“What about the swastika shirt from one of the big chains?”

Sure, why not. Chi Guevara shirts are popular and communism killed many more than Nazis.

What about the swastika shirt from one of the big chains? Not funny to wear a swastika, but as a souvenir? To bad?

I would have bought it! “… they are going to fail miserably in my opinion because these shirts are just plain dumb.” I see how one can think the shirt and the whole idea of seling it at dd is plain dumb. Anyway I definitely would have bought it. Isnt tha just exactly what your brother back home wants? Who would rather go for some Insadong touristy shirt?

That’ll be the day, when protesters start chucking donuts at the American embassy.

Actually that doesn’t sound too bad. Hmm.

Kalani’s got it right: By wasting money printing up those cheap t-shirts, Dunkin’ Donuts earned its Korean credits to be spent on something else. Like when it’s inevitably discovered that donuts are an American plot to make Korean teenagers fat.

Actually don’t you think that even if not one T-shirt sold, it has served its purpose. It shows that Dunkin’ Donuts is supportive of the Dokdo issue — like any good Korean should be. That’s the point of PR…even if the people wouldn’t be caught dead in that eye-sore, they still know that Dunkin’ Donuts is one of the good guys.

I have been to four different Dunkin Donuts over the past few days and every single one had the Dokdo promotion going. Three of them had the big display like you see in the above picture but the Dunkin Donuts in Uijongbu actually only had a small sign in a corner behind the counter that wasn’t very visible. It almost seemed like they were embarrassed to display it.

In the time I spent in the Dunkin Donuts stores, I did not see one person get a t-shirt. I have yet to see anyone even wearing one of these t-shirts out on the streets. Has anyone else? From my limited time in Dunkin Donuts I think this probably turned into a waste of money for them. I’m curious what they are going to do with all the left over Dokdo t-shirts once the promotion ends?

Personally I do not know any Koreans who would be willing to walk around in a “Do You Know?” t-shirt even though they are all die hard Dokdo supporters.
