  • Adore your videos and appreciate what u do. Yeah, I also have korean friends. Agree with you....

  • I live in america and everyone here treats me differently when they find out i listen to kpop, jpop and cpop. they think random stuff about me and end up not wanting anything to do with me really. but i will still openly say what music i listen to. i'm proud of it. if i like something from another country, i like it and i won't stop just for them. but recently i've been called an asian loving ginger which really irks me.... but oh well, i can't change the world

  • marry me! i love your way of thinking and your english too! you have such a fluency! ♥

  • I deeply agree! I'm puertorican and I love Japanese and Korean culture<3 I don't see what's the bad thing about liking other cultures, languages,etc. I'm learning japanese and I find it really fun :) I would love to learn korean, chinese, french,etc. but I can't handle everything at a time xD Anyways, centuries ago countries were united together. Why be racist now? We live in the same world, we should help each other not hate |: Sadly, some people don't think the same way.

  • I'm mixed Bangladeshi-Chinese. I used to hate it because I was out casted and called so many things whilst I grew up.

    I'm 17 and in college now. Everything's improved. People find it interesting how my grandma was chinese whilst everyone else was bangladeshi (I'm 1/4 chinese, 3/4 bangladeshi). My aunt married into a korean family just after I was born so i know korean. More than chinese which makes me sad. The only language i speak fluently is english...

    The hate's reduced but I still feel bad.

  • TONG HUA!!!!! XD

  • i love korean,japanese and chinese culture they are awesome nd im puertorrican.

  • I have srilankan ethnicity,and I was born in Italy where I used live 'till 1yr ago. When I finished school many companies took my cv from the teachers and called me for interviews, as I was one of the best students in the school. But everytime when I showed up they were like "oh..your cv says you're Italian" and I'm like "yes I am" and they go like "sorry, you're not the kind of Italian we're looking for" now I live in London, being it a multicultural city I finally feel accepted :)

  • I'm Mexican and I love J & K Pop!

    :)

  • im mixed so i get called lots of names. im mixed with black, white, philipino, and japanese. but since im darker and i love kpop (and all other asian music) i get called a dumb n word and wanna be asian o.o and the fact that basicly all my friends are asian makes my skin stand out more. so for a while i would hate who i was and want to change but im learning to accept myself^^ exept now people think im full asian just super dark (or a beach bunny T.T)

  • there shouldnt be any racism , i like the korean music cuz it sounds better that the japaneseand manderin alternative ...korean music is awesome super junior,shinee,2pm,boyfriend,an­d beast just sound good its not betrayal or spy work

  • I'm a white american living in Japan, and I've experienced no hate or anything here. Love this place! however being from Michigan (USA), i have known many of my friends who've experienced some Michigan Hate from those Ohio twats!! I'm half kidding, but half serious actually. My point is that even small differences piss of the small minded. ANyway, good video

  • I love all things Korean.

    All I watch are Korean drama/movies and listen to K-POP aaand learning Korean.

    And I'm black.

    You don't have to be from a certain culture to appreciate it and it's a little selfish to only think about you and your culture.

    =^_^=

  • @Negative500 That exact same thing happened to me too. I'm not Asian at all but I love K-Pop. My friends are always saying things like "You're Asian on the inside" It's like., no I'm not. I am who I am I just like K-Pop

  • Stereotypical meanies.  Don't mind them, haters gonna hate, right? Racism is a problem in our world and a lot of people are racist. For example, onl y a couple of days ago a person in my history class shared a project that was racist to me (Italy). I felt it was very unnessisary and that he shouldn't do that but he just laughed at me

  • i like korean, japanese, vietnamese and chinese culture and i'm from germany .. i love all asians ...

  • You basically said what I've been thinking for a long time now. I'm not Korean (I'm Filipino) and I love K-Pop. My friends make fun of me for it. It's pretty annoying. And one of my best friends listen to K-Pop too, and we're talking about it. And then one of my other friends were like "Oh god, they're even turning the whites asian." I just wanted to punch him in the face. Who said you need to be asian to listen to asian music. Just stop hating. :P

  • :) we can be friends silly :D introductions first HAI I'M ALEXX (yes with two x's :D)

  • <3

  • I agree (: you are the cutest thing!!!!!! -333

  • *facepalm*

  • Yup, Kept getting made fun of by people who I thought were my friends. Because Im short and Irish they kept calling me a leperchaun. It gets old. :T

  • Shhh chink.

  • nice RADWIMPS instrumental!

