Hi all....I'll be arriving in Seoul in about a week and I'm wondering whether I should bring some little things for the kids from Japan....or will they be repulsed and offended that the items are Japanese??

they'll scream KOREA DOKDO! and then throw the gifts at your face.

all kidding aside, they'd probably let their hatred for japan slide if they're receiving a gift.

They like Hello Kitty and Doraemon. They also are pretty gifted at origami - my kids at least.
