Don't they have love hotels in Korea?

They have yogwans, which are like motels.  No fancy Disney castles with the automated condom dispensers like in Japan.

Still a very tough play.

Korea? K-Pop, Blizzardfandom & Hitler restaurants.

South Korea... 


UWO - Uncharted Waters Online - designed in Japan but the global server is managed by a SKorean firm.  A greedier, grubbier gaggle of crooks I've rarely seen.  No customer service to speak of, secretive in the extreme and they're up to any trick to squeeze money out of the player base.  <_<

 Have a care, tim. It's only a matter of time before she demands compensation and rowdy koreans swarm the U.S embassy because of your alleged crimes.

It can't be helped...We'll have to use 'that'

Korea - cheap cars.

Don't be busting on Hyundai:  in the event of a catastrophic event upon the electrical grid, those 800kV transformers that feed our cities?  Hyundai's one of the only places to get them, because they're no longer made in America.
And since Hyundai possesses force majeure, in the event of a multi-grid failure Hyundai can sell them to the highest bidding power company.  So tack on the 3 months it'll take to ship them here on top of how bad your local electrical company lost in the bidding, and has to call Siemens instead to construct one from scratch, because they don't exactly maintain an inventory, either.

Ugh.  Shouldn't building transformers that be, like, subsidized under national defense or something?

Remember when America was prepared to recover from a nuclear war?  What happened?

Cheaper to get them overseas.  That way, we don't have to worry about things like EPA and unions, Yi will be happy to know.

the commies lost and you decided you'd rather pay less for shit.
Being lazy is bad; unless you still get what you want, then it's called "patience".
Hubris must be punished. Severely.

Korean labor is pretty heavily unionized.

Nobody gives a kimchee fuck, since Korean labor doesn't pay political contributions to the DNC. 

Yet. :ph34r:

That happens when you join the first world.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

 Raz, be careful what you say. If heavy unionization is part-and-parcel with first world membership, it says ominous things about our beloved Dixie.

Don't worry.  Dixie will never be first world.  The South is the North's Mexico.