  • Uhm random question but where can I buy the thing you have around your passport? xD

  • Some of the thoughtful Japanese like Yoshi will always be warmly welcomed by most of the Koreans.

    Having said that, a sad fact is, that even if there is a Korean that does try to communicate and understand the Japanese point of the view, there still will be a major hatred and condescending view on that Korean individual and their affairs.

    A disturbing yet somewhat true story.

  • Well... I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU ! <3

  • Why can't we all get along? The past is the past. Let's move on and accept and love everyone. Eventually everyone can have an open mind.

  • if u are national japanese it means u cant return to USA for more than 3 months since japan doesnt allow the double nationality, right? ... and here in japan we really dont like korean people...there are people who study korean but when they have contact with korean people they start insulting japaneses for history, thats why jp ppl stop korean studies to study history in order to defend our country against koreans insults about history. i hate korea for various insults against me and japan

  • @chopin4ever I have a 2-year Visa so I can go back to the US until it expires. Anyways, you're being ridiculous with your hasty over-generalizations.1-Study shows that majority of the Japanese are either indifferent or friendly towards (South) Koreans; you are the minority so you do not represent the whole of Japan. 2-Not every Korean in Japan preach about "the history," therefore they do not represent the whole of Korea. 3-Notice that you're not so different from those "hateful" Koreans?

  • @chopin4ever @YoshiEatsWasabi 自分は2年有効のビザを持っているので期限が切れるまでアメリカ­に滞在可能です。とにかく本題に対してですが、あなたは何に対し­ても速断しすぎです。まず、国内・国外の複数の世論調査によると­日本人はのほとんどが韓国人に対して無関心か友好的な感情を持っ­ていることが分かっている。あなたは反韓の少数派なので日本全体­を代表するようなことを言わないでください。その次に、韓国人皆­が日本人に会うたびに「歴史」事を説教しません。なのであなたが­言う「説教する韓国人」は韓国人全員を代理しているわけではあり­ません。そして最後に、あなたの様な反韓な人間は反日の人間と大­差ないのです。五十歩百歩ですよ。気付いてますか?考え直してみ­てください。

    では失礼します。

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi what?説教? u mean 文句, right? obviously japanese is not your first language, so u werent raised here so how come u know u are the majority?.1.at university u need to choose a 2nd lang,korean is known as the easiest for jpnses for the grammar so they choose it, no for any interest on them.2-u re right not only history i got 2 guys who said they were happy for the earthquake and some of friends got this kinda guys.3-im human i answer hate with hate.

  • @chopin4ever あなたの英語読み辛いんで日本語で投稿させてもらいます。あなた­の英語の使い方だと文句ではなく説教の方に近いですよ。もう一回­言いますが、「国内・国外の世論調査によると」と言いました。O­K?

    まぁとにかく、本題に戻りますが。。。だからどうしたんですか?­簡単だから勉強する、はいだからどうした?一人二人印象的に悪い­韓国人に出会ってすぐ辞めちゃう人が悪いんじゃないんですかね?­すごく敏感なだけじゃないですか。それに韓国好きだから始める人­もいますよ、十分に。韓国に興味が無くて、簡単だからって選んだ­人が悪い。

    あなた本当に視野が狭いんですねぇ、もちろん人間的に糞な韓国人­もいれば逆に震災後ちゃんと心から復興支援を行った人もいますよ­。僕のボランティアのビデオ見て下さいよ、日本人も韓国人もイギ­リス人もアメリカ人も他国の人が集まって支援しにいったんですよ­。良い心を持った人間じゃないと行きませんよ(そうやって「文句­」を言うあなたこそボランティアしに行きましたか?)

    人間だからといって憎しみを憎しみで返すって言うのは本当に人間­として小さいですよ。

  • @chopin4ever Dude, just go back to your 2ch or AF website. and keep ranting your hatered and never realize how pathetic your life is. :) kthanksbye

    chopin4ever = a dude with a deep seated, inferiority complex.

    tsk.

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi and just to finish, japaneses generally are not interested in korea, we just react when they attack us with their hate ..japanese people who have to have contact with koreans (for example students of lang) they get these kinda bully from them,personally i just talked with random koreans when i was added on skype conversations and when they come to bully me in some of my broadcastings.Other japaneses dont feel hate or interest at all, if u like Kpop then enjoy

  • @chopin4ever もし日本人が韓国に興味が無かったら K-Pop や K-Drama とか売れませんよね?ちゃんと情報集収集できているんですか?そ­れとも2chに書いてある右翼情報を使っているんですか?

