I think you would get on just famously.

Wait...you mean you think they aren't the same person/troll?

Whyever would you suggest such a thing? I think that Mike and Dave could get together and bring all their friends (real or imaginary) and they could analyse the detrimental effect of stupid foreign teachers on the glorious Korean nation. I would love to be a fly on the wall in that scenario.

Imperialism is bad no matter who perpetrated it.

and nobody answered my question. has anybody seen a korean heckler in any audience in any event? is it just a "you know who" thing?


It's probably mostly a drunken frat guy thing, but it would be interesting to test your premise. Have the guy do shows in various venues with different ethnic groups. Let's start with an all black audience in say, Atlanta. Then a Latino audience in El Paso. I'm sure they'll all be so respectful to this Korean guy they've never heard of, and NEVER mention Gangnam Style, the horse dance, or anything else remotely impolite.

The point being, Gangnam Style is so huge right now, odds are someone was going to mention it at some point during the show. Even in an all Asian (or even Korean American) audience I bet somebody would at least mention it, but that wouldn't have caused a newsworthy incident and certainly wouldn't fit your script.

Heck, you could have an all white (or black etc.) audience with a white (or black etc.) performer on stage and someone would probably mention Gangnam Style. When something gets that big, EVERYONE is going to shout about it.
