They've really gone too far this time.
Anyone seens their latest "Korea is paradise" commercial? Absolutely awesome. Apparently since Korea now has about 1 million expats, it is a diverse, multicultural land where "everyone is given a fair chance" (or was it "where everyone is treated equally"?) They also run off a load of other crap that is meant to make Korea sound diverse, and dare I say it, "dynamic". What a bunch of B.S. If any country in this world is the complete opposite of diverse, it's Korea. Just about the most one dimensional place you can find.
How can they write this stuff and continue to look at themselves in the mirror? |

Arirang is evil. I don't know which is worse, the plastic voice-overs, or the female hosts who speak with Korean-Queen's British accents while force smiling and doing little cutesy signs with their fingers.
Though I applaud the guy with the big nose who hosts the kids' game show. He has no shame in his game, just goes full bore and collects his paycheque. |

Some people believe it's possible to put a price on one's dignity. I personally DON'T. |

"Diverse"!!!
That's the word they kept using... Korea has diverse cultural backgrounds, Korean's enjoy diverse activities, etc. etc.
What a bunch of crap.
Most of the time I can just laugh at the silliness of Arirang... but claiming Korea to be "diverse". This is not acceptable.*
* If anyone hears of a suspicious, ticking, package being delivered to arirang... run! |

Is Haiti and the U.S. a divided nation?
Good comparison. |
