"We hope to do some other kind of PR activity like this again in the future" ... but from July 2008, around 10,000 people visited (some including their parents). Guess Japan needs to think of another PR strategy.

Unfortunately, this is really true not only for men but most japanese. That's why when they are in trouble, financialy and emotionally, they tend to commit suicide, rather than asking for an assistance atleast from a neighbor. How many japanese know their neighbors anyway?

“It is important to respect and understand regional food cultures, which are based on traditions with long histories.”
Doesn't justify that you don't need to change.

DentShop > I read this in Washington Post so yes, this is an AP.
I also read in a different article that Kim said on an interview that she didn't even felt pressured nor felt nervous. She added that it didn't felt like Olympics at all and that its just like other competitions she participated previously. The article also mentioned that S.Korea looks her up as a national hero.

"Do you think it should have been?"...which one? the crash or the airing it on national TV?

"...the men who you gave chocolates to on Valentine's who didn't give you anything in return on White Day are social idiots." by Sarge...
as much as I want to agree, but those men didn't ask for those chocolates in the first place. They might only want to give chocolates (come White Day) to those they want to give it to. So if you are willing to give from the heart, don't expect something in return, else, just eat your own chocolate.

I think its ok. It also goes the other way wherein a different national did a good thing like for example "Brazilian National saved baby's life".
Saw it in other country's news as well..like "Japanese national wanted for murder", etc.
Posted in: Do you think it is appropriate for newspaper headlines to include the nationality of defendants or suspects wanted for questioning by police?