    僕も今独学で韓国語を勉強していますが一人じゃなかなか難しいの­で友達の韓国人やその人らの先輩らに教わってますよ。全然あなた­がいう「いじめ (bully)」なんかされていません。とっても優しいです。一­回僕の友達にあってみたらどうです?(笑)

    "Other Japaneses dont feel hate or interest at all, if u like Kpop then enjoy" -だったら最初っから反韓的なコメントしないでくださいよ。あな­たたちがネット上でやることが意味わからん。

    だいたいこの動画を作った理由は韓国と日本とのだけじゃなく、「­人間と人間の友好関係を良くしよう」という気持ちで作ったのにあ­なたの様な人が穢れたコメントを残すからいけないんですよ。あな­たこそ歴史を引きずっているのでは?

    一つだけの地球なのにこうやって対立する人間が生息していると悲­しくなります。

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi お前さあ 偉そうだけど何年日本にいるんだよw

    こいつには理解不能だろ 韓国かアメリカかどっかにいつづければ

    例えばその意見でマツコの動画の反韓コメの中耐えられるの君?

    ここにくるなとか何とかワメクナヨ きたくてきてんじゃねーから

  • @omaeafodarodotcom はーい、ゲリラ隊員キターーー。(アカウント隠してコメントして­くるやつのことね。)

    「きたくてきてんじゃねーから」

    気になって見たくなったからきたんでしょ?(爆笑)

    だれも無理やり見させてないし。

    勝手に来て、勝手にワメイテンノソッチダロ。ワラ

    「例えばその意見でマツコの動画の反韓コメの中耐えられるの君?­」

    そりゃーゴキウヨさん達にビシバシ言われるわ。でもね、いくらゴ­キウヨさん達と抗議しても意味ないの。視野の狭い人間は融通の利­かない人だから。だからあえてそういう動画にコメントを載せませ­ん。

    じゃぁねー。

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi 우앙~~~!!! Yoshi 오빠 짱인듯~~!!! ^.^bb 난 일본 사람들 진짜 좋아해요~~!! :D I'm a korean and majority of the students here really love Japanese people, (we also collected money from each students to help Japan during the flood )

    Oh and don't be bothered by haters out there :) Although you can't escape them...they're everywhere!! like swine flu...or AIDS? O.O

  • @chopin4ever WTF????!!!! Educate yourself before speaking D< Our history teacher is a person who lived in Japan and studied their culture...and he never insulted any of you "japanese" and really! you should stop being childish =.='' Neither of my friends and people i know have ever insulted or talked bad about Japan. Your just a narrow minded selfish person who never learns to embrace society and the people around you.

    Oh and FYI it's ridiculous to change history and make up stories~! D<

  • Good point my friend!

  • أعجبني الفيديو ^_^

    I like the video a lot, it's shows the mature side of you, in the end people shouldn't generalize, stereotype or be very quick to judge and assume nonsense

    thanks for making it this video

    I am also not Korean but I love Super Junior and like to listen to KPOP :)

  • If you're a disgrace, I am more of a disgrace LOL

    I'm Japanese girl who can speak fluent Japanese but I HATE HATE HATE KANJI AND I DECIDED I CANT READ THEM AND REFUSE TO LEARN THEM

    because I grew up in the west / south non-asian country :D

    Disgrace ftw <3

  • i realized u listen to RADWIMPS in the beginning! :) <3 love them~ great band

  • why do you look extra attractive in this vid??

  • haahaaaa wow cutting an anthem short is so horrible.

  • Yoshi keep up the great work! here's a Brief Summary.

    Most of these E-trolls on the Youtube are KNOWN to be from ORGANIZED group secretly supported by Uyoku Right wing group of Japan with inferiority complex and most majority are mainly off "2Ch" (There are even a high number of kids that live in the USA and still does this kind of stuff. kind ridiculous) and there are our good-old Taiwanese folks that want to enslave themselves to Japanese culture thus blind-mindedly bashing on K-culture.

  • ummmm black people don't only listen to rap music idiot... they invented hip hop, blues, r&b,jazz, country and rock music sound a little ignorant there buddy

  • i live in the us, my schools pretty diverse

    asian jokes seem to be the trend right now

    and you know what everyone says,

    'its no big deal, they're just trying to be funny, brush it off, what's your problem its just a joke'

    i try, i really do, b/c i KNOW these kids (even my friends) are really just too immature than anything.

    telling them off does nothing, just smile and laugh

    cos its all you can do. but its sad,

    not b/c theyre being racist but b/c they take being racist so lightly

  • aMEN...

