You don’t need to wish pawikirogi good luck. He’s an American. A delusional and angry Korean-American, but an American nonetheless. Disaster in Korea won’t hurt him personally, except that it might Hurt His Pride™.

pawikirogi:
oh, i get so tired hearing about how north korea is going to invade south korea. to what end would the north do such a thing? the day kji decides to attack the south would be first day of the end for north korea. how long would north korea soldiers fight when they come upon a land of plenty? how will they react when they see food, goods, and money everywhere? what will they do? any war that the north initiates would be over quickly and in the south korea’s favor.

Last Time I checked Kim Jung-Il had a nuclear bomb and a pretty good rage missile delivery system.

You may wanna double check that quick win by the South. More like a quick victory by Kim, or a never ending extortion scheme with the sword of nuke bomb hanging over your head as soon as US pulls out.

Good luck.

“how will they react when they see food, goods, and money everywhere? what will they do?” Umm, shoot everybody in sight and take it away, I would imagine.

well, the expat doesn’t seem to have a problem biting the hand that feeds him. don’t you a problem with that, professor?

I prefer to call it ‘biting the hand which occasionally feeds me’.

The thing is that many expats start biting that’s supposed to be feeding them when they stop getting fed, at least that’s my experience.

All work and no pay makes me an unhappy boy.

I find that the main benefit to this movie is to see you rednecks get in a huff.

Koreans often think that Americans joking about Bush IN FRONT OF FOREIGNERS is equal to hating the US. Koreans do bitch and joke about Korea (more than most I’d even say), but generally patriotism (or nationalism) overrides such ridicule when the foreigner is around.

This is the kind of thinking that the Dixie Chicks have never understood, from the time of their concert in England.

I’ll wager the American special effects crew laughed even more at the director’s last name.

Being in San Francisco and all.

Thus,in his own mind, Mr. Bong’s form of hate, anti-americanism, is justified.
