  • Recently a Filipino-American TikTok star shared a dance video where a tattoo of the infamous Rising Sun symbol could be seen on her arm. This outraged Korean netizens, some of whom escalated the incident into racist attacks on the Philippines. This lead to the #CancelKorea trend in the Philippines. For the first time ever, we actually conducted two street interviews in Seoul and Manila at the same time to get both sides of the story. Let’s hear what people had to say.
    The opinions expressed in this video are those of individual interviewees alone and do not reflect the views of ASIAN BOSS or the general Filipino and South Korean population.

As for British schools, honestly how many of us learn more than the British perspective of WW1 and WW2? It's very bias and anglo centric.

    • @octavia7408
      @octavia7408 3 роки тому +66

      @TheFandrian Easy to judge but if you look deep into history, it would be easy to understand. Sabah was ceded to the Sultan of Sulu by the Sultan of Brunei in 1658 for the former helping a victory over Brunei enemies, but the Dutch and Brits messed that up. Technically the Sultanate of Sulu owns Sabah if you honor historical land claims which you should do because you wouldn't want that 200 years from now to happen to your family. But since it's been a long time and that area has been populated by more people influenced by Malaysia, that's why the people there don't want that to happen but I'm pretty sure if the Philippines was rich and influential, the people there would not hesitate to be part of our country. Really as easy as that. Also Sabah is territorially closer to the Philippines more than it will ever be to Malaysia.

      We don’t hate japan, we hate imperial japan

      I think the reason why Koreans have a more negative perspective towards imperial japan is because Japan kept stealing stuff from east asia rather than southeast asia because of the pearl harbor attack in 1941. They started asking for metal plates and bowls from normal east asian households for them to make planes and ships. They stole less from southeast asia because it was less efficient to carry the stuff all the way to japan. So in southeast asia, people there are rather more positive towards japan then koreans are. We are not forcing other people from other countries to study about our history, but it would be nice to respect each others opinions

Because the sin of the father is no longer the sin of the child. To this day, the old Japanese soldier that treated us poorly are already dead. And no one there is to blame for what they did. That's why we hold no anger and restrictions to Japanese and to other Japanese-related things. We know the they are no longer accountable for the sins did by their ancestors.

You may not understand why they're sensistive about it, it's just best to respect it and their culture. It doesn't mean that just because other countries also suffered under Japan, the pain and damage cause to Korea have been made any less.

Even with the Filipinos knowing that (because it's obvious in some historical kdramas) you cannot see Filipinos dragging that issue with this.
      The whole thing started because of racism. If only that particular Korean/s didn't say any racist comments Filipinos wouldn't have defended themselves and demanded apology. And take note Bela Poarch isn't even a full Filipino and she doesn't even live in Philippines. I don't see anything that could be a reason for those Koreans to ttack Filipinos beside Bela being a HALF FILIPINO. And one thing I even noticed, why is it that those Koreans didn't attack Poarch's other half race? Because they are superior than the Philippines?
      There are so many reasons for Filipinos not to understand this rude attitude towards our race but then, as you can see in the interview, they accepted the apologies of Koreans and didn't even made an excuse. That's just how Filipinos are. And for being like that doesn't mean we will always let other race ridicule us. We can also fight back and we will.

    I will talk about the background of the Rising Sun Flag issue.This issue started suddenly after the 2010s. After a South Korean soccer player(Ki Sung Yueng) scored a goal in the 2011 soccer match between Japan and South Korea, he imitated a monkey to insult the Japanese. After the match, he was criticized for it, but he made a false excuse on social media. "I cried when I saw the Rising Sun Flag in the spectators' seats. Before I am a player, I am a citizen of the Republic of Korea ..." (Even though there was no Rising Sun Flag in the stadium at that time ...)
    However, in South Korea, he was sympathized on the contrary, and then the Rising Sun Flag began to be regarded as a problem. The Rising Sun Flag issue began with the lie of a South Korean soccer player.
    In short, this issue is an anti-Japanese story created suddenly by modern South Koreans. Until then, the people who actually lived in the era when Japan annexed Korea did not consider the Rising Sun Flag to be a problem. Anti-Japan by South Koreans is too unusual. The Filipino girl with this tattoo doesn't have to apologize at all. The Rising Sun Flag hunting that South Koreans are doing all over the world is just a blasphemy for freedom of expression.

      agree . im a filipino and ive worked in korea for 3years 2018-2021 . but no im not a factory worker, im actually a CAD technician working for a machining company in ulsan .. and in 3years i learned some reality about korea..especially their hatred about japan.. SOUTH KOREANS DONT HATE JAPAN AND ITS PEOPLE .. BUT THE REALITY OF IT, THEY SEE JAPAN AS THEIR COMPETITOR IN THE REGION... THEY SEE JAPAN AS THEIR CULTURAL,POLITICAL AND ECONOMIC COMPETITOR... ACTUALLY MANY KOREANS I KNOW NO LONGER THINK OF THE HISTORY.. YES THEY RECOGNIZED JAPAN AS THEIR FORMER COLONIAL MASTER BUT THEY NO LONGER GIVE SERIOUS BUZZ ABOUT IT....... THEY ALSO MADE IT APPEAR THAT THE RISING FLAG SYMBOL IS AN OFFENSIVE SYMBOL ALTHROUGHOUT EAST ASIA, BUT THE REALITY OF IT, CHINA AND CHINESE PEOPLE DOESNT EVEN GIVE ANY DAMn about that symbol..even taiwanese people.. thats why im so surprised why korean netizens are attacking filipinos over this issue..
      Which led me to think it has something to do with the another Thing i found out and learned about south korean culture and society. They are racist to filipinos...and they are just using this rising flag issue to hide their true intention which is just to racially attack filipinos and to have justification why they are angry .. for example, its so funny that if they see an austronesian looking guy and hes dark, they automatically think hes filipino, if youre south east asian and youre black and your nose is flat, YOURE FILIPINO! if youre white or fair skinned and youll say your filipino, THEY WOULD RATHER BELIEVE THE MOON IS FLAT OVER BELIEVING YOU SAYING YOURE A FILIPINO..
      and if you walk in public and they know youre a filipino, trust me , all eyes are on you.. we experienced that every time we go out.. we experienced it from ajummas!
      and they are very racist to indonesian, malaysian and filipinos, but they usually target filipinos, because koreans visit more often philippines , and also korean media portraying filipinos in dark ways.. for example, thai and filipinos have similar native accent but they often make fun of filipino accent over thai despite the similarities, there was one time i was listening to a local radio station in ulsan , the radio dj was sharing her story about her trip in thailand and she pointed out something she noticed in fhailand, EVERYONE speaks filipino language, and then shes using the laugh audio background to make it funny..and her co dj sarcastically mimic a filipino accent to make it even funnier..
      and also, every time we go out with my fellow filipinos and we speak our local language, i often hear some stupid korean mimicking our accent

