Say bye!
Too bad.
How would they like it if American companies in Korea brought over hordes of illegal Americans to work in their factories, stealing jobs that should go to them and then demanding all kinds of services, given to them in their own language?
They wouldn't like it anymore than we do.
My bride and I were legal residents in Germany for decades, and I traveled to work in many nations. For that I have paperwork galore, as other nations' INTERESTS are that my work there be documented.
South Korea -- some of its internal INTERESTS -- were quite happy that its nationals broke American law. That was the demonstrable aim.
“South Korean workers who were released after days of detention in Georgia return home”
Would it be too much to ask to have them return to Korea rather than home? Had to read in a few paragraphs to ensure what home meant to the author.
The writer of that understands little.
We are *their* key ally, make no mistake about it. They’d be starving Communists if it weren’t for us.
An "ally" who sends illegals into our country? Sorry. Don't buy it.
I don't speak korean but what is it about "illegal" they can't grasp?
Well said and good point by someone with experience on the topic. Thanks.
The only thing south Korea should feel is shame and embarrassment at having violated the laws of their allies.
Before Trump returned to office, we would have lots of debates on the effects of the addition of millions of illegals to the economy. Since they were somewhat underground, there was not a great deal of data collection, and the impact was not well understood. In reverse, as they now exit stage left, the subtractive impact will be easier to measure, as they stop paying for their vehicles, once they are back in (fill in the blank).
A message from Trump to Companies Building Plant’s in America.
Hire Legal Americans. Those Jobs Belong To Legal Americans.
Funny how hundreds of Koreans just “go home” when busted, but if a Third Worlder is caught DHS has to prosecute them individually, taking months in some cases, just to get a deportation order, which will then just be stayed by a judge in response to an order from an NGO lawyer.
An excellent point. Amplifying on my earlier comment, I recall the paperwork / visa required to work in Japan and Brazil, as well. And the more annoying experiences in Canada of having to have not only a visa but membership in a certain organization as prerequisites. Any notion that ANY non-national in our USA has a "right" to work is laughable, based simply on what our supposed 'friends' require of us as Americans.
And besides, the paperwork hoops I had to jump through over the years was always possible to do, following THEIR rules.
They have rocks in S Korea, let them kick them around in their home country. A giant sucking sound happens when foreigners earn a living IN OUR COUNTRY, and send it home. I would rather one crackhead earn a living in the US, then the best citizen in another nation.
Is the benefit to the world by our industry, OUR jobs feeding foreigners, while people here live on the streets? I am thinking so.
If Mexico needs to have more production and income for their poor impoverished POS country, then follow the American governmental model.
If America wants more production and income for OUR people, go back to the past, and find our way back to enterpreneurship by individuals, and away from the example of BLACKROCK.
On BLACKROCK, isn’t that a reference to the Antichrist/Allah (my opinion) in a cube in Mecca?
The best thing to happen to these large corporations “investing” I call it stealing, housing, and holding it as an investment. That should literally be a crime, there must be limits to how many private homes are in the hands of corporations. Housing is meant for PEOPLE, not for corporations. Force Blackrock into bankruptcy, strip them naked, and let them thrash and wail.
Maybe the Koreans didn’t want to drag out it. If they can’t work and make money here then at least they can go back and get some dog.
I don’t get it why they can’t just follow the rules. Would it be so difficult to get work visas for the key people they need to build their factory?

I don’t give a rats behind of people were mad because they were in shackles.
The company, and them have been undercutting American labor. Piss on them.
LOL ... like Americans caught working illegally in South Korea for an American company wouldn't get exactly the same treatment!
