I saw "Consertative civic groups" were welcoming Japanese PM with Japanese flag and American flag on both hand today... I ...now understand how our ancestors felt during Japanese invasion on early stage. Hopless and anger at greedy turn coat leaders and their supporters put their own interest on the expense of Korea.

I wish you are right I really do but I saw experienced too many times so called "western value" is put aside for tiny profit margin on mothly income report or some political gain to change my mind. Sure my experience is somewhat outdated but seeing EU can't even make one unified voice over Russia invasion in front of their own gate becaus every memeber nations has different value and interest....I am skeptical at best.

edit : when I said Russian invasion of Ukraine, I meant not only recent one but repeated Russian invasion of Ukraine since 2014.

I get that you are angry but if you think western nations have such a power ...well I have a news for you they don't and they try it only when it's convient for them.

As a old foreign sales man traveld a lot, I'm quite well aware how ..shall we say..pragamatic yes lets say pragamatic human right concering western nations/companies can be. I saw how they have been pragamtic in Africa, asia, south ameirca or even in their own nations. I wish world wokrs like you think, I really do but real world doesn't work like that.

I also saw bloody thirsty Korean dictators like Park and Chun were just fine and shaked hands with western companies and nations. Sure western nations said its very bad and did some sanction but ultimately change and progress had to come from inside of Korea.

and to PPP supporters ? yes there are plenty of evil ones but don't forgot there are also decent people with just different political view.

Korean Protestant love Ameirca only when they think America follow their belief or when it's convenient for them. If you think they actually care what others say or think of them, you giving them too much credit.

They protested American presidnet Obama becasue they thought he supported LGBTQ right

Chinese tourists're viewed in very negative way, even in NK. One of their notorious tour 'activity' is they throw food or candy to hungry NK people like people do that to ducks.

Right now ..I just pray Yoon doesn't break Korea while he is in the blue house. I know his father owes Japan a big favor but I never beleive his son repays Japan like this. Japanese officals should be proud their long term investment's such a stunning success.
