Heung-min Son: I have been racially abused in England

Well the racism against Japanese or Chinese isn't really racism. That is historical animosity. The real racism is against South-East Asians, or South Asians, Middle Easterners that come to work in South Korea. We really treat them like shit. Yet we revere white people (as you very well known). The root cause goes beyond racism even, we have a hierarchical mentality that is hard-wired in us and we apply it to every, fucking, thing. It is almost an instinct for us to rank and discriminate accordingly. I am sure you know, we rank everything. I am not sure whether we can even THINK about anything without ranking it. This really is a problem. It weighs everyone down. I think it makes Korean profoundly less happy than we can be.
