Sensationalizing military drill could backfire: China

[lcloo]

Bcoz, they use young and beautiful actress and handsome actors in all their movies,and there is always hero and princess. Young boys and girls are crazy about these movies, they wanted to be like the actor hero and actress princess.

OK, this is for East/South East Asians, why the fu&king East/South East Asians are obsessed with Korean movies nowadays? This phenomenon will inflate their fu&king ego even more.

Because honestly without any prejustice, the quality of Korean movies are the best in Asia.

Koreans consider Mount Baekdu as the place of their ancestral origin and as a sacred mountain.you can find more on wiki.

They appear in Indian textbooks too.

Do you have a link to back it up?

I don't recall a single Indian history or geography(state or central syllabus) textbook,that i have come across, showing China from the context of territorial claims.

Oh yeah,they do show Aksai Chin as Indian territory.

Then how come all the top grossing and award winning movies are from China?

What are South Koreas top movies? The Host? Old Boy? My Sassy girl?

These movies made a lot of money but mostly in Korea.

On the other hand Crouching Tiger and Hero made a lot of money in non asian countries.

Top grossing South Korea film

the host = $89,106,383

Top chinese movie?

Crouching Tiger, Hidden dragon = $213,525,736

Koreans consider everything to be sacred (including the island they are disputing with Japan), so that's very little reason to entertain their idiocy.

Japan does. Japan created Manchukuo and Japan considers Manchurians as their brothers.

Japan did NOT CREATE MANCHURIA, JAPAN invaded Manchuria and took it over

Manchuria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Manchuria was the homeland of several nomadic tribes, including the Manchu, Ulchs, and Hezhen (also known as the Goldi and Nanai). Various ethnic groups and their respective kingdoms, including the Gojoseon, Sushen, Donghu, Buyeo, Goguryeo, Xianbei, Wuhuan, Mohe, Balhae, Khitan, and Jurchens have risen to power in Manchuria. At various times in this time period, Han Dynasty, Cao Wei Dynasty, Western Jin Dynasty, Tang Dynasty and some other minor kingdoms of China occupied significant parts of Manchuria.
[edit] Manchuria under the Liao and Jin

With the Song Dynasty to the south, the Khitan people of Western Manchuria, who probably spoke a language related to the Mongolic languages, created the Liao Empire in the region, which went on to control adjacent parts of northern China as well.

In the early 12th century the Tungusic Jurchen people (the ancestors of the later Manchu people) originally lived in the forests in the eastern borderlands of the Laio Empire, and were Liao's tributaries, overthrew the Liao and formed the Jin Dynasty (1115–1234), which went on to control parts of northern China and Mongolia. Most of the surviving Khitan either assimilated into the bulk of the Han Chinese and Jurchen population, or moved to Central Asia; however, it is thought that the Daur people, still living in northern Manchuria, are also descendants of the Khitans.[9]

The first Jin capital, Shangjing, located on the Ashi River not far from modern Harbin, was originally not much more than the city of tents, but in 1124 the second Jin emperor Wuqimai starting a major construction project, having his Chinese chief architect, Lu Yanlun, build a new city at this site, emulating, on a smaller scale, the Northern Song capital Bianjing (Kaifeng).[10] When Bianjing fell to Jin troops in 1127, thousands of captured Song aristocrats (including the two Song emperors), scholars, craftsmen and entertainers, along with the treasures of the Song capital, were all taken to Shangjing (the Upper Capital) by the winners.[10] Although the Jurchen ruler Wanyan Liang, spurred on by his aspirations to become the ruler of all China, moved the Jin capital from Shangjing to Yanjing (now Beijing) in 1153,[11] and had the Shangjing palaces destroyed in 1157,[11] the city regained a degree of significance under Wanyan Liang's successor, Emperor Shizong, who enjoyed visiting the region to get in touch with his Jurchen roots.[12]

In 1234, the Jin Dynasty fell to the Mongols.

He didn't say manchuria, he said Manchukuo

The current Korean national myth was basically a creation of the Japanese colonists and their Korean propagandists. The whole myth of Mount Baekdu was created to mirror Mount Fuji.

B.R. Myers's recent book The Cleanest Race is a good read on this topic. While it's focused on North Korea's racialist ideology, it touches on a lot of common feature of Korean nationalism on both side of the DMZ.

Top chinese movie?

And you think "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was a good movie?

"Host" had 13,019,740 tickets sold in Korea which has a population of 48,758,000. That is a quite achievement. "Host" was not the only one that achieved ticket sells over 10 million. Almost every year, the top one box office belonged to Korean film in Korea with over 10 million admissions. Same can not be said about China.

Tell me a Chinese film that than achieve this in its domestic market. Even with 1.3 billion population, tell me that a Chinese film that can achieve box office over $80,000,000 in its own market. Also, none of the Korean films had a budget over $12,000,000 unlike some of the Chinese films. That is how successful they are.

The Chinese film that are successful outside of China are either Zhang yimou's films that show a really backward poor China or those stupid ancient time movies that have people flying around. None of the contemporary films like the one Korea has catches any eyeballs outside.
