Dokdo Protesters Burn Japanese Flag
It is the summer protest season which means the Dokdo crazies are showing up again:
South Korean university students burned a Japanese flag in Seoul for the second consecutive day on Wednesday in protest of the Tokyo government’s claim to South Korea’s easternmost islets of Dokdo.
Members of the Korean Progressive University Student Union set the Rising Sun Flag, formerly used by the Japanese imperial army, on fire in front of Dongnimmun (independence) Gate in central Seoul in the afternoon after condemning the Japanese government and Tokyo Olympics organizers for claiming Dokdo.

With all of the economic and health concerns lately, this strikes me as a particularly ill-thought out combination of “I get my money from Mommy and Daddy who don’t care how I spend it or whether I even graduate” and “This will make the girls begin to like me”…
OTOH, those white gloves are undoubtedly as fireproof as their demonstration is convincing.
