Shamed Gamblers? I Don’t Think So

Oh My News’ latest article from Hong Euntaek who travels around America and writes stories about what a bad place America is has chosen now to write about America’s casinos. He doesn’t like the casino culture in America and is also concerned about the amount of Asians that gamble at these establishments. However, when I read this paragraph I had to laugh:

Casinos in Korea have been available solely for foreign tourists or American military personnel. Korean celebrities who sneak into casinos in American military compounds are often caught by photographers and subject to public humiliation. So they would rather head for a safe casino in the U.S. if they have time. At a glance, I’d say that more than half the patrons in the Pechanga casino hall were Asians. It was strange to hear people speaking in Korean, like “The cards are not good,” or “Give it up.”

Why should the celebrities feel shamed? Regular Koreans are doing the same thing. Go to any American military base and the areas set a side for gambling are filled with Korean nationals, not mention the golf courses as well.
