One of the criminals said he started to hate the owner of the resturant he worked in in Korea and decided to kill the two children.
However when he went into the building they weren't there blah blah blah...
The owner of the restaurant said in response to this that he had never abused the man.

Cambodian Hostage Takes Out For Revenge Against Koreans

It has been learned that the mastermind behind Thursday��s hostage drama at an international school in Cambodia planned the scheme to take revenge against his Korean employer, who had assaulted him.

A senior police official in Siem Reap, Cambodia said Friday that the mastermind, a man in his early 20s, planned the crime to enact revenge on a Korean who had employed him to drive his two children to school. The man claimed his employer had assaulted him.

According to the official, the perpetrator testified that the Korean had recently gotten angry with him and slapped him in the face, after which he quit and returned to his hometown. Everyday, the man thought of taking revenge against Koreans. He purchased a gun and proposed to three of his hometown friends that they storm the international school that was attended by the children of foreigners and rich Cambodians to extort money. On the day of the crime, they went to the school to find and kill his Korean employers�� two children, but when they couldn��t find them, their original plan went up in smoke.
The Cambodian government, however, is investigating whether the perpetrators committed the act for political reasons or to hurt Cambodia��s multi-million dollar a year tourist industry. Thursday��s hostage drama, which took place in an international school in the north of Cambodia, ended after six hours, but not before a Canadian toddler was shot dead.

That's true up to a certain age. My favourite old Koreans are the ones who have been through the war and the others that grew up during the Japanese occupation beforehand. Not surprisingly they don't hate the Japanese as much in general, and when they do it's because of something that personally happened to them as opposed to what they read. Don't forget that those people have been through hell too.
1950s-born ajosshis are generally (that's right, not all) the worst as they got to grow up during a dictatorship but still like to pretend that the education they received was as good as any you can get now.
