While "Strongman" Trump continues to inflame an already volatile situation on the Korean peninsula to new levels with his misuse of office,
here is a real reaction from the people next door, the South Koreans. What do South Koreans think about North Korea?
Are they afraid? Are they ready to go to war...
The second set of videos is from Jacob Laukaitis, a videographer from Lithuania.
enjoy the videos. I hope that all these videos opens people's minds about the two Koreas.
From an outsider's perspective. Powerful but moving...
Again, a little note and something to keep in mind while learning about N/S Korea.
up until the early 1990's South Korea was a full fledged brutal military dictatorship!
Below is a a collection of videos showcasing the civil conflict of 1980-5-18,
The Gwangju massacre/uprising which was the catalyst for democratic change in South Korea. The Government of the time was a major US ally involved in manufacturing colt AR-15s, grenades and ammunition.. The US media continuously downplayed
and often referred to the events in Gwangju as little more than an isolated incident by a group of rebels. The truth was that this rebellion involved the entire country.
Many South Koreans were very angry with then President Ronald Regan for his support for Chun's dictatorship.
In Seoul, the US embassy was firebombed and windows broken. Anti-Americanism was at an all time high.
