@houfu@kopiti.am In Korea, it's actually the opposite. While we're also pushed to learn English in school, it's extremely rare to use it in daily life before getting a job. Some professions are heavily exposed to English, but many don't require it at all. Meanwhile, English proficiency also functions as a sort of class marker in Korea, so many Koreans live with a sense of shame about their English skills.

@hongminhee @houfu I was much more sensitive to language issues when I was a teenager. Before the College Entrance Examination, graduates admitted to a Shenzhen-based, trendy university launched a campaign at my high school. A chapter of their verbose words boasts ‘English is our native language’ and how they proudly cope with Korean professors in English. In the answer session, I screamed my question in English and added ‘I think it is respectful to speak the native language of opponents. ’

@hongminhee To be fair, I appreciate that you pointed out each lingua franca, not confined to English, contains imperialism. In that incident, my attitude towards dear Shenzhen laureates is no more than 五十步笑百步.

@badrihippo@fosstodon.org Yeah, I was also rooting for NewJeans to go independent, but well, what can you do if it's legally impossible. Still, it's a relief they didn't end up splitting up.

@mcc there's a bit here and there about how the robots can have sensory integration with their bodies beyond the capabilities of their sensorium, and that it is psychosomatic, but much in the same way as the word psychosomatic is thrown around in real life, it's still real to the individual experiencing it. so, she might just be cold.
