I mean, sure I can call my local representatives to give more to you guys, but before that I actually would love to see you appreciate or even recognize South Korea. We gave significant amount of financial aids to Ukraine since day 1 but it seems Ukraine hasn't give any credits to us lol

We elected our first democratically elected president Rhee Syngman in 1948 and since then various government officials in 1952, 1956, 1960, in 1963, 1967 and 1971 and so on. My grandparents participated in all of aforementioned elections, cast a ballot and said they never felt like their opinions were under represented. Yes it had its own flaws (for example, there was a famous mail voting election fraud in 1960 by then vice president Lee Ki boong but people took to the street, did massive protests and in the end overthrew the government. There was a military coup in 1979 but they also eventually resigned after huge civil right movements and protests) but still, it was a massive progress since we were literally either monarchy or under imperial influence where individual people had no voice at all.

Is that because you have 70 IQ or because you have no basic concept of give and take?
As a South Korean, I am not sure whats the point of helping them if even the head of their country officially don't appreciate or even recognize us.
