Dear All,

I'm very surprised by the topic all together.  Isn't it simply to be 
expected that whatever country you're in, you're most likely to get TV 
broadcastings of that country's athletes?  At least this has been my 
experience watching the Olympics in the U.S., Canada, Germany, and, yet, 
South Korea too.  But then maybe I should't be surprised by this 
discussion, given how some of our colleagues on this list conveniently 
ignore to put things in a comparative perspective when commenting on 
Korean society, culture, etc.

Yours,
Gene Park
