‘Dirty Gays’ or Simply Skinship?
I stumbled across this Youtube video this evening. The clip is over two years old but it highlights that even with internet resources at ones fingertips, some waygukin clearly miss the big picture and are only able to reach an understanding of another culture through their own cultural and personal prejudices. What the fuck is the point in coming thousands of miles from home to earn a crap wage when you don’t even have the luxury of removing your blinkers? The subtitle states: ‘there (sic) gays are so dirty.’ The idiot might just have well stayed at home!

Knowing about the Korean school system (as well as having gotten in KPOP around 6 months ago, and hence having an understand [and openness] of skinship) my interpretation of this video is the one boy on the left was napping or resting or something (with jacket over the chairs to block out the light), and his friend was chatting with him….and then later it looked liked one of them was giving the other a back massage or something…. I personally don’t see anything wrong with this video.
