| + | ,scarpe hogan<p>The Mainichi Shimbun's Seoul correspondent Akiko Hiroyama is returning home after a five-year stint here. Putting off seeing her before her departure because I had a busy schedule,magasin Hollister france, I met her at a farewell lunch a few days ago. I was curious to know what her feelings are about her tour of duty in South Korea. She has had special affection for and interest in Korea,ray ban france, to the extent of studying the language at college and dreaming of becoming a correspondent in Seoul. <br><br>What struck her most? She gave an unexpected answer. Her life in Seoul was focused on North Korea, rather than South Korea. "Since the Japanese media are interested mainly in the North Korean nuclear program and refugees, I've watched North Korea more carefully than South Korea and Japan-Korea relations,chaussure louboutin," she said. She often travelled to Beijing to cover the six-party talks. <br><br>The North Korean nuclear issue has a direct bearing on Japan's security as well as being a global security affair. Japan's perceptions of North Korean refugees, though it is of no direct concern,escarpins louboutin pas cher, have changed since Pyongyang admitted its abduction of Japanese citizens. As Japanese society's interest in the workings of North Korea mounted, more people wanted to learn about the situation in the North through refugees from the North. <br><br>It's not only Japan that is so interested in the North. World news consumers want to know more about the North than the South since it is such a closed state in addition to being at the centre of global security fears. <br><br>Recalling my years as a correspondent in the United States,hollister france, North Korean issues often became the top news in American newspapers,Boutique Abercrombie paris, which was seldom the case with issues involving the South. Ordinary citizens immediately recognize North Korean leader Kim Jong-il, who is constantly shown on TV and in the papers, but few recognize the South Korean president. The most famous person on the Korean Peninsula is Kim Jong-il. <br><br>Korea experts across the globe are in many cases North Korea experts. Even economists should be able to comment on North Korea variables. In that sense,nfl jerseys wholesale, South Korea's image and brand value are always influenced by the North. <br><br>That is why I was not surprised at the sad news that South Korea's brand value currently stands at 33rd in the world. I was rather proud that we are able to maintain even that ranking, given that we live next to,chaussures tn requin, and share a name with, an international pariah. <br><br>What was surprising was President Lee Myung-bak's remark that it is more important for a country to be respected and loved in the world,louboutin soldes, and the pledge of the Presidential Council on Nation Branding to forge a Korea that is considerate of others and is loved by others. It is a naive hope at a time when world attention focuses on whether North Korea will launch a missile or a satellite. <br><br>Though it is interesting that the international community does not recognize our national brand to a point compatible with our economic strength,scarpe hogan, the world community always looks at us in linkage with the North. Whether we like it or not,air max, that is the reality. Thus, strategies to promote the country's image should be firmly based on this reality. The government would have sounded more convincing if it had proposed using Kim Jong-il in publicizing our national brand, the way Romania managed to attract overseas tourists and create an interesting national image by mobilizing Count Dracula. <br><br>By Kang In-sun from the Chosun Ilbo's News Desk <br></p>相关的主题文章： | ||
