remember..Korea, until recently, has been occupied by a foreign power for generations...so they feel isolated, "the hermit kingdom" in their thinking and circumspect in their actions and relations to other countries.....they are quite defensive and nationalistic about Korea's place in Asia and the world...justifiably so. Also think about the fact that many many of the products you enjoy today are not made in Japan or China, but Korea...from Samsung, LG, Hyundai, SSangyoung, Daiwoo, Posco, Lotte and dozens of other multinational companies...it is hard to list a set of companies from any other country in the world that have been so successful......in spite of the fact that the country was completely destitute in 1953....just 60 short years ago Korea was 2nd. last in world GDP. Today they  are between 8th. and 10th....an amazing achievement...made possible by being ruled by a military dictatorship that knew what it wanted and pushed the country in the right direction....the first democratic government was elected in the 80's..yet if you go there and look, i dare you to find a more modern, open and peaceful country anywhere...my hats off to them. I have nothing but respect for their achievements...and did i mention the women are beautiful.

where did u come from?

 i was born in Paradise...roamed the world for 40 years seeking fame and fortune...and now returned to die in Paradise......just the way God meant it to be.

on this forum everybody picks on everybody...except fash...she is too nice to pick on.....even though she lobs big old softballs continuously.....you just have to grit your teeth and take the strike........so no problems pick on Koreans all you wish...they are big enough to look after themselves.....and the women are cute there also

It is true that Korea can look after itself. Today, the soft power of Korea is ahead of Japan and China.



I haven't had to grit my teeth with a Fash post yet.

Hello mr. yellow fever!

In all fairness, Korea is not alone in doing that. Many countries(China included) exaggerate the innovations of their countrymen.

it is doubtless that korean did a great job with their innovation, but what i meant is that they have once asserted that some of the chinese valuable heritages and festivals should belong to korean such as Armillary sphere and duanwu festival

Chinese culture has borrowed a lot from India.

Chinese culture is completely borrowed from the west. Or are you sitting in front of some chinkie invention?
