List members who insist on presenting a non-Korean centric view of the
country on their websites and furthermore insist on using Western
imperialistic romanisation systems should check the following news story.
"Wrong info on Korea still abounds on Net"
http://www.koreaherald.co.kr/SITE/data/html_dir/2001/03/21/200103210035.asp
Penultimate paragraph:
"In order to tackle the unwanted distorted image of Korea on the Web, KOIS
plans to host "Internet error hunting games," a public event aimed at
finding out erroneous information on Korea, and will continue to demand
corrections with host sites."
I'm interested in seeing how they will "demand corrections" from more
stubborn list members, but presumably it won't affect visa applications.
Any comments on the article...
