there's this dude in bundang who has some of the most awesome, relevant and thoughtful stuff to say about the whole korea vs. japan dokdo video.

apparently even the bundang police like it!

LMAO! This guy needs to take a geography 101 course. "Japan is a HUGE empire.... it strethes from Taiwan.... to the Arctic" MUAHAHAHAHAHA...

Last time I checked Taiwan was just north of the Philippines and the Arctic was near Siberia/Alaska and northward!

Funny video though.

now i'm even more confused:
1. "but some people covet them that is real nonsense"
2. "Dokdo Dokdo I'll keep it for my sake"

when i heard #1 i thought, 'thank god, someone finally understands that the whole dokdo issue is nationalistic drivel!' but my hopes were soon dashed by #2, which totally contradicts #1.

so i'm not sure if THIS video is sarcastic or not. his accent is so bad it almost sounds fake. catchy tune, tho.

no - this bundangbear guy is a genius. he's one of the most well-read, learned and respected video bloggers out there. 509 subscribers can't possibly be wrong!

Ah...that idiot again.

Don't feed the bears is right. This guy is desperate for attention. Positive or negative, it's all the same to him.

no! he is a guru... in the realms of history, ethics, global politics, teaching and copy editing. following his example will just make this a better place.

Interesting thing about that guy. He defends Korea and Koreans relentlessly in his videos. But do you think the average ajoshi has any respect or care about what an overweight/disheveled white guy thinks. I'm surprised he doesn;t know what 99% of the Korean populace would think of him. Talk about a waste of time....

Looks like the guru has some competition (but this guy actually seems to have a train of thought and a discernible message):

no way! even the bundang police love his dokdo video. as far as ajosshis go, korean cops are the most ajosshi-tastic. you can win no greater seal of ajosshapproval.

He has a great voice. I wish I had a cubicle job and he worked in the next cubicle so I could listen to it during every working hour. Yeah.

yes. i think his voice is beautiful. it sounds like a mountain made of stars covered in daisypoofs.

and what is best about his videos - he is on point about everything he says!
