I know about the political history, but I had no idea that it was down to a social level. Those ARE different things ya know. I mean America and Japan have some bad history, but I don't see many Americans hating on Japan for what the previous generation did over 50 years ago (Darunia aside). I had no idea that individual people in Japan actually hated Koreans as a people. THAT is something I had never heard before.
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
