Today I went walking near the area where the protest is taking place. Many people showed up against the mad cow disease problem. I just watched from a distance and seen how many young people line up to support the cause. Cops were everywhere I went and seemed ready to take action if needed. I really feel impressed and interested at the same time when I see this sight. Many people fighting for something they care about is really a new experience to see. But the media involved around this is interesting as well. This has got a response from Lee Myung-bak. I wonder how the result will end, I hope it ends in Korea’s favor.
One thing that happen that day was an older man asked a foreigner a question. He asked him “what do you think about this here?” the American foreigner said ” I don’t know”. This made the old Korean man respond with remarks as “how can you not know you can see with your eyes?” and ” America kills many people.”
I know this is a issue between Korea and USA but I think people should not be rude to others over this issue. It is not a problem between American people and Korean people but a problem between governments. How do you think?
