Going Home With Kalong Wewe And Some Other Things
I was often told of Kalong Wewe back when I was a kid. I have never seen a Kalong Wewe but this Kalong Wewe should be an old and mean witch, who liked to kidnap children. Kalong Wewe would start to look for children as the sun goes down. That was how "go home before dark" became one of the most important rule for the children, at least, in my neighborhood. Little did I know, in Japan, especially in public places, there's a song that will be played at the same time everyday as a reminder for the children that's it's late, and that it is time to go home. Is it not a very beautiful thing, to have someone/something telling you, that it is enough for today, that it's time to come home?