  • you need to do videos on how to speak japanese.(im saying i need help) im in japanese 1 in america and i dont hate korea

  • I almost i cry... thanks for this video, you're a big person, i hope can find more people as you.

  • Lol I've had someone call me a 在日Chinese person. Why? Because he didn't like my opinion on some political issue. People resort to that stuff as a desperate tactic. Don't let it bother you, Yoshi!

    Btw I'm proud of you-you went from being in my childhood videogames working with Mario to overthrow Bowser, to becoming a human vlogger on YouTube. So let the haters chew on that! :)

  • I'm really thankful for people like you in this world! My best friend is Korean, my boyfriend is Japanese, I have lots of Chinese, European, and South American friends, and I'm American...I mean...our generation really shouldn't be messing with all this racism crap..the past is the past...none of us fought any wars...and after all the most important thing is who a person is on the INSIDE (duh) not what they look like...

  • I wish all people think like you !!

    racism is so 16th century !! why people practice it till now !!

  • (Y) go korea

  • この人を聞かないでヨシさん。if you were campainging for prime minister or something I'd vote for you. right on! >:D

  • what the. omg you look like my comrade in CAT officers... o.o okaaaay... awkward... lol :))

  • Comment removed

  • I absolutely love Korean culture and their music, and I'm Chinese. Honestly, I prefer Korean music, movies, and TV shows over Chinese ones.

  • Yeah it's okay, I get called an "Oreo" all the time. I still listen to Rap, Hip-hop and enjoy it but I'm just more crazy for Rock music, I'm not that crazy for k-pop but I really do love it. I'm not loud or ghetto and I'm always happy and smiling, well not always but you know. Anywayssssss, people are always gonna be racist and it still exist today in FREAKING 2012! but i just learn to ignore these people. pshh who needs them? I love living my life with my Love ones. Peace <3

  • LOL!!!!! at 0:11 Hes says "If you still manage to take offense or feel threatened that you are being brainwashed then you may have an issue" hahahahaha LOL xD i never laugh so hard

  • I just Love you I really DO

  • Wow! Just because you are Japanese you cannot like Korean stuff and appreciate the culture? That's stupid! I've always been called an "oreo" and "coconut" because I'm not ghetto and I refuse to be a stereotype. What can you do though? It's life.

  • White kids can experience discrimination. I was made fun of because of the way I speak my language, because I write Kanji in my notes and listen to Asian music.

    Once I asked a Japanese boy if we could become friends and he refused =( . I can't judge everybody basing only on a boy but now I don't know how to behave towards the Japanese and what to say, including you Yoshi (and I don't even know you), maybe it's no sence but that time his rejection made me sad and I felt really bad.

  • Being a white kid, we don't experience must racism, but we are called racists pretty often, though. Especially I'm from Finland and ppl tend to say finnish are racists, but it's not that simple. There are only about 6 million ppl in Finland. Finnish aren't still not that used to other cultures that come outside of Finland, ppl are sometimes scared of something they don't know much about...in my opinion. But some ppl are just mean to almost everyone and that sucks too...and stereotypes

  • EXACTLY!! I'm chinese and i like korean culture! and my friends indian and she likes it

  • WELL said Im black and veitnimese who listens in k-pop and I watch Japan dramas...Im told all the time im not black enough but because Of my skin color Im not "asian" enough...sounds pretty stupid to me

  • @dkw08 You're AWESOME!!!! that's what you are xD

  • Good said.

  • totally agree, I live in the UAE and I muslim and many forigners treats badly because the way i dress, i'm not mad but sad cuz i have never treated anybody depanding on their look our raise, but after they know me better some of them change and some way better than none ^-^ luv ur channel and I'm learning Japanese and it's fun

  • AWHHHHH!!!

    YOU ARE SOOOO SWEEET!! <3

    even i am fed up of everyone hating on me cause i like one korean group (well, i'd use the word 'obsessed') and then they call me "chinese" AND I BLOW UP!! like THERE IS A BIG DIFFERENCE OPEN YOUR EYES AND SEE IT!

    (btw, i'm not Chinese or Japanese.... i live in UAE,sharjah and i'm muslim)

  • common sense isn't common

  • I'm Mexican and am way darker than my family and also have a bump in my nose that they say makes me look Hindu, Indian, Native American, and whatever else. They give me Indian names and I laugh along, but it hurts getting racism from my own family.

  • I like human beings, PERIOD.

