I simply tell them South Korea is 11th biggest economy in the world.

People have wrong impressions on Korea because they hear a lot about

North Korea with its starvation and poverty. Still popular MASH depicts

Korea as the one in 1950s. We should correct their perception when

the chance arises even if it bothers us.

Because it is a matter of Nation Image which influences not only our

personal image, but also the sales of merchandise that are Korean-made.
