Lies, dude, sheer lies.

South Korea immigration has literally forced me to travel travel through 3 different airports and to abandon my father, who is over 60 and due to his advanced age had several complicating health issues in light of coronavirus. Meanwhile, South Korean trolls have used an amazing volume of verbal abuse, to validate their country's mandate - that foreigners aren't welcome. When I went to South Korean immigration office i was told repeatedly that my family members being over 60's with a number of health issues is "my personal problem". SO clearly South Koreans have ZERO concern for other ppl thinking of their families and loved ones.

In comparison, Japan has extended every visa including tourist visas. As much as you want to tout Korean superiority, it's clear which country was the most compassionate in times of common struggle.
