led the citizens to win wars against intruders. These stories flood our minds when we think about national identity and history, which serve to preserve our cultural narratives.
