>You mean like when South Korean mainstream media outlets mistranslated Chinese press celebrating pickled cabbage from sichuan as "Kimchi" and then started saying China is stealing Kimchi from Korea

Again, there's a big difference here, because Chinese media, unlike Korea's, is essentially an arm and institution of the State.

And you and I both know that the Chinese would openly claim and steal kimchi if it weren't enshrined in UNESCO as a cultural heritage of Korea. Just as they steal everything. We're talking about a group of peole who claim Genghis Khan was Chinese, because he conquered China. Or who claim that hanbok is part of Chinese history, because their are Korean ethnic minorities living in China. Who pay exorbitant fees to have Korean directors come to China and teach their idiot leaders how to make movies and pop music. It's a shameful disgrace.

>Also, Korea would have been united under the north if the US didn't get involved.

You have to be top-tier stupid to think that would be a good thing. Just compare the two Koreas today, and you will easily find your answer to which side of the war should have won and unified the peninsula.

Had China not gotten involved, Korea would have been unified under a government that experienced the most ridiculous increase in standards of living and financials of any modern country today. The North would be free, families wouldn't be split, and the millions of people suffering under the Kim dictatorship in the North, spending their lives living in fear, would be free to watch dramas, or go to K-Pop concerts and cheer on their favorite idols. Instead, they're saluting the Kim family and making sure not to get caught watching bootlegged dramas, else they'll be shot dead in a public execution.

I'll never understand you tankies. Is the five cents really worth it that much? Perhaps you can spend it on some bing chilling.
