Trump scolds Korean media for wreaking havoc in Oval Office
By Bob Fredericks June 30, 2017 | 1:09pm | Updated
President Trump doesnt like the Korean media either after they piled into the Oval Office on Friday during his sitdown with South Korean President Moon Jae-in and crashed into a couch, damaged a table and nearly knocked over a lamp.
The White House press pool, including a large contingent of Korean media, was larger than usual, and the Secret Service even had to ask the Koreans to stop running as they entered the room.
But there was a lot of jostling as the Korean journalists, unfamiliar with the Oval Office, worked their way around the two chairs where the presidents were seated to find a good spot to set up.
A sofa got bumped and was moved and a lamp on a nearby table was almost knocked over before White House aide Keith Schiller caught it before it fell.
You are getting worse, an annoyed-looking Trump said to the room of reporters. You knocked over a table.
But then he turned to his South Korean counterpart and said, Its actually a very friendly press, dont let them get you, although we just lost a table.

Chinese, some Koreans, but usually not Japanese...
I found that out when a friend and I were on vacation in Victoria BC. We had been strolling around the streets, and all day we had gotten shoved off the sidewalk by large groups of Asians. We were wearing very heavy backpacks, so we adjusted them to swing loose on side, and the next time a group came along trying to shove us, we swung our backpacks hard into them and knocked them off first.
Sure won’t argue with you there!
I just assumed we were talking about civilized people who act pushy and rudely. Somalians are exempt.
Japan has about 40 % of the population of the US, packed into a land mass the size of California. They figured out a loooong time ago that without manners, there would be no civilization. Thank you.
Hi.
“They will push you overboard on a ship to get to the FRUIT at the buffet!”
Or the crab legs.
Hope you are doing well.

Well done!
Thanks. It wasn’t much, but for two southern girls who were raised to be polite and non-assertive, it was a lot :)
Yep.
Wife and I were walking on that nice path they have around the harbor.
We were the only people on it.
Along comes a Japanese guy and veers towards me.
Nobody else there, and he veers towards me.
I thought that maybe he stumbled or something, so I moved.
A little further down the path and here comes another single Japanese guy.
Same thing happens.
Then I see the third Japanese guy coming.
He gets close and I jump in front of him screaming “Bonzai!”.
I’m 6’3.
He moved.
It’s like a little game they want to play with Americans.
They are kamikrazy.
“Its like a little game they want to play with Americans.”
I believe that that’s true, but I also believe that they just have absolutely no sense of personal space. That’s all fine and well when they’re in Japan, but just as they expect foreigners to do when in Japan, they need to show a little respect for western cultural mores when they come here.
