Talk:Korean nationalism

message: Wow, you know this is going to be bad when the paragraph starts with editorializing like "In a Cinderella story, after five consecutive World Cups without a single win, the South Korean national soccer team made it to the semifinals with an improbable series of triumphs in 2002". After unreferenced but AGF introduction, we get two sentences about how happy Koreans were and that this was related to " national pride, identity, and confidence". Well, frankly, I cannot imagine any nation that wouldn't get at least moderately happy about this, and where such feeling couldn't be tied to the vaguely described "national pride, identity, and confidence". References fail of course, as the only good one is to Gi-Wook Shin book, with no page, but I was able to trace it to page 1 (and few more in that book): . The sentence on "national pride, identity, and confidence" is pretty much directly copypasted from it, but putting that aside, the main problem with that section is it takes a tiny example (2002 FIFA) and turns it into something big, totally undue for this article (about Korean nationalism). Again, I will repeat: all nations would celebrate winning an important FIFA match. Nothing in Shin's book suggests this is an important example of Korean nationalism. I couldn't even figure out how to use this example here in a non-trivial way. I suggest removal, as I believe this making an entire paragraph of a pretty normal behavior found in many if not all nations is totally undue and irrelevant (off-topic) to this article. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 11:23, 25 January 2017 (UTC)
