Actually I posted my article first as a reply to one of the topics below. But then I thought I might post it as an independent topic of my own as well.
--------------------------

I can see some of Westerners here eager to bash Korean demonstrators or totally ignorant (or more likely, indifferent) why they're out on the street. I say you folks are missing the point here.

S Korea is already importing loads of FOREIGN beef, for example, from Australia. It it were a xenophobic, 'made-in-Korea-or-nothing' sort of issue, then Koreans should've protested against Australian beef as well. But they aren't.

Then is it another resurrection of anti-American movement like back in 2002? Then Koreans should be demonstrating in front of U.S. Embassy as they did 6 years ago, burning the Star Spangled Banner. Yet, this time, people are pretty much pissed at President Lee, not the Americans.

Then why is it an "Anti-US Beef" demonstration? "US Beef" itself is a misleading blanket term, missing small details that Koreans are focusing on. One of the focal points among Koreans now is the speculation of 'mad-cow' disease. Is the fear exaggerated? Of course it is. Is it complete nonsense? Well, not if you love beef bone soup/stew like Koreans do.

Hundred thousands of Americans wolf down American beef everyday, but they rarely touch bones or intestines. Few exception would be bone pieces in BBQ ribs or T-bone steak. Never heard of Americans going after beef bone marrow, have you? OTOH, Koreans do, if you've been paying attention.

Scientists (that being American and British included) say the substance suspected of causing mad-cow disease are concentrated in certain parts of a cow. American consumers don't need to give a crap about what these parts are, as they usually consume nice juicy flesh only, except for veggans. But these parts, including spine and intestines, are among the 'consumable' parts of a cow in Korean diet, hence causing different rate of exposure to the suspected substance from their American conterparts. Is it proven that the substance surely causes 'human mad-cow disease'? The answer from the scientists so far is 'we don't know for 100% certain.' Then why would you volunteer for lab rats?

Then there comes regulatory issue. It is widely believed in Korea that to-be-imported U.S. beef is of lower grade than that of domestic U.S. market. If all beef were the same, why do Americans have 'grade' on beef and bother to look for 'organic beef'? Furthermore, there's the FDA regulation with regards to the quality control of beef in domestic U.S. market.

The term that S. Korean government signed on regarding beef imports contains loosened regulation on the quality control, almost irresponsible compared to FDA standards and too loosened to give American exporters an ecstasy. Well, exporters are just merchants, so no blame on them. Why is there a regulatory body for food (in both countries) in the first place? So the blame is on S Korean government not doing their job well.

You folks are missing the point that even those protesting on the street at the center of the city are willing to consume the same, clean, guaranteed grade of U.S. beef that is being consumed firsthand in American market. What they don't like is, though, that S Korean government did a lousy job in maintaining control and regulation on what to import and what to block, henceforth exposing Korean consumers to the reverse selection in which good U.S. beef and contaminated U.S. beef are mixed altogether somewhere in the chain of supply.

In this process, in addition, suspected dishonesty of wholesalers and retailers certainly make their contribution. Koreans have experienced similar cases of food contamination several times in other types of food before, so the same conjecture applies to U.S. beef as well.

And there's the issue of secondary product - such as condiments with ground beef, etc. - that occupies large portion of Korean consumers' fear. There's no way companies would make these products with top-grade sirloin. Then it means lowest and cheapest grades of beef being used, probably unworthy of any other commercial potential and possibly unwanted but regulated in American market. Now that S Korean government voluntarily obliterated regulations, why not 'recycle' some of these beef parts by exporting it to Korean companies? Hell, I would if I were an exporter.

Thus, the blame is on S Korean government again, who'd better regulate exporters and importers, wholesalers and retailers, as well as food manufacturers who might have certain degree of 'moral hazard.' But to Koreans' opinion, it looks as if the government is giving up being accountable, from the top down. And that's what pisses them off.

I'm not going to claim within my article that S Korea is xenophobia-free society or there is no faction at all dwelling on and provoking anti-Americanism. But this particular issue of beef import has nothing to do with xenophobia, and the anger is not directed towards the US but to the S Korean government. Stop wheezing, drop your Orientalism if any, look deeper. It's a matter of self-preservation for S Korean consumers.

