F-ck Zapan! (Video)
Time for another update on the ongoing YouTube war between Japanese and Korean netizens! This video, freshly uploaded by a Japanese YouTube user on January 28th, takes the Korean rap song “F-ck Zapan” and combines it with disgusting images of Korean anti-Japan/US hatred and ultranationalism:
The song in the video was allegedly created by Korean rap group DJ Doc, and it was a number one hit in South Korea back in 1999 [more details and English lyrics can be found at Mutantfrog]. Some of you might recognize DJ Doc from my update about the origin of DJ Ozma’s “Age Age Everynight.” Anyone think that DJ Ozma is planning to release a Japanese version of “F-ck Zapan”? I’m sure that Japanese music fans would love to hear the lyrics about their “mouse dicks” and Korea using their country as a toilet.

Some people have nothing better to do. Number 1 hit? Sad.

There are similar Chinese, Korean and Japanese characters all over youtube. But, I have to say I was disgusted by those youngsters stepping on our flag. I have friends stationed in South Korea, one of them had to chase some protesters away last year.

i don’t get one thing. who edited this an anti-japanese video, why did he put the original japanese products next to the korean copies? where is the nationalistic feeling in copying japanese products, he should be proud if japan copied korean products and not the other way around. can someone explain it?

cas: I believe the purpose of the video is to show the world the racism and nationalist hatred spewing from Korea, as well as the shameful practice of Korean companies copying Japanese/Foreign products.
all i have to say is wow…to the point that you know it’s so much hatred you can just say wow that was racist

“If there are any chink flags in Korea.”?
Our flag has 50 stars, and 13 stripes, and it can be found all over the places in South Korea.

Congratulations! Blatant propoganda apaprently makes a quality blog site.
In any case, I actually heard this song back in the late 90s in South Korea, and it is not by DJ DOC. It was actually produced by some underground band that I had never heard of. And no, it was never “number 1″ on the charts. It wasn’t even popular.

Mutantfrog wrote that it was a number 1 hit, and I can’t find a site that confirms it was not DJ Doc. Could you please give me a link that states the song is not by DJ Doc, and that it was unpopular, so I can correct this post and link to a source?
I have south korean friends and i am a japanese-brazilian (3rd generation, sansei). I regret this song as I regret all kind of similar manifestations that I can see in Asia. From China, Japan, South Korea, etc.
It’s a sad song with nothing to contribute to both countries.

(Off topic) James, do you perceive Japanprobe as “anti-Japanese”? Because the following comment bought my attention to this question:(it is in Japanese, if you can read it) “情報をありがとうございます。
この『日本探索』は、反日丸出しのサイトで出入り無用ですね。
やるのは、サイト管理者がJoelのDocs-that-inspireのように
中立のところでやりましょう。” This comment was found here: http://nf.ch-sakura.jp/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?topic_id=1764&forum=1&viewmode=flat&order=ASC&start=270

FYI, the Korean anti-Japanese epithet “JJokpari” can be roughly translated into English as “peg leg,” referring to the clicking sound of the traditional Japanese wooden sandals.

i have no links but like roppongi said, the song is not from dj doc and it was never a hit, certainly not a no. 1 hit in korea. some koreans thought it was dj doc, but it was from some underground band.

I’m sure there are people out there and see my site as “anti-Japanese/反日,” and they’re entitled to believe anything they want. I also get plenty of comments that claim I am posting right-wing Japanese propaganda (there’s one above). I actually had to ban a commenter from this site after he continually posted trollish comments accusing me of working for a right-wing thinktank or having some sort of “wingnut” financial backers. If they bothered to read more than one post on my site, they’d see that the content on this site cannot be simply classified into “anti-Japanese” or “pro-Japanese.” There’s just no pleasing some people.
Katz: No more racial slurs, please. Referring to Chinese people as “chinks” does not advance discussion in any manner. This is a warning.
James,
Keep up the good work.

You think if they put all the energy they put into hating on Japan and America, they could probably reunite their own country.

actually, i believe a better translation would be “split foot” which referred to the large space many Japanese have/had between the first and second digits of their foot due to wearing geta or tabi. i’ve seen the word in korean translations of the bible used in reference to cloven footed animals (pigs, et al).

“Also, it really isnt a surprise that Koreans are pretty much notorious for always resorting to profanity and racial epitets (chink, jap, etc) on internet sites whereas other nationalities remain very rational, mature and polite. It goes to show you the low level of class of Korean culture. “
Oh, that’s nice, Respond to one troll’s racist slur with a blanket negative generalization of millions of people.

“I’ve noticed that on the internet and blogsphere, the only negative and offensive comments made about Japan are from Koreans, KA kyopos, or Chinese, or Koreans posing as other nationalities (a very common and typical Korean practice). “
Well, that makes sense since Koreans, more than any other nationality including the Chinese, are bred to hate Japan. Depictions of Japanese in Korean children’s books are apalling.
“However, on the other hand, I have noticed that negative comments and criticism of Korean overwhelmingly comes from non-Japanese foreigners, mostly westerners from North America and Europe. Also included are other non-Korean Asians such as SE Asians, Japanese, Taiwanese and people from other parts of the world.”
That is true for English-medium websites. However, there are Japanese websites like this one (http://blog.goo.ne.jp/pandiani/ ) whose sole purpose is post negative content about Korea. I suspect these websites are a reaction to Korean public hatred of Japan. Hate begets hate, and hate harms most the person who harbors it.