  • I like Korea and japan. But often I get laughed at by my family. They say your a Indian (aka native American) where's your pride!! Being full blooded native in today's society is like having an identity crisis. Which do you choose? Life of marrying another native and living the traditional way or dump it behind you?Help!!!

  • I love everything about Japan. When I started learning the language almost 5 years ago, my family got mad, because they thought I was going o become more Japanese and forget about my heritage. That is completely false. I acknowledge my Chamorro traditions, and I'm even trying to learn Chamorro language. I also love kpop ( ukiss, bigbang, etc.) and cpop(fahrenheit) and because of that, I'm called an 'Asian wannabe' at school. I DONT EVEN ACT/LOOK ASIAN -___- ugh, I hate it.

  • People at think I'm racist just because I only have k-pop, j-pop and filipino music on my ipod... It's just the style of music I prefer to put on my ipod and listen to most of the time; I still listen to some american and aus music though

  • What brand is your shirt? Looks so cool~ :]

  • what about the 2002 world cup soccer kick ? why don't you also mention about three korean player taking elbow in the face by each different italian players before that incident you gatta meantion whole story  buddy lol

  • I'm Haitian and whenever I listen to K-pop and J-pop, I get teased and made fun of. My sister complains how Asian have no butt or breast when they are Haitians like that. One time I was called a disgrace for liking thing relating to Asians instead of my culture. I'd like to travel to Japan some day though.

  • bad sportsmanship?? IS THIS KID REALLY  SERIOUS???the problem is japanese don't learn the their past history wrong doings thats where the problem between korea and japan excist many japanese thinks just because they gat nuked by usa their terrble past is all gone think about it buddy

  • about what you said, I am arab muslim and almost face that a lot in internet but in real life I only face problems that I am native where I live and they always judge me if I didn't speak their accent or make fun of me if I did mistake with spelling .. so wherever I go there is a problem lol

  • I am an Arab and I like Kpop and I like your videos, actually I like all cultures and languages sure Japanese one of them. Just keep doing what you like and don't care about others *be happy* :D

  • hey there!)) I'm not japanese or korean, but I also LOVE KPOP A LOT!!! And there are lot's of fans of kpop around the world, including here,Japan!! Even Golden Disk Ceremony is gonna be in Osaka this next year! How awesome is that?! :D And I have plenlty of korean and japanese friends who get along very well))I'm living in Japan right now, and yes,there are many things that caused me lots of stress... but it's ok, because there are always nice people too!!So stay strong everyone,u're not alone!

  • I'm Habesha and i have friends who are from different countries and have different religions and we get along. and i listen to jrock (visual kei, my favorite), kpop, jpop, and European techno and Ethiopian music and Mezmur. racism is for ignorant trolls who need to be quiet and throw away those nasty comments. we are one people, one race. the HUMAN race. peace.

  • this vid is cool, im canadian chinese student also living in japan. however i have seen racism but its nice to see people take a stand! nice on volunteering

  • ikr. i listen to japanese and korean music :) <3

  • Koreans & Japanese should get along...in fact the whole world should get along ^_^

  • i have German blood in me and listening to a lot of German rock and techno and people call me a Nazi. i also have asian friends and they are nice but i also have a friend who calls japanese people "japs" and chinese people "chinks." it really irritates the fuck out of me.

  • this is a serious talk but i always smile seeing you, i love japanese and south korea culture with all my heart♥ and im from southamerica, also watch u.s.a movies and i like english as a language a lot, im still learning, also i learn japanese, but i speak spanish.

    come one people this planet has many beautiful different cultures to admire, being different is not being worst or better just different. ^_^

  • i'm jamaican and like kpop and people act like i don't even like my own race

  • Comment removed

  • @fuckkorea2012 are you threatening me? I can't even see your account, talk about "surprise attack"... You're probably one of those losers of life, a hikikomori, who don't have any friends besides the "internet." Isn't that why you're posting dumb shit on Korea-related videos? Well congrats, you just got attention.

    脅してんの?アカウントも見えへんし、まさに「奇襲」やな。。ど­うせアレやろ、ヒキコモリっちゅう社会のゴミ?「インターネット­君」以外友達おれへんから韓国関連動画にこういうアホらしい書き­込みしてるんやろ?おめでとう、注目の的になりましたよ。

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi omg your totally from Osaka aren't you!!??

  • @fuckkorea2012 so i heard you like korea...

  • @fuckkorea2012

    lovely username

    really...

    ...