Your article is an interesting study in ignorance. It doesn't take much research to establish that spine and intestines and all the potentially infectious parts of the cow are banned from entering the food chain in the US and almost everywhere else in the world. These parts are removed and destroyed at the slaughterhouse and will never be exported. If it's still getting into the Korean food chain then that's worrying and makes me not want to eat Korean meat.

In any case there hasn't been a single case of BSE in the USA since 2006 so your chances of catching BSE from US beef are 0.

If that's the case, then every time Koreans go out for beef bone soup, they can go to a restaurant that serves Korean beef. Problem solved.

Oh wait, I forgot. American are going to go around with guns and force Koreans to chew on cow spine and love it.

Your article is well written and presented. However, it does not hold water and has many flaws. Americans that eat beef are eating the same beef that will be exported to Korea. The mass hysteria that Korea is demonstrating does nothing to assuage our opinions on Korean society in general. If you are speaking of commercial beef. That is the beef used in soups, stews and other food products. Every country uses commercial beef for those purposes. Now if you are talking about high quality bone-in beef, rest assured, it is high quality, even if it is 40 months old, it will be nice and tasty and not tinted. So Sleep well and tell your children that "crazy cow" will not be a problem because you have checked the statistics. You did check the statistics, right? If you haven't checked the statistics of how many Americans have caught "crazy cow" disease, then you should.

True. Then you should also know that the risk of having the substance ('Prion') correlates with a cow's age, and the absolute majority of beef supplied to the US market is no older than 24 months, while the latest term of trade did not state such limitation. Why the loophole? Why take 2~3% of risk while it's easily avoidable? That's what Korean government missed/yielded, and Korean people didn't like it.
The point is, as I've stated before, the beef to-be-supplied to Korean market do not perfectly match with what is being sold in the US, thanks to the loophole. Now I'm saying this again, those demonstrators are willing to accept US beef if the loophole is plugged and a better regulation takes place.

Yeah, right. And Koreans haven't had mad-cow problems so far when Korean and Australian beef were in circulation. (don't know if the problem occurred but concealed and silenced) It will still be OK if properly regulated US beef come over and join the circulation.
But as I said, there's a loophole in regulation which hasn't been plugged, and consumers suspect that wholesalers and/or retailers would lie about it when they actually sell unregulated risky parts. Then again, even if that happens, perpetrators would be Korean merchants and that's a domestic issue.
But all the fuss could be easily avoidable if the government blocks suspicious shipments at the customs and let the only safer beef in. That's their job, but they're not doing it properly, and people got angry. So it's a demonstration against their own government, and it's natural to have one like they do in France, Germany, UK and US for any social issue.

I do not wish to manage or affect or assuage your opinion or perception on Korea, nor do I wish to 'save face' for Korea or its general public even if the intention of my article appears to be so. I'm done with that long time ago. Yet I saw some responses to the demonstration on this board, which I do not agree with, and thought I might shed different light on the subject.
And yes, I know of the clean bill of health you suggested me to look up. Indeed I mentioned and agreed on the very fact from my first response. Yet, I do not quite see the legitimacy of your arguement that 'Koreans will get the same beef as their US counterpart,' not that I approve of any kind of 'conspiracy theory'/bollocks that might be going around younger generation of Koreans. The thought that 'there will be a mismatch' itself could be nothing more than a suspicion, I admit, lacking presentable evidence. But if Korean government legislates and enforces the same standard (with, say, FDA or tougher) of control, then all the demonstrations and debates become unnecessary. This is the loophole I've been repeating over and over again, here as well as in other discussion arena with other Koreans.
Actually, I support a tougher regulation on Korean beef as well, but that's a totally different issue.

Where are you getting your information - some teenage chat room? What exactly do you mean "2~3% of risk"? Do you think there's a 2-3% chance of catching vCJD from eating beef older than 24 months? That's nonsense. Americans eat beef older than 24 months and there is no evidence that anyone in the world has ever caught vCJD from eating US beef. There is a 0% chance of catching vCJD from eating US beef. There have been no cases of cows younger or older than 24 months having BSE since 2006.

