It's still common in popular media, there was a 2021 KDrama series ( Beyond Evil ) where they reveal who are all the bad guys early with one tell, they were the only ones who ate Japanese food. A 2018 series Mr Sunshine about the lead up to the Japanese occupation generated a bit of controversy because one character that adopted Japanese customs was portrayed sympathetically and they changed the story as the episodes aired to respond.
- decafninja 5y agoI am actually surprised there is a small (tiny?) but still surprising number of people that feel Japan is a real, direct, short-to-medium term military threat to Korea, as in the shooting war kind. This is a sentiment I see a lot in the Korea subreddit, but that might just be overly "nationalistic" "Koreaboos" - who may even be mostly Korean-Americans that have rarely set foot in Korea, or not even ethnically Korean. The sentiment is not non-existent in Korea itself too though. In fact, in some discussions of recent military developments by the RoK (plans for a aircraft carrier, SLBMs, F-35 and/or KF-X fighters, etc.) it's often touted by these folks that they are just as meant to be pointed towards Japan as they are to North Korea or China.
