Ruminations in Korea

If Amaru steals this opportunity from Koreans, it will be similar to stealing the gold medal from the Koreans in the Ohno incident.

This is more proof of a grand conspiracy (besides the recent nine–hour delayed assasination attempt on Kim Jung Il) against Koreans by a jealous world.

Why must the world be so jealous and spiteful of Korea?

Reminds me of all the music ‘borrowed’ by Korean commercials, soap operas and others.

Way to go Baby VOX, I’m sure you’re feeling Tupak’s love right about now…

First of all, Koreans created the grand conspiracy to deceive themselves for things that they can’t accept.

For example, the Ohno incident. Yes, I can see how Koreans can be mad and such but, we sent our athletes over there to compete and abide by the authorities given to the judges. Misjudging happens and Koreans must understand that part of competition.

If Koreans don’t understand this fact, then Koreans can’t expect the world to understand all the misjudging that happened during the 2002 Worldcup. Was it Totti? He never fell on his own. He was tripped. (Korean media covered this up by not showing the incident from the front angle)

By the way, I think you are caught up in this false perception that world is jealous of Korea. Well, here’s a news for you. The world cares about Korea as much as Koreans care about Cambodia. You’re not jealous of Cambodians and the world is not jealous of Korea..

With the Baby Vox thing. What do you mean by stealing opportunities. Are you saying that using Tupac’s music is an opportunity? And how could Amaru be stealing the opportunity when they are in fact regaining their rights(from Tupac’s mother’s perspective) A true opportunity will come when musicians embrace true creativity and not just merely copying other people’s music. In this respect, Koreans are very far from giving the world anything worthwhile to listen because, no singer in Korea can separate themselves with glamour and art.
