Need proof that Korean students are shy and subdued?

This video speaks for itself:

NOTE: Be sure to turn the volume up on your speakers so you can hear these barely audible students!

The editing in that video was pretty well done. Funny stuff.

What makes you think they're American?
God bless 'em and BTO, some of Winnipeg's finest sons.

The big American flag, for one. I haven't been in a Korean church, but that church stage looks like many I've seen in the US.

I'd bet ther are American.

I honestly don't think Korean Americans wear those kinds of clothes. (notice the shoes at the beginning of the video) I could be wrong...but it seems more plausible that the OP or whoever made the video stuck the flag up there... Question


WAIT A SECOND....


Are those Salvation Army uniforms?? Whoops!

1: Flag in the corner makes it America. Canada has yet to adopt the American Flag as its own.

2: It is obviously a church.

3: It is obviously a salvation army uniform.

4: They are obviously not really playing or singing.

5: They are obviously Asian(perhaps not Korean???).

----What is the OP saying? These are not actual Korean students in Korea.

Weird. I didn't even notice the American flag.
Maybe I was distracted by the *dynamic* performance of those young men.

All: FYI

BTO was a Canadian group that made it big time in the U.S. They're about as close to heavy metal that I'm willing to embrace.

Unfortunately, YouTube has been deleting some of the actual musical performances of these rock groups out of concern for copyright violation. Anyone else noticing that?

I love these guys' enthusiasm, the fact that they are Asian (Americans) and get in sync quite well I'd say.

Nothing like the cruising music and guitar riffs of BTO. Man.

Now that they've got the $$$, lawyers are lined up and waiting at the door.

The company recently struck ad-revenue-splitting partnerships with Universal Music, Warner Music and Sony BMG. But now comes the hard part. As a condition of those deals, YouTube has agreed to filter its site for the labels� music and offer the music giants the opportunity to pull infringing content off the service if they don�t like how it�s being used.
