Topic - Can you briefly tell us about the history between Korea and Japan? How are relations between the two countries today?
Relations between Korea and Japan go back hundreds and hundreds of years, but important developments in their modern relations took place between 1910 and 1845. During that period, Japan forcibly occupied Korea under its imperialist regime. The sad thing is that Japan has yet to formally apologize for its wartime atrocities, such as the sexual enslavement of Korean women at Japanese military brothels during World War Two. Of course, since the normalization of relations between the two countries in 1970, there have been steps to move towards a future-oriented bilateral relationship. However, there are still some sensitive unresolved issues between Seoul and Tokyo. One issue is the territorial dispute over the Dokdo Islets in the East Sea, which Japan calls the Sea of Japan. Another is the visits by top-ranking Japanese officials to the Yasukuni Shrine, which pays tribute to the war dead, including war criminals.
Expression of the day
They don't stand a chance.
A: Who do you think will win the match today?
B: Are you kidding me? It's the top team against the bottom.
A: Are you saying the Lakers will win 100 percent? -
B: Of course. The other team only has, like, two wins until now. They don't stand a chance.

• Hello, Tim? Hi, it's me, Amy. Is this a bad time to talk?
• Not at all, Amy. How... are you doing?
• Not 100%... Actually, I'm in a mess, Tim. Listen, I've been thinking about you a lot. I think I made a mistake.
• What are you talking about?
• I was mean to you. Because you didn't reply to my text messages fast enough, I was prepared to write you off. What was I thinking?
• Is that the real reason why you dumped me? Because I didn't text you back within 15 minutes?
• Well, I thought you were ignoring me.
• I'd never do that, Amy. I may have been late sending replies, but I always texted you back.

Threats will get North Korea nowhere
President Lee Myung-bak said threats from North Korea will no longer result in more aid and negotiations from the South. Lee was speaking in New York during a meeting with 11 next-generation Korean-American leaders. But he added that he was ready to "start dialogue with the North any time and help the North if it opens its heart and tries to forge mutually beneficial relations" with Seoul. Turning to South Korea, he pledged a second-stage restructuring of the government. "We have to continue to downsize the government. There is a global trend towards privatizing what the private sector can do well."
