I love it.
The pitiable, victimized, colonized Koreans having suffered all the despicable travesties of Japanese colonialism turn around and envision themselves as the colonial masters of Indians.
And people don't get it when it is said that Koreans are insecure.
Retards.
Wonder where VANK is? Oh, that's right, they are too busy monitoring misinformation on Korea and Koreans in foreign places so they can't quite get around to monitoring all the crap misinformation on foreigners in Korea.
Retard hypocrites. |

The guys from South Park would be proud of that effort.
Nobody parodies Koreans more than Koreans themselves.
Proof that if you give some people effort rope they'll inevitably find a way to hang themselves with it. |

I think that their main idea was to incorporate some of the appeal of violent video games into educational cartoons by illustrating two of the most popular English-learning songs in that way.
Probably the creators are fairly young themselves and have a pronounced video-game sensibility...
And, kids born into meat-eating families tend to be naturally cruel to animals anyway, I think (I know that I sometimes was ...)
There are probably a lot of naturally-born racists as well (as far as initially fearing those who look different...) but most racism is learned from parents , friends, and personal experiences... |

I don't see anything wrong with it.
Those links were much milder than I expected. I grew up with a lot worse, and even though I know people will use this post to contradict me, I think I turned out OK.
I used to eat "Golliwog Biscuits" everyday after school. They were delicious. Meanwhile my best friend was a black guy from Brazil. He loved them too.
My mother, European with English as her second language, taught me the eeni meeni miney mo song in it's original form. She didn't realise the meaning of the bad word. By the time my dad heard it and corrected it, it was too late, I still think of it the old way. |

What a crock of *beep*.
Are you saying that most people are naturally cruel to animals?
Most people I know are naturally nice to animals, especially as children. Watch a small child with any animal. The fact that there was bacon and eggs for breakfast is completely unrelated to how the child interacts with the animal. |

I doubt that was produced by a Korean. What's the point of your thread title?
I might add that it was also boring. |

The point is that kicking dogs and shooting "Indians" isn't what I would consider conducive to a compassionate, tolerant education. Western teachers often come in preaching kindness and acceptance, without realizing how much training kids have had the other way, or how desensitized kids are to animal cruelty or racism. |

I'd agree with you if only it weren't for the hangul in the dialogue balloons, the farmer wearing the Saemaul cap and living in a chogajip, and the overall artwork and mindset being almost unmistakably uri-nara-ish. Except for those, I would have guessed Scandinavian. |

sensitivity is sometimes overblown. kicking dogs and hitting 'indians' in cartoons is a far cry from actually eating these creatures without a second thought. i'd rather people watch 'offensive' cartoons for entertainment than actually kill mammals bigger than themselves and eat them thinking they are 'meat' a product considered to be a human creation in line with chocolate. |

anyone who eats fruit and vegetables is cruel to plants. Personally, I wait under a tree until a piece of fruit falls of it's own volition, or I eat road kill. |

Funny, cause I think it looks like the kind of dumb myopic mob that would think that the Native cartoon is not offensive. |

Western teachers, western teachers!! What's so special about western teachers? Look what happens in western schools. They teach their students to take up guns to shoot other people? Who is worse?
Besides most western teachers in Korea are bunch of backpackers, not real certified teachers. By the way what's the definition of being "a western teacher"? Oh, you would be a western teacher, if you thought those animations showing racism and animal cruelty? Just take it as a joke or some fun... not anything political or social.
I guess you are not smart. You'd better get yourself educated before you judge Korea based on some lame animation.
