I agree my friends. Sung Shi Kyung is, in my opinion, one of the best entertainers that Korea has procured. It’s incredibly unfortunate that his peers in the business feel that it is beneath them to attempt to get opinions (and rather educated ones) to the public. Although I agree with everything he said, I also understand where the other guys are coming from. That said, it is good he feels it important to get his minority-laced opinion out there to the public. I am incredibly proud of him, and hope that his time in the military does not change him.
We’ll be looking forward for when our little king comes back to us to throw more political upheaval into the minds of this next generation.

gawd, i did not realize Kang Ho-Dong was so uneducated… well what can i say he’s a wrestler, and probably got one too many hits in the head.

more people especially entertainers since they are the people who viewers stalk/care about the most (and listen to) should be like Sung Shi-Kyung.

Wow, he is so true to his words. I never realized how important this issue was until i watched it but people care WAAY too much about entertainers like singers and actors. Like, especially in korea, look at those creepy fans who gather in masses just to see a GLIMPSE of a singer… I mean more people should be paying attention to what goes on with the government as much as they pay attention to singers, actors, comedians etc. That’s why I like America, we are educated about social issues at school… well at my school in California does. I think the problem is that in Korea the schools only teach in a way that memorization is the key, rather than creativity and “thinking outside of the box”. But ignorance is a problem in practically the whole world. I guess I can count many people who are making efforts to erase ignorance, so maybe in the future things will change. However, although ignorance is bliss, it transforms into something corrupt when there are “secrets”. Where there are FEW who know alot of things and MANY who know very little about the world around them. Which is why ignorance is unacceptable based on the conditions of the world today. whew, i got all fired up after Sung Shi Kyung’s speech. thanks if you read ALL of my comment, otherwise… you suck! JUST KIDDING. Well bye bye

Oh yes, and may I add that he taught himself English and French, and now has almost PERFECT pronunciation in BOTH!

I completely agree. I’ve been a Sung Shi Kyung fan for a loooong time now, but only recently had I found out that he was so intelligent. But I also learned that other celebrities often think of him as a cocky jerk, a know-it-all… They also say he’s feminine, which makes me angry. How about you go educate yourself instead of making fun of him? Seriously, it’s annoying how, just because they are not at his level, they resort to making fun of him…It’s sad, and people should realize how smart he is… Sung Shi Kyung is truly one of my favorites; he’s not just there for his looks. He actually has talent (his vocals) AND he’s smart. Can’t get any better than that!

*Should also check out the recent episode of 상상플러스 (Sang Sang Plus) where he came on with Alex from Clazziquai… They also made fun of him, although in a more playful way… (But that doesn’t make it OK, of course…)*
