Not likely to love Japan
All Korean people might know they aren't likely to love Japan which is right next country to their's. However, almost the rest of the world might not.
As you know, Japan is one of the best-known Asian country to all round the world. Not merely I would rate Japan as 2nd ranker on the world ladder, but also many other Koreans would.
So, In public, it looks natural that they say Japan is leading this world in fact, Japan is showing a great performance in many areas it takes part in, and Japan will be on top otf the world, etc.
Though, a different thing happens in reality. Korean people have a tendency to pretend as they are cool seeing Japan's achievement. But they are really aggressive especially on things with Japan.
Japan has been seeking a 'gate' to get out of the island, because they wanted better living conditions like weather, fertility, and land stableness--earthquakes usually prefer Japan to Korea, China.
So, if Japan wanted 'a step to the land', the first one would always be on the Korean peninsula. Needlessly to research history, you will imagine how many bloody events had happened between Korea holding the the key to the land and Japan desiring it.
The historical atmosphere is like above in brief. Let me go on telling about Korea catching up Japan. What Koreans have deep in mind is to beat Japan up eventually. When it's time for a soccer game Korea vs. Japan, it becomes a nationally-serious event. Koreans lose other concentration than that to this game, the game winner is almost evething winner who holds the samile in the very next morning.
In the industry, If Sony is leading the world electronics market, Samsung quickly outruns. Japan used to be the no.1 in LCD(liquid crystal display) market, but it's not like that anymore thanks to Korea. Sometimes Japan is too busy competing with top 5s to worry about Korea way back there. But Korea would rather want to take the present no.1 Japan down to sit there.
Korean people take the fact that they are now in about 10th or lower, the while Japan is in 2nd or 3rd. But they don't lose the pride as if they're already no.1. They believe they are the smartest in the world. Next article will be about 'being smart' in Korea.