  • @fuckkorea2012 wow are u serious just because he is japanese and he likes korean music ur going to say the so what now are u going to tell me to watch my back because im American and i LOVE LOVE LOVE Korean and Japanese music some of my favorite music groups are ( korean ) 2ne1 , Girls Generation , miss A , Big Bang , Hyuna and Super Junior ( Japanese ) LM.C , SuG , Miyavi , An Cafe , Girugamesh , and The Gazette <3

  • People call me chinese because I like Japan and Korea. Im 100% Norwegian.

    ?! >_<

  • I know it's kinda off topic but I love the song at 2:30

    ~Guang liang- tong hua~

    I cry every time I watch the video!! :(

    Anyway, I agree! I love Korean, Chinese and Japanese music and I’m British!!! :)

  • I'm Japanese and I've got to agree. Xenophobia there has got to stop. 

  • Your a good person and you're absolutely right once my friends got into my phone and saw all my Korean music and asked me what was wrong with me...I'm African American so all my friends find it really strange I don't listen to rap or hip hop

  • i am half japanese!

  • @10382913 @hoya1della Please do a favor for the community and shut the fuck up. You just defeated the purpose of this video. This video was specifically made so that people would realize that each country has good people and bad people. Not all people are good but neither are they all bad.

    You're no different from those "Japanese trolls" that you speak of. You're a prime example of "bad."

  • fucking Japanese people slaughtered 20 million innocent people but then why Japanese always talk bad things and blame on other countries??? WTF?? This race is evil. period !

  • @hoya1della clearly someone's mad... their history does not make ALL Japanese people "evil"... I'm from Hong Kong and they killed and tortured soldiers and blew up hospitals during the war but I know that's in the past and that doesn't mean all Japanese people are killers.. I think you need to move on and stop being such an ignorant douche.

  • @hoya1della Could you just clam up~! =.='' Seriously.... stop making the country sound bad D< You should do something profitable If you've got that much time sitting infront of the stupid screen posting ridiculous comments =.=''

    I'm not a japanese but....really this crap should stop

  • Hmm... I used to be friends with these two Mexican girls and I liked to listen to Mexican music and study on Mexican things...except last year one of them told me to get out of the little Mexican make believe world and that I would never be Mexican not even in a dream. What was really embarrassing was this year I really trusted them and one of them their brother invited my brothers and my brothers asked if I wanted to go too but I was too shy. The next day my brothers told me that both of the M

  • @koreanjapanesegirl so sad those girls said that to you :/

    I have very good Asian friends and I love that they wanna learn about my country so if you ever want a true good Mexican friend just call me :D

  • @iluvyoubaby1 thnx alot :) i also have a japanese/mexicanm cousin but he never makes fun of me

  • so true man

    im black and i watch and listen to korean dramas and music and people think im less black cuz of that.. :(

  • I jsut wanted to say that at the begining of the school year (September) I went on a reliefe trip to Sendai for two weeks, what I experienced there convinced me to return to Japan this coming year. Even though I did experience some hate while I was there (I'm a ginger so I really stand out!) I hope that one day there will be more tolerance in both cultures. (I love Kpop!)

  • well you are lucky to be japanese ^_^ first and second yeah im an muslim arab and i went to many places like canada and austria and whenever people see me wearing veil they'ld be like woah a muslim she is about to explode terrorisim and they would look at me in really weird and scary looks they wouldnt even help me in a shop or supermarket *sigh* IT IS RIDICULOUS !! and now my parents dont really encorage me to get the scholarship to japan because people may treat me wierdly cause im muslim !!!

  • @nooah28 I do not wish to sound like an asshole, but if may be good for you not to visit Japan. Japanese people are very sentimental and they're extremely "alert" of anything that is non-Japanese (because 99% of Japan's population is ethnically Japanese). They might be a little afraid, but that's not the reason. Because people here might treat you so differently, you're going to build up so much stress and you might not be able to bear it.

  • @nooah28 Although I am Japanese, because I "look" Korean from time-to-time I get nasty looks. And because I was raised in the states, I'm used to strangers being friendly to each other. But in Japan, it's considered weird for strangers to suddenly start talking to them. So even I am stressed out with Japan's environment. So my main point: if you can handle stress, then it's alright for you to come. But if you get ill from stress, I advise you to look for more "friendly" countries.

