So, I was searching my username, and sure enough, I found out that somebody took our thread on the Korean pop group Girls Generation/SNSD's performance on Letterman and translated it into Korean so I suppose Koreans could see how Americans reacted to the performance.

Kinda cool, huh? The crazy thing is, this is not the first time this happened. I once found out a GAF thread had been translated to Japanese.

So, Korean-speaking GAF... what are they saying about our thread? They have kind of a lengthy discussion about it. GAF's influence is almighty. It's a little freaky, really. The stuff you say may come back to bite you in the ass. :jnc

My korean is a bit rusty but one of the post says:

'Kim, whats wrong with your online translator? There is no way that american men are into childish pop music aimed at young girls. "

One day I realized that sadness is just another word for not enough coffee.
We could be internet community pen pals with them.

She's right.

The people in those SNSD threads, I'm not sure what they are.

Either I made up lies about the Boston Bomber or I fell for someone else's crap. Either way, I have absolutely no credibility and you should never pay any attention to anything I say, no matter what the context. Perm me if I claim to be an insider
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

They called NeoGaf a Sausage party.

And that NeoGaf is a shitty representation of foreigner opinion on KPOP.

And that NeoGaf is populated by Japan-lovers. My translation is rough on that one.

Populated by a bunch of SNSD lovers. Heh.

They don't care about making something good as long as they can make some cash. I'm sure the girls are practically slaves making 20,000 dollars a year like NSYNC was.

All I'm saying is, as with pretty much 99.9% of pop acts put together by a record company, they are probably taking home a surprisingly small fraction of what they actually earn or are worth.

If the Korean scene is anything like the Japanese, they're salaried employees.

They really have a low opinion of Americans.

Just noticed that one dude's burning Japanese flag icon.

This thread is surprisingly quiet for something related to SNSD... Title should be updated to include them. It's like a turkey call for the Keeaboos.

Yeah, you have been.

Some are implying Gaffers/Americans who have a fascination with Japan, love Japan so much that they would work against Korea kind of way.

Whereas in that thread, I had a bad day and low impulse control and misdirected anger. So, basically a Korean day.

I don't think weeaboos would work against Korea.

Like the word for "Friend of Japan" or "friend of America" is "chinilpa" or chinmipa."

But the historical/cultural context is that of a collaborator.
