동아시아의 평화와 화해의 정치학 Scrapbook

Ell Lee ????????? You are so naive. You can talk about any fantasy you want if you do not have to back up. It is Koreans who chose to be Koreans. There is no reason for Japan to make neutralization easy for illegal migrants, yakuzas, people who do not obey Japanese Law and criminals. It is Koreans that disguise themselves as Japanese using Japanese name and lie that the Japan took names away. It is very hard to change surname in Japan. Just think why only Koreans are hated in Japan. It is because they engage in illegal activities and behave so badly in Japan. And when they are accused, they play victims. They are the biggest liars and professional victims. If you want to stay in other country, then respect the culture and tradition, follow the laws and rules of society. If you cannot do that, then just leave. Simple as that with any other country. It is NOT your country but it is a Japanese country. Koreans should be deported as the original agreement said. Their permanent residence was for two generations, and they should go home as such.

Easy to say cuz they are all Singaporeans, Japan-born Koreans are not even legally considered/acknowledged as citizens of Japan.

This makes so much sense. But in this situation, it would only work to asimilate the N Korean people into becoming more and more Japanese. Compared to so many other countries that has very tolerant, open, multicultural approach to society, Japan is relatively closed off, nationalistic. Not always in a bad way, they are very welcoming hosts to guests, yes, but as their immigration policy also shows, they aren't very open to mixing with other cultures. If the model you propose was instituted, in a generation or two, these N Korean kids wouldn't even remember they were Korean once. They would just be asimilated into the Japanese culture, rather than creating multi cultural harmony.

August Hayek really? Japanese are pretty racist. They just aren’t public about it. Anyways did you forget that the Japanese enslaved these Koreans and brought them to Japan? Japan also attacked America... remember Pearl Harbor. The Japanese are not innocent. You also mention that Koreans are hated it because of thousands of years of rivalry. Nothing new! Anyways I digress. At first when I started watching I was like WTF?!?! Are you North Koreans stupid or what? Why would you even identify as a North Korean. After I watched I kind get it. Let them have their school. It would be completely different if these kids where being radicalize and became subway bombers but they just want to hold on to their identities. I’m glad Japan did get rid of the network that was sending money back to North Korea but since they stopped that I think they should be allowed to keep their school. I mean there are Japanese schools in the US and again Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. North Korea hasn’t bombed Japan and really they probably never will. Seriously though, the North Korean people just need to assassinate the leader.

After living and working on three continents, I've decided that I'm tired of so much defence of multiple cultures within countries. Somehow multiculturalism always ends up being about conflict and hatred. The French Revolution and Napoleon afterwards succeeded in reducing cultural differences within France. Meanwhile in Spain, democracy restored cultural differences which are now tearing the country apart again. Protecting heritage and cultural sensitivity ends up being an excuse for hating everyone who doesn't share that same heritage and culture.

The major problems happen when one culture decides to wall itself off within a country, living in a specific section of a city and isolating itself with language and cultural barriers. From there it is a short step to an 'us vs them' mentality. Many in a minority culture feel their heritage is being lost, or at least diluted. However government efforts to preserve minority culture need to avoid circumstances that can boil into hatred and conflict generations later.

Japan, Korea, Taiwan. At that time, Japan was a "One country, three systems". In conformity with the system, Korean participated in politics in the Korean Peninsula and made a law. For that reason, Because systems about the prostitution were different, the Koreans could not become prostitutes under the system of the Japanese archipelago. But it is thought that there was the woman who set to work illegally without receiving permission. 個人的な見解として、裏の理由として、日本の売春制度では、定められた場所でしか営業はできませんが、その定められた場所というのは殆どの場合、古くからある色町であり、日本独特の秩序と文化がありましたので、そこに朝鮮人業者と朝鮮人の売春婦が入って来ることによって、場を荒らされてしまうことが嫌厭されたのではないかと思います。

When a Korean wanted to emigrate to Japan, it has need to acquire a permit. However, obtaining permits was difficult, and illegal acts such as counterfeiting, robbery, buying and selling occurred frequently. Of the Koreans who remained in Japan, 3 - 50% are people illegally residing in Japan. Current Europe = Japan in the era of Japan-Korea Annexation. Koreans who had not obtained permission when coming to Japan were caught. And the Japanese Government returned them to the Korean Peninsula. People who are commandeered, and came to Japan are fewer than 2%. Including those recruited by the Japanese government, it is around 6%. They had no reason to stay in Japan, so most people went back to the Korean Peninsula after the Second World War. After World War II was over, many Koreans entered Japan illegally. In other words, most Koreans came to Japan for own intention.

A Japanese does not discriminate against a Korean, and a Korean discriminates against a Japanese. That culture is called "Kaichitsujo". This thought is grounded on Korea being nearer to China than Japan. However, Japan is not a Chinese vassal state. Thus, the Japanese does not sympathize with Korean thought. The Korean discriminates against a Japanese. It is one of the reasons why Japanese dislike a Korean.

I agree with you 100%. Japan absolutely did some terrible things before and during WWII but Jesus Christ have the Koreans and Chinese been milking it ever since. If the US, Britain and France still treated Germany in the way that China and and Korea treat Japan then today's global landscape would look very, very different. Why should these schools receive any money from the Japanese public system when they openly teach an oppressive ideology that is hostile towards Japan and calls for the destruction of Japan and its allies? They're just lucky that Japan still allows those schools to even exist in the first place because most other countries don't. If, for example, an Islamic faith school in Canada, Australia, America or the UK is found to be teaching radicalist ideology or is funded by a source that the respective government doesn't like then that school is forcibly shut down.

And now they whine about discrimination. What's a bunch of professional victims". 4/ "Just deport them all to Africa. If they can't assimilate to the way (white) American live, they can celebrate black culture in Africa, not in America." ...and so on...

