Jackie Chan Denies He is Anti-Korean

Remember the good old days when Jackie Chan was considered pro-Korean? Well now even the guy that everyone loves to like is now feeling the heat disgruntled Korean pride as Chan is now accused of being anti-Korean:

Jackie Chan hit back at reports he is anti-South Korea, and accused the media of distorting his comments, according to reports.

Speaking at a promotional event in South Korea for his latest movie “The Myth,” Chan said remarks attributed to him about the country’s film industry were incorrect, the Apple Daily newspaper reported Saturday.

“I have lived in Korea for two years … here, no one would believe that I am anti-Korea,” Chan told the paper.

Chan denies he said South Korean stars were feted in the Chinese media, but the same could not be said for Chinese stars in South Korea. He also denies saying the success of South Korean productions was due less to their quality and more to their support from audiences at home.

Could it be that the Korean media fabricated a story to slime Jackie Chan? The Korean media would never do that would they?
