At various subway stations in Korea, they often they are decorated at different times of the year with school art projects. Fire safety, future jobs, home life, technology, and so on.



The theme of this one appears to be "Fuck Japan!"



Yep, "Fuck Japan" indeed.



Bring your friends to the stomping parade!



It appears to be asking why they do not die and leave Korea's rocks alone.



The Japanese flags appear to stop burning once removed from a flame source.



Rather creative use of combining flag burning and "shitty".



This student skipped the metaphor and went for drawing the real deal.



Korean movies will stab at Japan...



...and Japan will die.



When not being burned or stomped, Japan's flag gets beat down by Korea's flag,



The fires get moved from the flags to the mainland! But what caused the fire?



Was it bombs?



A war?



Or maybe even Korean volanoes?



"From Hell's heart, I stab at thee!"



Those Japanese are pretty sneaky, so it seems the Koreans will need two knives. Or possibly three.



Screw the knives, the mainland will fall when the handguns get whipped out.



Will the hand of God strike Japan down? Perhaps so!



Why all the anger? Basically it's over the Liancourt Rocks. The Korean media decided to play up the issue this spring. And the Korean government rather than be mature about it and resolve it in the legal or political arena (legal being unlikely as few observers hold the opinion that Korea's claim will be upheld, and political resolution has not happened because it is unlikely that Japan will surrender all claims to the rocks), instead the government ordered the public schools to tell the students the Korean view without actually backing it up.

And this is the result.



Yep, hands off!



It used to belong to Japan, but now it's Korean according to this picture.



Look at how happy the rocks are now that Japan is no longer around.



Even Sailor Moon is saying "fuck Japan!"



Someone went and tattooed a gaint outline of Korea on the rocks. Now Japan can't have them back.



Japan can not reclaim the islands by force because the clouds will stop them.



Another map to where the rocks are.



Another photo of what the students are angry about for the wrong reasons.



Though they will gang-beat any Japanese citizens who try and correct them.



And they will beat them in the boats!



They will do that because Japan is a nation of liars.



A nation of liars led by a dog.



Seems this child believes that Japan was formed by a rabbit.



No matter how many times Japan says "sorry for the tough love", Korea will refuse to accept it.



There were many, many more. And more upstairs as well. But that is enough for now.



Thus ends another happy day in Korea.

I was about to write something snide, but perhaps these rocks contain valuable resources. I remember a Transformer's episode where the Deceptacons found much bird guano with which to manufacture explosives on a similarly small and uninhabited island.

Ah... There is just something about Propaganda among the young that just brings a tear to your eye...

Man, when I did similar things as a youth, I got promptly squashed by lengthy sessions with several psychitrists... I guess I should have lived in Korea...

Really makes you wonder just how informed all these kids are on the subject...

It makes me wonder how really informed I we are as a culture on the things we feel (or are told to feel) strongly about. It makes you wonder where textbooks come from.

ver interesting things, children rule at times
