- The animation for The Simpsons is done in South Korean sweatshops.
- There is a pissing match between Japan and Korea over the naming of the Sea of Japan/East Sea.
- In the original Age of Empires, the Choson was a pretty strong civ with a strong infantry and good first-strike abilities. I also dug the turtle boats.
- Most Americans' impressions of Korea are derived from what they saw on M*A*S*H (which were mostly Japanese actors)
- I believe that kimchi is a big deal in Korea.
- There are some kickass Korean films that pop up occasionally on Sundance and IFC.
- I also heard that the Interweb made its way to the peninsula. Since Senator Ted Stevens (R - Alaska) says that the Interweb is a 'series of tubes', can't I just take one of those tubes to Korea instead of enduring some Indiana Jones Style flight full of chickens and coughing peasants? Oh, yeah - I'd probably clog the tubes. That's make Sen. Stevens and his Hulk Tie angry. No wonder we need to do away with Net Neutrality.
