And this kind of crap news about Koreans (even if they are US citizens living outside Korea) makes your day. You have problems sir! |

"Host Tyler Florence announced that the truck [Koreans], which had placed in the top four, would no longer participate in the competition because its owners had added $2,000 of their own money to their cash drawer in order to compensate for a lack of sales during the episode's challenge."
How is the title misleading? They cheated. Got caught. Then removed from the show. Just like the title said. Geesh....the Korean apologists need to get a clue. meh. |

The owners of Korilla are not Korean, they are US citizens. That is why it is misleading. Get a clue? Good advice. |

If they or their parents are from Korea and they identify themselves as Korean, and they're cooking Korean food, for all intents and purposes other than immigration police, they are Korean (albeit Korean American).

Intensive purposes? Isn't that what hogwans require in the summer and winter? 
Koreans didn't cheat and get kicked off the show. Americans did. |

Are you sure the purposes were intensive? |

| Korean Americans who do bad things like prostitution, human trafficking, bear poaching, largest mass murder in US history, for profit unnecessary heart surgery, murder, rape, stealing womens panties and used tampons and toilet tissue from dorm rooms and cheating on reality shows are Americans. When they do things like win Olympic gold medals, become Super Bowl MVPs, and go to Ivy League schools then Korea claims them. Got it? |

@radcon - You are wrong on one count. Korea did claim the mass murderer as one of their own. Cho Seung Hui was defintely not Korean-American. He was 100% Korean with no US Passport, only a Green Card. Within a day or two of the massacre, President Roh Moo Hyun of Korea, called American President George W. Bush, to apologize.
When did a Korean American ever win Olympic Gold?

True in some circles he was regarded as Korean and Roh Moo Hyun apologizing was ridiculous. But just as many Koreans thought that "yes he may be a Korean citizen but he has been living in the US for many years and that is the reason he became a stone cold terminator."
Can you explain why Hines Ward and Toby Dawson were such big deals in Korea? |

Hines Ward, yes. Who is Toby Dawson? Never heard of him.
Why was Hines Ward such a big deal? How many Korean-Americans even play in the NFL, much less win the Super Bowl MVP?
I don't have a dog in this fight. I'm as white as white can be. I was only agreeing with @jvalmer that the title of this thread was misleading... |
