Multicultural Illusions, Sparkling!

 King Baeksu has released a new book on how foreigners are stereotyped in the Korean media.  I couldn’t find the book on Amazon.com, so I’m assuming there is no English translation.  Read the below article if you want to get a feel for his main arguments.

Despite bombastic government rhetoric touting an "age of multiculturalism," Korean society has become more self-absorbed and closed over the last decade, according to best-selling author J. Scott Burgeson.

The 42-year-old American said his new release is an effort to start a sincere national dialogue on the positive participation of Western expats in Korean society. But the mainstream media have ignored him.
