I don't get why people leave mean messages on a video that middle school kids worked hard to make and an American uploaded.

[Nanix1991]

I've never seen any ppl from any country post this many videos about how great their nation is. Arrogant ppl... No nation, no matter how successful it was/has been ever did/have done it.

@Nanix1991 Actually, I am not Korean. I noticed that you haven't uploaded any videos. Did you make a youtube account just so you could post discouraging notes on videos made by strangers? That isn't very nice.

@giranful inform yourself better.

90% are given by japan? you mean the koreans buy the parts.

honda never taught the Koreans how to make cars, 10 Koreans did participate on a tour in a honda car fabric. the japs feared that the Koreans could build a car too, so no cameras or video cameras were allowed for Koreans. These 10 Koreans just saw how to make a car and memorized it, when they came back to korea they succeeded to build a car.

the japs never teached actively how to make cars.

@giranful "Korea has no foreign assets to make money to pay back"

"korea has no foreign assets to make money"

"korea has no foreign assets"

...

Samsung, LG, Hyundai, Kia, to name a few.

"foreign debt"

Japan, over 200% debt to GDP, while Korea is enjoying a mild recession to 33% debt to GDP.

I think you should get your facts first before you talk. No offense, just saying.

[midas2099]

@giranful I don't think so.

[giranful]

@SereneSmile1 Also, Korea is not in a healthy economy. Korean gvt is trying to make it look nice but the world know it'll soon be crushed. Korea has more than $400 billion foreign debt & this is increasing every yr. Korea owes Japan more than $20 billion trade debt plus all the interests of ODA funds.

But, Korea has no foreign assets to make money to pay back, plus 45% of Korea's GDP is bandaged by a debt from EU's banks. The size of Korean market is also very small so there is no way........

[giranful]

@SereneSmile1 No you are totally wrong. Korea never mentioned helps they received from other countries. Did they mention 90% of parts used in Sumsung phones are given by Japan? Did they mention Honda taught Koreans a skill how to make a car for the first time in your history? Did they mention Japan has been helping you poor dogs with more than $30 billion ODA fund since 1965 till now?

Without Japan's help, Korea is not even existing now. It'll be either a part of China or NK.

[SereneSmile1]

@NoNoSpice Uh, we do mention about how much help we got from other countries and that is well emphasized in Korean history textbooks. Who wouldn't be complaining about their loss and damages? Do you think anyone can remain silent about the massive loss and damages caused by war? Have some sympathy, the whole world doesn't revolve around you. Keep saying "Koreans are the most shameful Asian ever", because this will affect nothing on our economic growth, Korean pride, etc.

[NoNoSpice]

Koreans be proud of their achievement. But they never mention anything about how much help they got from other countries. Koreans complain so much about their loss and damage of themselves. However, they never describe how much they destroyed in Vietnam. Koreans are the most shameful Asian ever. Why don't accept your own fault? Korean war was nothing but self fucking civil war, which was started by Korean herself. Don't cry for the damage! Don't forget appreciating for the loss of UN!

[Nanix1991]

@hyun3421 You should be proud... but keep it for yourselves or ppl who are actually interested in it. Each time you see a Korean you hear facts about Samsung, Hyundai, about the miracle of the Han river,about TaeKwondo being the most popular, about your olympic gold medals etc.

It's worse than the communist propaganda in China and N.Korea
