Charles,
THose crafty nationalists always find a way to beat
that big bad drum of theirs. The reason you don't
hear it is because they have have to make noise. Even
thought there is a "lift" of the ban on Japanese pop
culture, Japanese pop artists can't release any CDs in
Korea if they are in teh Japanese language. How many
Japanese artists do you think use a language other
than Japanese? I feel the ban is still very much on
in this regard. No Japanese artists will affect
record sells at all in Korea. I don'tthink this will
prevent me from buying my favorite X-Japan record from
the illegal tape guy on the street though.