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi i hope ill be able to overcome it cause seriously im dieing to go to japan so fighting !! ^_^

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi dude try living in korea and forget to bow to people older than you trust me you will get slap HARD , i mean i am used to england and all the nice old folks in Bath(name of town) but when i moved back to korea i got more hell from both my sisters who expect me to bow not just them every single being in korea will either hit or glare at you for not bowing

    just pointing it out ,cheers bro

  • @spikmarne are you one of those inferiority tainted 2ch kid a.k.a a 'desperate' japanese troll? keep up with that wishfull blathering about things that are NOT EVEN TRUE. Kids like you are giving Japan an impression that Japan is the master of fabricated history, culture, etc. without ethic values. Singapore supports Korea.

  • @Awesomecheeseism dude make peace bro just pointing it out , i am not in anyway trolling anyone but seriously its true ,experience man

  • @nooah28 P.S. I want to make sure that I am NOT anti-Muslim. I respect all religion, race, ethnicity, culture, language, etc. I'm just saying all these things because I don't want people to feel stressed out when they come to Japan.

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi loool no i dont think your anit-muslim and hmm so i need to get prepared mentally before visiting japan but i think ill get used to it after 2 months cause probebly im gonna stay 3-4 years , and yup im used to talk to strangers so i should stop that btw thnx !!!

  • @nooah28 . you went to the wrong city in canada, go to toronto. You fit right in, many muslims in toronto.

  • @kanadajin3 well you may be right cause i went to kingston

  • @nooah28 i feel like everyone should be treated with respect no matter who you are. and i wish you a very safe and happy 2012 :)

  • @wwedivahardygirl thank you sweetie and yes people should be seen more than a religion and race

  • I love koreans, i am japanese as well but only half. i love kpop and my friend who is also half japanese gets mad at me because i dnt like Jpop as much as Kpop. and haters really? hes just trying to make a point.

  • Btw - Yoshi, bad sportsmanship? Please, I've seen Japanese players have just as bad sportmanship. You can't pinpoint that Korean soccer player in the 2002 world cup and say that KOREANS have bad sportmanship. You want to say that Kim Yuna had badsportsmanship in beating Mao Asada at the 2010 olympics?

  • @kizuo39571 *sigh* Look, I don't believe in those racist internet trolls. BUT you can ask non-Japanese people about Koreans and bad sportsmanship (especially soccer and baseball... WBC, after winning the semis players planted a South Korean flag on US soil... remember that?), that is why I only mentioned soccer and baseball.

  • @kizuo39571 It's really amazing how you've manged to automatically link ice-skating when I said "bad sportsmanship." Do you really think I'm stupid enough to believe that somehow Kim Yuna had pulled some unsportsmanship like conduct? No, of course not. She wins competitions because of her talent and amazing sportsmanship, what else would? I really think she's a wonderful person. So please, take a chill pill or I'll have to call the fire department because there's a "fired up" person.

    

  • @kizuo39571 One more thing, did you just miss the whole point of this video? It was made to promote anti-racism, not for sentimental people like yourself to nit-pick on every little detail. You're no different from Japanese internet trolls, really. End of discussion, have good day! :)

  • It's the Japanese right-wingers who spend A LOT of their time on the Internet in searching of ways to make Koreans look bad. Believe it or not, it's true! Everywhere I go in search of anything Korean on Youtube, I see Japanese people posting ridiculous things on Korea. Literally, anything to defame Korean culture. Do they realize that they colonized Korea for years like the Germans did to the Jews? I am not anti-Japanese but these right wingers are pathetic.

  • Well.. Im black but i mainly hang out with white and asian people and am learning japanese and people HATE that. But i think its funny cause my friends always get super pissed off. And I'm used to it by now so it doesn't affect me. And i just go about my merry way and just keep loving the Japanese culture and YEAH! :D

  • @pandabutta Are you one those black people who isolate themselves from their own kind? If you are, you shouldn't do that. If you're not COOL BEANS :D

    It's great that you have an open mind too!!

  • @101paramoreluver Haha no I'm not. I have plenty of black friends, just like how i have plenty of mexican, white, and asian friends. People think Im weird at first but they see im funny as hell and we're all cool with each other haha.

  • i am a americanized japanese living in japan, and i love kpop. that is my #1 to go to music. but my family and friends think i am like a anti-japanese(...wtf right?) and start insulting korea. i really hate that japan vs korea thing. they just really need to forget the past and get along. im actually glad kpop is popular in japan because that creates another gateway for the 2 countries to get along.

