I remember 2-3 years ago there was a journal essay on 4chan on the subject of South Korea being a social experiment subject of the US and the Western world. Do any of you guys recall the essay title. Im trying to do some research on the South Korea and its absence of unique arts culture and it obession of getting validated by the west. I am mainly interested on how this type of korean mindset will play out in the future. What should I read?
>>24978287Korea has never produced a piece of art, literature or media that wasn’t a derivative of another culture’s. Even Old Boy was a Japanese Manga. Nothing there is sacred and it’s a black hole of creativity.
>>24978287Read the Bible the passage about samsung. It's quite a coincidence that he dominated using an ass' cheekbone while gook dominate in media by shaving off their cheekbones looking humon for once
>>24979424Ironically Japanese architecture only exists in the form it does because they kidnapped Korean architects.
>>24979424The same for nobel prizes, even china and japan have them but nothing in south korea, its a very interesting country, they seem unable to let go of their japan and chinese grievances
>>24979751That's just Korean nationalist cope. And all of Korean culture is a pure copy of China. That's why the Chinese seethe when Koreans boldly try to go to international organizations to make an official claim on things that are clearly Chinese in origin. And the Koreans are granted it, because China is currently the enemy of the west, and Korea is an ally.
>>24978287The result of yin yang is shadow. Karate was a practice of shadow warriors known as ninja... As for the belief of the actual ninja themselves it was said to be Tao.
>>24978287Just read about what happened to Japan after WWII
>>24982506Although your post is hilarious, please refrain from spreading disinformation amongst the retards.
>>24982515Ok
>>24978287The premise doesn't surprise me. South Korea is a heavily-managed deep state captured society masquerading as a democracy. Its first "democratic" president was the right-hand man of the dictator who preceded him (and ended up catching corruption charges). The daughter of its most brutal dictator was also its most famous president and ALSO went down in a blaze of corruption charges related to an esoteric religious cult. Chaebols, the Korean military, and Korean intelligence agencies basically run everything.
>this country is worthless because gangnam style is a bad song, le pop culturino, muh movies, muh kike prizesI hate Amerigolems so fucking much, may nukes blot the Sun upon the whole American continent
>>24982596American website.American planet.
south korea must be doing something right to deserve all these seetheposts because nobody ever seetheposts about japan or china or any other jungle asian countries
>>24982644>1 thread>14 (now 15) postsbut that being said, there are far more posts about japan or china
>>24982664this thread is basically >insert random seething about south korea with "what should i read?" added at the end. if you look at other boards like /tv/ and /a/ you can see similar seetheposts.japan and china do get mentioned, but rarely with so much seething. it's pretty funny.
>>24978287South Korea was late to democratization which is the likeliest reason. Hegelian and Confucian influences are common. Master signifier is highly fluid, night of the world is default sceptic position. Elected assembly rejected martial law imposition quickly recently and the state boasts some of the highest suicide rates in the world. Consistent failure to bribe residents to procreate, not as intrusive as Taiwan. Political polarization is equitable or near equitable with western countries. Chosen period was the high point for cultural uniqueness.
