I think it's important to know the year these pictures were printed. Otherwise they are pretty meaningless and not very constructive. Times change and so does Korea. |

Agreed. I don't think anyone would deny that racism existed in Korea in the past or that it exists today in the country. But it's probably fair to say that the country as a whole has been increasingly more accepting of foreigners and hopefully that will be a trend to continue.
It's one thing to point out that there's a fire. It's another thing entirely to start a fire for the purpose of pointing it out.
Those dictionary extracts, based on the illustrations, look pretty aged. |

Indeed.
And Korea is not really alone with these kind of things - Here is a liquorice candy wrapping, which is still being sold in Finland:

If all of these hate images are legit, how hard would it be to attach a reference? A book title or a link? Otherwise it's not very difficult to draw something up on a desktop art publisher and save it as a .jpg to upload and claim as authentic. |

I don't know if this is hateful, maybe just extremely silly, but I found it on a package of condoms in a department store two years ago.
