The Japanese scored...

62% liked Korea
25% hated Korea
The rest (13%) had no opinion or no feelings of like or dislike towards Korea.

The same was asked to Koreans about Japan.

28& liked Japan
71% hated Japan
Just 1% had no opinion or no particular feelings of like or dislike towards Japan.

Its an interesting statistic but it kinda confirms for me, the tendency for Koreans to be ultra-nationalistic.

i see you love to compare countries. you said that japan has bigger population than korea that makes j-pop more popular and implying it is better. you said that japan has bigger economy than korea and china that makes j-pop more popular and implying it is better. now you compare that japan is better sourced from a television survey that has a tendency of sensationalization. what is the point of this? you love japan so much that you should become a japanese.

i do not think you compare countries all day. no person would thinks every country is black and white unless you were a racist. maybe it is convenient to have black and white distinctions to all countries. that is if you were studying international relations and had personal biases.