Leon Ironically, the most close minded people here are most likely the people from Vox with their 24/7 liberal bull. Sure, if an individual were an illegal immigrant, they probably should(similar to any other country). To be frank, taking in immigrants/migrants costs money. There is nothing inherently wrong with looking out for YOUR own people first. In this case, if these kids glorify this horrendous dictator and his values, then why stay in a foreign country where they aren't comfortable in? Obviously the Japs wont fund schools in their own homeland filled with N. Korea propaganda, and I respect that. This isn't comparable to a simple immigration issue either. If you are in a country, you should respect and integrate into their cultural norms and values, not change it and isolate yourself into your own cultural bubble, no matter what country it is.

Pam injapan 2 days ago

Close minded ha, no not at all. You cannot immigrate to another country and expect them to financially support you. nor your culture. It's very simple. Japan is Japanese why in the world would they accept outsiders who don't represent their culture and make any type of concessions for them? Besides that Japan is technically is STILL AT WAR with the Koreas! Why allow the enemy live here? Because of a Armistice Agreement ? while their leader fly's missiles over our heads and threatens us daily? which by the way is not all reported to the world. Get real.

August Hayek 5 days ago (edited)

Knight of Spirit You are naive and easy to be fooled... It is the Japanese students that are attacked by these Korean students all the time. The Koreans are professional victims. These students are also trained by their teachers to say they are attacked while they are attacking. You can read about this in books written by Koreans who used to play the game of hunting and assaulting Japanese students. Just about every student around him was playing while even the teachers were encouraging. Because there is no diplomatic relationship between Japan and NK, the NKoreans act as if they have quasi-extraterritorial rights and the Japanese police are very weak against them as the issue is so political. Japanese students near Korean schools are terrified of them. They came to Japan for better life or illegally migrated during the Korean War. Also these people chose to be North Koreans instead of South Koreans, meaning they want to be communists, and their ultimate goal is to overturn the Japanese government for a communist revolution. This involves violence, illegal political activities, kidnapping Japanese, smuggling out nuclear and missile parts, illegally sending funds home, sabotaging Japanese society....you name it. That is one of the reason their crime rates in Japan are so high. They need to brainwash these kids for the jihad and for this end they need to prey to the Kim photo everyday. They have already kidnapped many Japanese. They are hiding many automatic weapons, rocket launchers, hand grenades underneath their houses, some of which were revealed after the Hanshin Earthquakes when their house were shuttered. These schools would be illegal on US or South Korean soil, even if they pay for themselves.

This is an extremely complicated issue so disgusting it peacefully is the best thing we can do.

Thales Guidote 3 days ago (edited)

August Hayek Hey man, when you make claims as serious as these you need some sources or any form of backing at all. These people support North Korea because the Japanese government neglected them and failed to integrate them, just like Americans do, so these outsiders are marginalised and, even if I doubt that this is real or based on anything other than scaremonuring, become hostile to the natives that cut funding for their schools. Also the communist takeover of Japan can be flipped, imagine this, you are a North Korean and all the rest of the world wants your way of life and government, that everyone you know says it's the best there are, to be obliterated, you would feel threatened by people trying to change your society, even if for the better you couldn't possibly know that, so in you perspective it's the capitalist takeover of North Korea. I believe the best way to go about this issue it's to NOT riot for these people to leave, but rather to give them schools that aren't biased and treat them as a Japanese citizen with a Korean background. Again, this is my perspective, so feel free to respond, the best way to discuss this issue is peacefully.

August Hayek 2 days ago

Thales Guidote You are such a professional victim. What about all these subsidies they got so far? This issue is right at the core of the taboo in the present day Japanese society. It is NOT some thing you can read about or get access to information UNLESS you have special connections and dig in. But one thing that is clear is that you do NOT know about the history of Japan and this issue. After the War, it was GHQ that used Koreans for the WGIP. Even though Koreans were Japanese, after the War, all of sudden they started acting as if they were victors in Japan acting violently in the absence of Japanese police. They raped women and killed many Japaneses to steal properties and Police could not do much about it. You can read about these in those day newspapers. You can also read books written by Korean students who played games of hunting Japanese students while their teachers were encouraging. There is no much contest because if Japanese students fight and get caught, they will be expelled while Koreans become hero. So the Japanese students were terrified of them. In this video, I saw comment by a Japanese Motti, who used to get assaulted by these Korean students. Why don't you ask him? These North Koreans could go home any time as many of them did. But they came to Japan by their choice, and decided to stay by their choice. If you know your way is the best, do that in your HOME country. The Japanese are so sick of Koreans bad behaviors by now, high crime rates, spreading lies domestically and overseas; illegal political activities; money laundering and sending illegal money back home; smuggling out missile and nuclear parts; demonstration against Japanese emperor; kidnapping of Japanese; drug distribution; espionage activities; threatening Japanese corporations and authorities; all the Yakuzas; .... you name it.

+iih I can say that I understood, as an outside American viewer, that the video seemed to mean that the structural discrimination was against North Koreans specifically, and usually against those that are participating in the Chongryon community. I don't think you need to worry about people watching the video and just thinking that Japan structurally discriminates against all Koreans. I will say, though, that a lack of foresight by the Japanese government likely invited these issues and the current situation. I think that their current actions, such as refusing to subsidize these schools, is probably correct, though. It's just unfortunate that these kids are stuck in the middle. I feel fairly certain that if the schools were not teaching the kids to venerate North Korea and it's leaders specifically, then the Japanese government would begin to subsidize them again, though. So, the way out is there if they shift their curriculums. They could still teach Korean culture and language without the politics. The way out is there for them to take. Honestly, I don't see why they don't since they are not getting funding from North Korea anymore, it sounds like.
