The reason why I chose this sensitive topic...started from this article. Korean Baseball Star Catches Heat Following Racist Remarks Towards American Pitcher

When I read this article, I feel so upset, and I couldn't understand the racist baseball player. In this article, you can see the citation from‍‍‍‍‍ Ryan Sadowski‍‍‍‍‍: //**"Sixty years ago, Korea was a homogeneous society that has advanced faster than any other place in the world in history. **////**It has taken Americans nearly 300 years to reach a level of racial equality"**// (Jeff Liebsch, 2013).

There are lots of good people over the world, they hate the racism. But, there are some racists everywhere... Sadly, South Korea also has those kinds of people. As Mr. Sadowski said, Korea was a homogeneous society. Now there are lots of foreigners in S.Korea, some of them got married with Koreans, and they are living in there. We call these people as a "Multicultural family". Unfortunately, some Koreans don't want to accept a multicultural society.

Here is a video which explains the multicultural situations in S.Korea. media type="youtube" key="SCLLdhHlZvE" width="560" height="315"