What do you mean "the beef to-be-supplied to Korean market do not perfectly match with what is being sold in the US"? Your president was on TV saying the beef to be sold in Korea was exactly the same as that sold in the US. No brains, spinal cords or intestines will be exported to Korea. All the potentially infectious parts of the cow are removed and destroyed shortly after the cow is killed. You have been misinformed.

Stop going round in circles and give us some evidence that there is any risk in eating US beef.

Your post is well-written and makes a lot of good points, especially about Korea's willingness to import beef from Australia and elsewhere. The part I mainly disagree with pertains to bone marrow.

Jake_Kim wrote:

You can buy bone marrow at a lot of grocery stores. Here's a thread of people discussing some of their recipes: http://www.chowhound.com/topics/375710

Here are a few other beef marrow recipes, although the list would be endless:

Tuscan style beef pot roast stuffed with marrow and rosemary http://www.cyberbilly.com/meathenge/archives/000995.html

Beef marrow bones on toast http://www.batemania.com/recipes/011700.html

Beef marrow sliders http://www.eatfoo.com/archives/2008/03/beef_marrow_sliders.php

And marrow bones are nearly always used in pot roasts and pressure cooking beef for stew.

Your point about Americans not eating brains or spine is one I agree with. As for intestines, you may be right about that also, though I'm not sure what they put into the beef franks. I know it's the less desirable areas of the cow and lower grade beef, but whether or not they include intestines, I do not know.

The key point is that potentially infectious parts of the cow never enter the food chain - either for the US market or the export market. So the point our Korean friend is making about these parts entering Korea is completely false. Scientists around the world have carefully considered what parts of the cow are safe and what parts are (potentially) unsafe. Certain bones are safe. Intestines I believe are generally unsafe. Only the safe parts will be exported to Korea.

I doubt he's a troll. He seems to be just very misinformed and very gullible - like many Koreans.

It's not beneficial of you to quote Korean president for your argument because he is the one Koreans are protesting against and demanding to do a better job. Do you trust everything your political leader throw at you word by word? Like, 'There's WMD in Iraq' sort of declaration? Of course you can, word by word, if you choose to. But some people also can choose not to, depending on the issue.
By '2~3%,' I was throwing rough figures and I admit they are not founded figures. Yet, you're strictly relying on statistics which looks good since 2006, but scientists said that vCJD could lie dormant and undetected for years. And is BSE test conducted on every American cow when processed? No. It's a random sampling, up to 2% of the total. You can downplay the recent CNN video if it was provided by some animal rights activists, but you can't be that confident with your numbers if the rest 98% of cows have been processed untested, and the symptom of vCJD can stay dormant for several years. Although I keep my fingers crossed for the sake of people in both countries, your certainty with recent numbers does not merit your argument either.
Still, the scientists tell us it's fully safe if the cow is not too old (whether 24-month criterion is arbitrary or not) and if all the SRM are removed. And I fully respect their research results and opinion. So, I'm not the one who protests against every single piece of US beef or intends to prove that US beef is lethal to everyone. Rather, I could have an American T-bone steak as my dinner only if Korean government revise the agreement to import 'younger than 24-month, SRM removal guaranteed from all 16 parts instead of current 6,' the condition missing from the agreement and the official gazatte at the moment.
What is there too difficult to understand and apply? Nada.

Maybe if you read the April Agreement you might understand the issue better. The agreement states that the parts banned in the US can be imported to Korea.

It is true that the president Lee is trying to downplay the issue and saying the beef will be the same as what US citizens are eating, but according to the contract negotiated it cannot be true. if they can legally import low-quality meat they will.

I agree that U.S. beef industry needs to clean up its act, however I think there is more to the issue. In the wider scheme of things, a free-trade agreement between Korea and the U.S., and an additional agreement between Japan and the U.S., is being negotiated at this time, and drumming up nationalistic sentiment towards consumer products in both countries would strengthen the negotiating ability of each country in terms of trade concessions. Additionally, the current direction of U.S. trade will likely change in the up-coming U.S. elections, and both sides in power are under pressure to resolve issues in a timely manner, as their bargaining position could substantially change if their is a dramatic power shift in the U.S..
