Gotta love those Koreans. 10 years ago no one
even mentioned Korea in terms of hi-tech.
Today not only does Korea have the highest percentage of broadband
penetration - but also two major players in our World - Samsung and
LG.
All I can say is that the folks at the local Korean BBQ place
(Brothers on Geary) know me and my family pretty well. My
children have been raised on Bul Go Ki, Kim Chee and Jap Chey - and
they fight for a turn at the grill.
This article is on home networking - but they're also leading in
memory, LCDs, cell phone and industriousness. I've heard stories
of 12 hours shifts going on hand-in-hand between Kansas City and
Seoul.

Korea is a country where:
-
Everyone thinks they know best.
-
No one is willing to lose.
-
Final decisions are never final.
-
Opponents are respected by vilifying and dehumanizing.
-
Violence is considered a way of teaching.
I know this because I know best and I am not prepared to accept
contrary opinions.
Anyone who thinks otherwise are communist pigs who deserves a good
beating so they

Baton
"Today the number of mobile phone subscribers has surpassed 35
million, and accounts for 75 percent of the total population.
In particular, almost all people in their 20s and 30s own their
mobile phones and a mobile phone is the most wanted birthday present
among elementary school students.
Not too long ago a mobile phone symbolized wealth and power, now,
in such a short time it has become a necessity....
With such advanced mobile infrastructure in place, everyday life is
rapidly going mobile.
Sookmyoung Women¡¯s University in Seoul is the case in
point and currently attracting attention from all over the world.
Under an initiative to build a mobile campus with KTF, students now
use their mobile phones with built-in student ID card to enter a
library, borrow a book and inquire about personal records.
They installed an attendance check system at a large lecture hall
whereby students can simply touch their phone to the system to record
their attendance.
And hospitals are now getting in on this too. Samsung Medical
Center now uses PDAs to identify and check patient records including
the status of a patient, treatment records, prescription, test results
anytime and anywhere. Much more convenient and reliable than the
bulky, paper records of the past....
More interestingly, now mobile phones are used as means for
well-being by providing information such as blood sugar, diet and
meditation. A mobile phone even offers services like driving away
mosquitoes, a finger vibrator for hand acupuncture and music therapy,
a guard service by sounding a siren, a location tracking service and
product information in which a camera phone is used to read a
barcode." [The Korea

Sales of MP3 Mobile Phones to Break 5 Million at Home This
Year
"This year, LG Electronics introduced Korea's first MP3 mobile
phone, the LP3000, which has sold over 300,000 units, and the company
expects that the sale of their MP3 models will easily smash through 1
million units this year. An LG official noted that of the 20 new
models to be introduced in the domestic market by the end of this
year, 80~90 percent of them will be MP3 phones. He also said MP3
functions will become a basic function of mobile phones like camera
function.
Pantech & Curitel said it expects 1 million of its 3 million
units of supply to be MP3 phones. Most of its 15 new models will be
MP3 mobile phones. The company added, 'We plan to provide MP3 function
as a basic function.' It explained that therefore, the domestic MP3
market should greatly expand." [The Digital Chosunilbo

nuclear war" with
"moves to put the strategy of pre-emptive nuclear
attack into practice." Fighting words. How come nobody in

History Lesson:
Heart of the matter by Hayami Ichikawa and others at Asahi
Shimbun in Japan pinpoints
the real issue behind the ongoing conflict between Japan and Korea
over Dokdo (Takeshima)
islets: Koizumi and his cabinet are clueless.
Hayami understands why Koreans are so upset over Dokdo and explains
it well:
To the South Koreans, Takeshima, a group of islets called Tokto in
Korean, represents
a symbol of Japan's 1910-45 colonization of the
Korean Peninsula.
The incorporation of the Sea of Japan isles into Shimane Prefecture
on Feb. 22, 1905,
is viewed as a prelude to what Japan was later to inflict upon the
peninsula.
It's now 2005 and it seems to be happening all
over again.
Japanese government's history whitewashing service covers US too
because mentions
of the fact that no WMD has been found in Iraq were removed from
school textbook drafts
at the request of Japanese government officials.
Pretty funny? Well, not if you consider that Japan is trying
to buy a seat in
the UN Security Council. Brrrrr!

Korea, A Nation of Spoons
Korea, A Nation of Spoons
06/11/2004 03:34 AM
I think Korean food is wonderful. After all, I have eaten it
all my life and
I still eat it three meals a day (thanks to my wonderful
wife). But what I haven't
noticed until recently is how Korean cuisine is uniquely
'spoon-centric'. Other
countries use spoons as well, but they are usually brought out only
when there is
a need (i.e. soup). In Korea, spoon is the primary
utensil.
As long as I could remember, I had a spoon and chopstick with my
name on them.
By that, I don't mean my name was inscribed on them, but I could
recognize my utensils
by the shape, color, feel, and sometimes smell (well, I was a
little paranoid when
I was little). With every Korean meal, my spoon and
chopsticks were laid side-by-side
like a couple married for life. Which is the male? The
spoon, of course.
It's masculine and uncompromising where chopsticks are feminine and
versatile.
Why is Korean cuisine so spoon-centric? Because a proper
Korean meal comes with
a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup for each person. The spoon
is used for both
the rice and the soup. The chopstick is used mainly for the
side-dishes where,
in China or Japan, chopstick is used for practically
everything. Also, there
is usually a shared soup in the center for which spoons come in
handy. These
center-soup is usually served piping hot and has a name that ends
with either Tang
or Jhigae (i.e. Maewoon-Tang or Kimchi-Jhigae).
Hmm. This post made me hungry.
