A video, which shows an African-American attacking an old man on a local bus, has caused adverse reaction from Korean netizens.

In the video, the young man wearing a blue T-shirt and a blue cap is mocking the old man, provoking an argument. He is saying bad words repeatedly not only in his native language but also in awkward Korean.

Why did all those people tolerate it?

Reading some of the comments, it appears to be a cultural thing, an adversion to physical violence. It was apparent those people had never witnessed first hand that typical ghetto intimidation.......

“That hairy piece of crap has nothing to do with America.”

Unfortunately he has a lot to do with America. We’ve encouraged this type of behavior by tolerating it here. This type of racist bullying goes on every day here.

US-Korean relations are much more than just military.

Americans don’t need visas to travel to Korea, so he could be there as a tourist, as a short-term English teacher (Ha Ha! - maybe not this guy, but you can make good money teaching English in Korea) a student, an athlete, a hired DJ - anything is possible.

Every Korean male who has been in the military has learned enough Tai Kwan Do to be a black belt, depending of course on if they practice. There are a lot of Korean patriots, and I am surprised not one on that bus has stepped up to get between that punk and the old lady.

I believe in S. Korea, if you get involved in a fight even to break it up, you get fined pretty heavily. Someone correct me if I'm wrong...

If you watch the video there is no doubt

1) he’s an american
2) he’s not military (haircut)

It turns out some of the koreans are saying “NI-GA”, which is part of ordinary korean speech (means “you”) and meant innocently.

The man in the video interpreted this to mean they were using an epithet when they weren’t so he attacked.

That’s no excuse for savaging an old man and acting like this in a foreign country, but it helps to understand what is going on.

Enlightening. If that's so, that's the funniest thing I've heard in a while.

Just goes to prove:

1) When going to someplace unfamiliar to you, it pays to do a bit of studying ahead of time, language being high on the list.

2) A chip on one's shoulder doesn't do anyone any good.

You don’t think some Koreans haven’t made the sonic connection between “ni-ga” and” Ni—er”? They probably think it’s funny!

I hear you.

I try to spread the word of its increasing prevalence as best I can.

Beyond that all I can do is refuse to tolerate it myself.

I’m betting you do the same.

They needed a Korean version of "Epic Beard Man."

“Of course they will smile as they do it!”

Chances are I’m quite frankly sure that they are planning on getting him when they aren’t in a public place. There’s no point in really doing it now when the police will treat him even worse.

That’s the crux of the issue; they aren’t used to seeing this among themselves, or in public and against an elderly citizen of all things. To them, that sort of behavior is incomprehensible and very shocking. There is a totally different culture and likely they didn’t think that it was even really happening.

I suppose so to be perfectly frank. They are stoppable, my only wonder is, who will have to put a stop to it and at what cost to the US? If at some point, it starts spreading like Nazism, or Communism, what if the US is treated like Germany or Japan in WWII, if only to put a stop to it? Put frankly, it owuld be horrific if blacks did start trying to globalize the ‘black power’ movement. What is the price for peace if we don’t squash this, like, now?

When I see stuff like this happening abroad, it embarrasses me as an American...

This video made me sick to my stomach. I'll grudgingly tolerate (for lack of any better explanation) that violence in our own cities since we have become accustomed to it but I just can't fathom that act on those innocent and harmless people on that train..........

An unaccompanied tour doesn’t mean “no dependents.” It means that the military member gets no government transportation into/out of country or host base/DoD support for a dependent(s) while in country, should the member decide to bring that spouse into country.
