i highly doubt about regarding blackface, brownface or yellowface itself as offensive or racism. the point is what kind of the context it is used in. at least the blackface of rats & star has not been used in negative context. i dont think its offensive as well as racism. Baye McNeil is wrong a...

Pssst. No one tell Take that it's not 1991 and being Korean is sexier than being Japanese these days.

Are you looking for commercial or residential property? Commercial is less likely to advertise on the street so what Yokohammer said goes double in that case.

Isn't that a compliment in Japan? A hairdresser that used to be a regular at one of the bars in my old neighborhood was stereotyped as a playboy because if his job.

I've got no problem with them being assigned work related to maintaining the prison or making things like license plates for the state. For profit companies outsourcing to prisons has always bothered me though.

What kind of third world shithole allows that kind of thing.

if reported case does not reflect committed case, this kind of statistics are almost meaningless. i recommend you to see the fact as it is, putting aside your gaijins k-sympathy as a reaction toward recent j-anti-koreanism.

I know someone working for Hanjin in the US. He says it's an absolute shit storm. No one knows what's going on, they're not being told anything by upper management, and customers are freaking out.

By the way, Russian beer is awful. Unless they've improved on it since my trip to Mongolia in 2001. That was pretty much the only beer available there at the time. It made fermented mare's milk with chunks of fat, dirt, and random horse hairs floating in it seem like a good option.
