Yesterday, I received a news that a Japanese actor got sacked by his agency because of his racist remarks by Twitter. In general, a Japanese actor by the name of Sousuke Takaoka got sacked by his agency, Stardust Promotion, because his tweets offended the trend of Hallyu (Korean Wave). In fact, that Japanese actor must have hate everything Korean (from K-Pop music, Korean celebs, Korean dramas and so on).
Takaoka said he accuses Japanese TV network, Fuji TV (famous for airing the One Piece and Dragon Ball animes), for airing too many Korean shows, calling this network an all-Korean channel. It happened in July 23, 2011, when that actor refused watching Fuji TV because he claims that this Japanese TV network is too Korean. He said that Korean programs brainwashed many Japanese youth and made them real bad. That was the reason why Sousuke Takaoka got kicked out by Stardust Promotion since July 28.
With Takaoka fired, we may believed that this Japanese had started the whole anti-hallyu revolution. With that, some Japanese netizens want to follow what Sousuke Takaoka did. They want TV ratings to be dropped and they want to target against everything Korean. Some say, they will use the date, August 8, 2011, as their Day of Rage. Their Day of Rage is simple; stop watching Fuji TV in order for their ratings to drop.
Japanese people are one of the foreign people who got hooked on the Hallyu (Korean Wave). They're like us. We love the Hallyu. We love K-POP, we love Korean celebs, we love Korean dramas, and we also love Korean cars (well at least the Japanese used to).
Back then, there was Hyundai in Japan but in late 2009, Hyundai decided to withdraw the Japanese market due to poor sales and focusing more on the Hyundai Universe bus. Fortunately, sale of Korean-made cars is not the last of it because GM Japan just launched the Korean-made Chevrolet Captiva for the first time in Japan. Also coming soon is the Chevrolet Sonic, known in world markets as the new Chevrolet Aveo.
If Japanese people ended up hating the Hallyu, well fine because if you do, you're missing out all of these. Stop the hating! Please! We're only doing this to keep this whole Korea-Japan friendship safe from those lifeless people who hate the Korean Wave.
