Oral history has a task of seeking historical truths. But the author tries to find a way to contribute to healing historical wounds in oral history since oral history interviews provide chances for self-reflection through narrating past experiences. Oral history interviews have been considered to be useful for healing the historical wounds. As examples, the author reviews the features of narratives among the Holocaust survivors and Comfort girls for Japanese Army during the WWII. Next, the author examines the oral history interviews of one Gaepung native in North Korea. The Gaepung native, a son of wealthy farmer born in 1926 had to take a refuge to Seoul leaving his mother, wife and a son in his native place during the Korean War. This examination discloses the author’s main concern for historical reconstruction of the division of nation through his lived experiences without paying much attention to his historical trauma and its healing. Thus, the author argues the oral history interviewers should take the empathy and concern for healing of historical wounds into consideration in their research agenda. For this, the author suggests to emphasize listening and more attention to narrative styles in oral history interviews. Lastly the author argues that oral history interviews are very similar to humanistic therapy and that individual empathy and healing should lead to social empathy and healing.
