Mind Invasion

John Huer wrote an opinion piece in the Korea times which said that Koreans should not be protesting the importation of American beef, they should be protesting the "virus" of American culture.

While they are out there with their candles lit over American beef, all of Korea is being overcome by a mind invasion from a wholly alien culture against which Korea has no known antidote. For no other society, except the U.S. itself, can afford to be so "American" and remain culturally sane.

Yeah I don't really understand this whole "invasion" thing. I mean I think Korea has its culture pretty solidly in place. It's kinda like saying that the British should be worried about the invasion of American culture...or the Japanese. I just give two shits about the whole "culture" thing. Kimchi is always going to be called Kimchi, and a Hanbok is always going to be a Hanbok. Despite the hundreds of failed "hub" attempts in Korea, it is certainly a "hub for museums on anything and everything remotely Korean". Thing is, some Koreans have a funny way of expressing themselves, and they end up looking a tad stupid. It goes a little like this:

give me STARBUCKS! give me BURGER KING! give me NIKE! give me STARCRAFT! give me HARVARD! give me VISA WAIVERS! give me..ZOMFG! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! is that US beef you are trying to give me? Why you gotta be taking over Korea’s culture of mad expensive cattle farming yo? That shit just ain’t right.
