You are correct: anthropolgists, sociologists, and psychologists –after years of government funding have concluded this finding about narcissism in Korea.

As in the case of stem-cell Hwang of Korea, this information is privy only to us special scientists.

I suspect your impertinent questioning of Korea’s dynamic narcissism … is motivated by Canadian envy, eh!

Actually, during my years here I’ve always been told that Koreans are the most humble people on the planet. If you don’t believe me, just ask a Korean. He’ll tell you.

Can I get a copy of the stastical study that determined this?
I assume that all cultures in the world were studied for this
particular condition to determine that Korean culture is most prolific. It must have taken years of scientific research.

Kevin at the old IA sums up this corean guys logic. You see, he problally saw the origional skit and then it became his idea.

Makes sense to me. Don’t astronomical observations confirm that a massive black hole occupies the center of the galaxy?

Well, there ya go. Koreans were right all along.

Neither. Feel nothing at all, because not only does his protest lack merit, but the fact that his stupidity is being discussed by others will give him and his cause validation–at least in his own mind.

He is entirely irrelvant. But in his own mind, any publicity is probably good publicity. Thinking that he has already been deprived of millions in royalties for his original idea, he has nothing further to lose by embarrassing himself in public now. And if he can gain a bit of noteriety in the public’s eye–even for his baseless allegations–he has already won his battle.

Political Correctness eschews the idea that a whole culture can be pathological. We are now-a-days required to view all cultures as inherently equal (Not good, not bad … just different.)

But, here is the reality: Korean culture is the world’s most prolific narcissism factory: it produces the narcissistic personality disorder on a mass scale. The very source of your endless amusement with Koreans.

What is exhibited by this typical Korean is called “ideas of reference”. The Korean is the centre of the world. Korea is the “Hub of Asia”… and each Korean is de facto “the centre of the universe”. The Korean is not merely the centre of HIS world - as far as he can tell, he is the centre of THE world. This Archimedean delusion is one of the Korean’s most predominant and all-pervasive cognitive distortions.

The narcissistic Korean feels certain that he is the source of all events around him, the origin of all the emotions of his nearest or dearest, the fount of all knowledge, both the first and the final cause, the beginning as well as the end.

This Korean Cindy Sheehan standing before the US Embassy is understandable when a person realizes this poor man was socialized in Korea from birth.

The Korean derives his sense of being, his experience of his own existence, and his self-worth from the outside. He mines others for his self-esteem - adulation, attention, reflection, fear. Their reactions stoke his furnace. Absent self-esteem - the narcissist disintegrates and self-annihilates. When unnoticed, he feels empty and worthless. The Korean narcissist MUST delude himself into believing that he is persistently the focus and object of the attentions, intentions, plans, feelings, and stratagems of other people. The narcissist faces a stark choice - either be (or become) the permanent centre of the world, or cease to be altogether.

This Korean man before the US embassy is seeking validation for his very existence before his truest God: the US Embassy.

The constant obsession with one’s locus, with one’s centrality, with one’s position as a “hub” - leads to referential ideation (”ideas of reference”). This is the conviction that one is at the receiving end of other people’s behaviours, speech, and even thoughts. The person suffering from delusional ideas of reference is at an imaginary centre of constant attention.

Yes, pity him … but also wonder why you maintain a blog site.
