How come Korea is becoming so much more culturally dominant in the world than Japan...

How come Korea is becoming so much more culturally dominant in the world than Japan? Every asiaboo I know loves Korean culture, food, fashion, music and movies while only fat weebs and other social rejects have the same open love for Japanese culture. Everybody talks about after the pandemic they're going to go to Korea. Korea just seems so much cooler than Japan.

Is there a reasonable explanation for this?

Governmental funding.
Japan is also considerably bigger in population, which allows them to just invest in the local market, while all the most successful Korean acts regularly invest in Japan.
The Japanese give so little fucks about international success that you can't even find music videos on Youtube.

global trends i guess. also more than any other asian country, including japan, koreas entertainment industry goes out of it's way to make entertainment as palatable to western audiences as humanly possible

Because weebs can't get japanese partners so they have to settle for Koreans

Why are Korea and Japan always compared? Korea is more similar to Poland and Australia. Japan is more like UK. You only compare them because they're Asian. As for why Korea is perceived as cool,

Despite the memes Korea and Japan are still incredibly similar societies, it makes sense to compare them.

not true tho

That's true. When I flew from Korea to Japan the flight was so short and when I got there the atmosphere was basically the same.

What are you talking aobut? Other than Yas Forums only dumb white women are obsessed with korean culture

>Why are Korea and Japan always compared?
Thank you.

That's what I always wondered thing.

maybe for westerners think Japan and Korea is similar.
but We Japanese think we have big difference.
and We don't gibe a shit about whole Korea thing.

Korean gov pays people to constantly compare Japan and Korea. It's part of their Christian cults

Korea would be on the level of East Timor and Burma had Japan not annexed and modernized their country. Even today you can still sense their jealousy for Japan.

>Other than Yas Forums only dumb white women are obsessed with korean culture
so like half of consoomers that matter?

of course you see a lot of similarities in korea, because it's a former japanese colony in which everything, including industry, social structure, city planning, and regulations, was made by, copied from, or modeled after japan in the first place. so comparing the two as if they were peer existences is sheer nonsense. korea is nothing but a work of japanese imperialism.

Didn't happen. Japan temporary occupied the country after being attacked by Korean militias, but it was a purely defensive measure. Stop proxyposting and trying to make Japan look bad

did japan invade korea?
yes

would korea have been free and independent if japan did not exist?
no

>but isn't Japanese culture is copy from China as likes a lot of korean culture copied Japanese culture?
relationship of japanese culture and Chinese culture is as like the similar situation of the western culture and Semites middle eastern civilization.

Or Japanese culture is more derivative than an imitation like how the US was influenced by the UK

Saying japanese culture is just imitation of china or so Is typical Western hypocriteness and delusions due to lack of education.

In that logic of you Semites middle eastern brought civilization to primitive noth west who has primitive Celtic and primitive Germanic culture (as like Jomon of japan.)

and western culture is based on the Semites middle eastern civilization.

Nothern Europian are useing Indian number.
Latein alphabet which is developed from Phoenician alphabet which Is Semites.
Natural sience from Greece which is learn from Egypt and Mesopotamia.
And Christianity from Jewish from Middle East.
And Greek and Phoenician culture which is developed from Egypt ,Mesopotamia and Babylon.
Western Architecture was based on bricks and stone building invented by eygipt and Mesopotamia.
Iron and sword making of west is originated in middle eastern ancient civilization as well.

Western hypocrites

In that logic "except of ancient Mesopotamia Iraq Of now who was invented first oldest civilization " would be all not invented anything.

relationship of japanese culture and Chinese culture is as like the similar situation of the western culture from midddles east.

Korean is just doing invented traditions and fake origine propaganda for the budiness

If you can’t understand this difference then lack of intelligence so no hope for you

it is the result of statal measures for exporting their culture, starting with music in the 2000s and a gradual acceptation of it, as it isn't as "hard" for your average joe to digest as it is simple and, may God forgive me for typing this, catchy.
The appearance of "Urban tribes" (at least in Chile) in the 2000s made this process easier, as there were a teeny tiny group of teenagers willing to dwelve into this subgenre called K-pop, which were the founding stone for the worldwide recognition that it has today, and the diffusion of this, in Scoial media only made the spread easier.
personally I don't get the appeal of it, but you do you.

before japanese annexation korea was much more like china. in fact they used to style themselves as 'little china' or 'lesser china' and take pride in being the best disciple of china.
so if you put it that way, the real-estate developer of the subdivision is "japan corporation", which made the korean family move to there from a subdivision developed by china corporation.

Anons how do you tell apart a Japanese and Korean from their face?
I think it's not possible. Like how you cannot tell apart an Indian and Pakistani or a Spaniard and Portuguese person just from their faces

korea was africa-tier until the 60s

This is some deep mental gymnastics lore

what do Koreans think of foreign tourists? are there any "Korean only" restaurants like Japanese ones?
