Be extra careful what you download
“Jjanggu,” the popular character in Japanese animation series “Crayon Shin-chan (“Jjanggu the Unstoppable”), often takes his pants off to perform a butt-revealing dance.

Hongdae losing indie spirit
Hongdae losing indie spirit
Hongdae, the area around Seoul’s Hongik University, has long served as an incubator for indie bands and poor urban artists.

Nostalgia for sights and sounds of the '90s
In the early 90s, before the days of iPhones, rapper Psy and even the Internet, people still used evolving hi-tech communication, and were often star-struck by celebrities and, of course, had fun. To younger people, perhaps the famous figures and fashions of that time seem dowdy and find it hard to imagine how people dealt with daily issues without the aid of instant communic...

Ignorance breeds racism
Ignorance breeds racism
Seemingly ignorant of what constitutes racism or discrimination, some Koreans utter racist remarks or engage in racist behavior. Apparently, they don’t realize what they are ignorant about and this ignorance becomes the seed of their racism.
