The Chinese definitely wouldn't want Noda to be in China during the anniversary of the 1937 Nanjing Massacre. Good move China!

There are so many odd statements up there.
Every Korean does not have an English name. Nicole has one cause she was born in the US.
Someone mentioned about a Japanese director. It's a Korean director and Joe Odagiri is the Japanese ACTOR nor DIRECTOR. Please don't get confused! =)

Posted in: Korean drama backlash See in context
It is completely understandable on their end because showing more K-dramas then J-dramas in their own country is a bit excessive. However, if the majority of the public enjoys watching K-dramas and are "riding" the Hallyu Wave, then there really shouldn't be a problem.Maybe they should confine all K-dramas to one channel rather than spreading it broadly among other networks. Considering how South Korea doesn't allow for any Japanese-related media to be shown, the Japanese networks (e.g., FujiTV) are definitely moving forward. There definitely should be some give-and-take to this situation but we'll see how this plans out. As far as I am concerned, the general public in Japan ignore these type of protesters because they can't achieve anything.
