Joi Ito's blog posts about Japan are similar to my blog posts about Korea, providing personal glimpses into Japan and Korea.  I am thinking about adding a blog category in Korean for my fellow Koreans to read, but I couldn't be too controversial because my father is not exactly anonymous in Korea.  Anyway, its comforting (?!?) to know that Korea is not any more rotten than Japan.  All I knew of Japan before were learned from their movies: samurai, yakuza, anime, and porn (^^!).  Thank you, Ito-san.