The Philippines was only invaded and occupied in war time for the better part of 3 years and even then they didn’t even control most of the islands probably like only 12/48 provinces. But anyways yeah….lol The Spanish and Americans yes I can say they colonized us but the Japanese only occupied us

      I am Korean, and I feel that there is definitely discrimination between the rich and the poor in Korea. It's different from racial discrimination, but I feel that there is discrimination based on where you came from and which country you came from. However, Korea also had a time when it was very poor after the war. There must have been other countries that looked down on Korea at the time. Korean society should reflect on these areas. Of course we can boast of our rapid economic development after the war, but we have to be humble; Southeast Asian countries will also have to get rid of the stereotype of Korea. If we try to see the bad things of others, it will look endless. Always look back on yourself. As an aside, in Korea there is a word called gukppong. It means that you are drunk on the pride of Korea. The more time passed, the more I had to use those words. As a result, self-esteem becomes excessive and ignores other countries.
      Korea is doing well after the coronavirus outbreak,
      BTS and Black Pink swept the Billboard chart, Director Bong Joon-ho received an Oscar for Parasite,Korean dramas dominate the Netflix ranking, webtoons gain tremendous popularity, Korean cosmetics gain worldwide popularity, and Samsung, Hyundai, and lg logos can be seen anywhere in the world.

      A lot of koreans hate “imperial japan”, not japan
      Like europeans hating nazi germany but not germany
      I think the reason why Koreans have a more negative perspective towards imperial japan is because Japan kept stealing stuff from east asia rather than southeast asia because of the pearl harbor attack in 1941. They started asking for metal plates and bowls from normal east asian households for them to make planes and ships. They stole less from southeast asia because it was less efficient to carry the stuff all the way to japan. So in southeast asia, people there are rather more positive towards japan then koreans are. We are not forcing other people from other countries to study about our history, but it would be nice to respect each others opinions

      The Philippines, along with Singapore, Malaysia, and a LOT of other Asian countries, were under Japanese occupation during WW2 and an estimated 500,000 Filipinos died during that time (1942-1945).
      Korea was a little different. It was under heavy Japanese influence (by force) from 1875 and officially occupied Korea from 1910. Their rule lasted until 1945.
      During this time the Japanese tried to get rid of the Korean language, culture and steal as much natural resources, women (comfort women), labor (forced to work or fight for the Japanese military) and crushed anyone who disagreed with their rule. Many people suffered and died trying to fight for independence. It would not be wrong to say that Korea suffered more because of Japan than other countries in Asia that were only occupied during WW2.
      However, I agree with most people here that this topic is way overblown.

    Great discussion/responses. Ioved the mention of media playing a part in the misunderstanding of us all. We are not how media portrays us. Learn the truths about the people across the planet. I believe there is more love than hate.

    Tbh the Filipinos were more articulate and more open minded to what they were saying. Some of the Koreans in the interview seemed shallow and didn’t really talk about Koreans being racist over one person.

    The said TikTok influencer is a Filipino-American who currently lives in the US. I doubt if she can even recall American History, if she even learned about Philippine History, let alone Korean History. The point is, people will not always know everything about a country that is NOT THEIR OWN. So I believe that her tattoo mistake was an honest one and NOT INTENTIONAL coz she hates Korea lol What's petty is that Koreans started attacking Filipinos online just for the mistake of a single person, it definitely says something about how toxic social media can be.

      Let me ask you this though:
      What kind of grade A DUMBASS gets a tattoo without knowing what it means first? Jesus I thought that only white people got Chinese/Japanese (or any other non-latin language) words tattooed without knowing its meaning.
      I have no respect for anyone who gets something permanent on their body that isn't just a pretty drawing that is completely unrelated to anything else. Getting that flag tattoo just shows me that she has no intelligence lmfao

    Just stumbled upon this channel.. love the interviews. I think i heard this issue before but didn’t really paid attention (i guess too bz at that time my postpartum era).. i’m in Canada now and honestly i am not really into Koreans maybe bcoz i’m lazy to read subtitles. Anyway, hats off To the Filipinos interviewed here. Filipinos are always forgiving ❤ I hope Koreans knew that the Philippines was conquered by Japan as well. My grandfather was a WWII veteran and my bed time stories were always WWII life/expereinces of my grandpa… it was horrifying but i always love to listen to my grandpa’s stories bcoz my takeaway was his courage, strength and bravery. Beautiful but dark past. For a time i hated Japan but i guess you just grew out of it. And again we have the genes of forgiveness I guess. Now one of my dreams is to visit Japan 🇯🇵 ❤
