Y’know what’s hilarious though?
The current South Korean government is a direct descendant from the dictatorial regime implemented by the US after the Korean War. That regime was mostly made up from former Japanese colonial rulers, Koreans who were cozy to Japanese rule.
So the current political, cultural and economic situation there is based on American and Japanese rule and culture.
Oh yikes. I never heard that.
The more you read about Korea and the Korean War the sadder you become 😄
