Beware of Korean Men, Japanese Ladies!

Rumor mills of the media are rolling, in effect, that fresh cultural developments in Japan are in progress. Drudge reports have it that matchmaking brokers are doing well who arrange international marriages between Japanese women and Korean men. It's been a weird turn of events that the number of Japanese ladies who venture to cross the East Sea to find their better halves is mounting. In nothing other than Korea, of all the global countries, where all assortments of cheating, humanly possible, are being done.


Asked why they've come to prefer Korean guys, Japanese ladies start enumerating magic charms of machismo Koreano: good looks, toughness and careful consideration. A Korean woman interviewee of the street, asked about the trans-Straits trend, gave a blunt response: Ha! What a nonsense.


As for me, I am inclined to appreciate their high regard for Korean men. But I am also inclined to warn them in advance:Arise from hallucinations. It's been a mirage, if any. Because of those unfounded illusions, the Japanese women might be drifting into dangerous waters. They might be taken advantage of, betrayed and deserted. I want to remind them of an eternal axiom that there's nothing new under the Sun.