  • @SuperMiwok just ignore lumpfish99. Have you been to his channel? Complete racist. Drives me crazy how many racist people comment on anti-racism videos. O_o

  • i'm japanese

    my boyfriend is korean

    i like korean and chine music

    my friends: oh damn keiko you should listen more japanese music...you should be proud of your culture....you should date a japanese guy.

    i love my friends but sometimes they act like stupits

  • Where'd you get the instrumental of Oshakashama? o_O

  • I love Japan so much!!! But i love USA more i wouldn't want to live any where else. :)

  • @SuperMiwok the usa? you must be insane....its a facist police state which is on the verge of complete collapse.....dont you watch the news?

  • @lumpfish99 Well i live in the usa. Its not that bad. As long as you dont do anything bad. lol

  • @SuperMiwok it may not be that bad yet but the current trend is leading to complete facism...especially the recent bill making all us citizens prone to arrest indefinately on suspicion of terrorism...crazy.

  • @lumpfish99 Yea, i hate that about my country. Alot of ignorance.

  • u are sooooo cute! -^.^-

    sorry this comment doesnt relate to the video

    ^.^"

  • I'm Japanese and just because I moved to Japan from the States, Kids picked on me throughout elementary school because they considered me as a foreigner.

    Well now I'm in high school and I'm ok about Japan, but if you are a foreigner and if your moving to Japan, I recommend you international schools. By the way honestly Japanese music sucks. I think K-pop is 100 times better.

  • Agreed! Im Chinese and I listen to Kpop! And just basically love Koreans, there's nothing wrong with it x

  • I have to agree with you, every word you said is so true >_> / btw, where did you get that instrumental version of radwimps? >: I've been searching for a good instrum,ental like for ever >->

  • I went to a predominately non-white school where I was often the only white person in class and occasionally people would make fun of the fact that I was white. I thought that this was ridiculous, because they mostly thought they were joking. It was also hard getting good grades because people would make fun of you then too.

  • Well, let's just I'm a geek who loves Tokusatsu series, bet you kinda know about that... or not.. And they called me childish for that.. I mean come' on! There tonnes of other Otaku exist to buy eroge, and I can't watch Tokusatsu genre series??! Is this considered racism? =(

  • @gideoncyclone03 Nah, that's hobby discrimination.

  • I just don't get it. In the past racism has occurred and where has it gotten us. Slaughter of people because of their race, religion, etc. Degrading people for fun or just because a person thinks 'it's ok to'. You would think that people would learn from the past. In reality it's just a form of petty bullying. In the inside we are all the same, people need to deal with their fears/prejudice and get over it. There are over 6 billion people in the world of course we're all going to be different.

  • @silentangel03 It's just a sad world. And of course, not everyone's going to conform to not hating on someone's race, ethics, culture and etc. but it'd be nice if one less person is bullied everyday. Oh btw, we have over 7 billion people on this planet now.

  • @YoshiEatsWasabi You're defiantly right there! Oh crap i stand corrected then! And to think i took geography only 3 years ago. I fail XD But i would just like to thank you for standing up to racism, by sharing it with people i hope you have managed to change at least one person's perception! Conquer racism one person and video at a time! Yay!

  • I am an adopted Korean American. I currently live in a small town in Maine. The majority of the school is white (no seriously, I'm the only person of an entire different race.). I've been pushed into mud puddles and called a dirty Asian, shoved into lockers, and made fun of because I wanted to know about Korea.

    Don't be racist. Just love one another like your brothers and sisters.

    Oh, and the Asian girl gets the majority of her homeroom to become otakus and help kill racism.

  • Imma Saudi Arabian girl, and I love Asian cultures! Japanese, Korean, Chinese.. etc. ♥

    これビデオは本当にすごいです。^^

  • Dude.. I LOVE YOU ! Like seriously! I think racism is just a freakin stupid thing! We ALL were born in the same world, on the same earth, breathing the same air. We all love, we all hate, we all are humans! It's just.. Sometimes, Our skin is different, our birth place is different, our religion is different, our language is different etc. However, according to those differences, it doesn't mean that we are other creatures, or aliens!

    Imma Saudi Arabian girl, and I love Asian cultures! Japanese,

  • I got told im a disgrace to mexicans because I date outside my race and because I dont speak fluent spanish but I grew up in a place where it was not necessary.

  • Growing up in the D.C. Metro area, there is a lot of cultural diversity. I learned to be respectful towards others, their traditions, ideals, etc. I, myself, have multiple ethnicities within my family background, it'd be a shame to be close minded and show intense dislike or hate towards any culture. Every culture has their up and down side. I just want to admire the beautiful sides of each culture because their are just as many good points as their are bad points.

  • I'm American and I like Korean culture...soo I'm a spy? Darn, I thought I was just a college student. If I'm gonna be a spy I want a pay check!! -_-
