Lots of people may have seen this already. Pretty much hilarious... If you're a racist. Don't laugh if you don't want to be a racist.

Why does it make someone a racist? Because they can recognize some reality in it?

So if my wife laughs at me when I take the piss out of other Australians, she is a racist too?

To answer both posters who had questions regarding the nature of their racism... Yes, and um...... Yes. You and the other's wife are big fat sweaty racists. And if you can't see that, I suggest you do some inward searching. But hey, look at it this way, it could be a hell of a lot worse; you could be gay. Eeew. I can't believe I even typed the "g" word. I'm gonna go wash my fingers. Gross!

Anyone who thinks this post is racist is an idiot.

It's true because I said so.

I've never seen this, but it is a lot of funny. It is kind of satiring certain cultural attitudes in Korea, the stuff some Koreans keep insisting about the culture to inflate the image of the land. It is funny how the make fun of the way some exaggerate certain vowel sounds in Korean. I think this is fair stuff, not racist. It is an attack against Korean nationalism. What's that music in the end. It's some 70s music that I've heard before.
I take it these guys are Japanese guys making fun of all the nationalism?
They don't look Chinese.

Yeah, I was thinking that it was likely that this gem had already gotten a lot of attention here. Wasn't sure though, and thought the majority of the posters on this forum wouldn't mind a little catharsis after a long day in the trenches.

I can't find the clip on YouTube, but if any of you can find the 9-11-2003 episode of The Daily Show, Steve Carell does an awesome segment as Pete the Green Grocer and how to make kimchi.

But if you find it funny, you're a racist.

Those guys are hilarious, but it's being a bit overly sensitive to call it racist. The fact is it's brilliant and astute. Racist would be just blatant lies, but Korea is a country that is like a sitcom in itself. To watch people talk nonsense and act foolishly is hilarious.
