  "May I take the cast net?" "Of course." There was no cast net and the boy remembered when they had sold it. But they went through this fiction every day. There was no pot of yellow rice and fish and the boy knew this too. The old man and the boy care about each other. The tacit lie is like saving face for each other and keeping the relationship going

  They do it because they love nature and like to challenge themselves, but also want to exercise their patience and perseverance through fishing. In their conversation, they talked about fishing techniques, strategies, and their respective fishing experiences. By telling the story of the old man and the boy fishing together, this book shows their perseverance in the face of difficulties.

  They tell lies and talk about baseball and fishing. The old man believed that he could catch the big fish at some time next time, and the boy immediately agreed. They did so because the fishermen lived in a poor environment and had few recreational activities at that time, and because they had a good relationship.
