The Korea thread (Game Stores and Arcades in Korea)

Ah, there we go. I understand now. Interesting stuff!

 

Korea is very racist against Japan for a number or reasons (basically... Japan started it (apparently)).

 

It is pretty much down to Japan's 35-40 year (depending which way you look at it) repressive occupation of Korea up until the end of WWII, which lead to Korea's stance on Japan (held up in particular by politicians, who are always more representative of the older strata of society). Japan also don't help relations by essentially ostracizing large number of immigrant Koreans in Japan (and their decendents).

I found an awesome shop in the middle of nowhere in Suwon. I swear the game shop was inside a bigger shop selling clothes to young girls.
There was about 50 megadrive games there waiting since the dawn of time. I bought everything they had SMS wise.

 

That's just the most recent stuff.

Rumour has it that the Japanese government has a hefty collection of Korean and Christian ears/noses dating back from the 1590s buried in Kyoto...
