I remember quite vividly well to this day it was a white boy fluent in Japanese who told the Chinese and Taiwanese at this Japanese restaurant in Los Angeles, that the Japanese owner and Japanese customers inside were complaining about not wanting to eat or see Chinese in the restaurant. The white boy walked out and we followed suit.
With this kind of mentality, it is easy to understand why Chinese and Koreans still harbor suspicious feelings about Japanese because of their Nazi-like complex. One Korean told me the reason why Koreans open a lot of sushi restaurants in Los Angeles is because they feel more comfortable eating at a Japanese restaurant owned by Koreans. No discrimination or bad service.
Those Japones can't be racist for too long because their day in the sun won't be too long. They ain't fit to lead (morally).
I don't think that's a fair assessment. Actually, I have never heard of a Japanese-owned restaurant discriminating against patrons due their ethnicity.
On the other hand, I have heard countless number of horror stories about foreigners, Asians and non-Asians alike, being treated so rudely by Koreans at Korean restaurants and made to feel as if they were unwelcome and almost like criminals. All you have to do is go to www.yelp.com and look at any review of a Korean restaurant in K-town made by a non-Korean. All of them say the same message...Korean restaurants are good only for Koreans. If you are not Korean, they they treat you like a criminal.
Korean racism is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Japanese racism in my opinion.
