Picture of the Day: Attack of the Paris Hiltons

Girls dressed as Paris Hilton celebrate the Korean airing of MTV reality show "Paris Hilton's My New Best Friends Forever" in Myeong-dong, Seoul on Thursday.

Via Brian in Jeollanam-do who shares this excellent point from the Western Confucian:

Am I supposed to feel proud to see McDonald’s and rap music here in Korea? Instead, I’m doubly ashamed, for my countrymen who export this garbage and for the Koreans who eat it up.

    THeir is plenty of other garbage America exports such as Burger King and Rock and Roll if we are going to be picky.

    Burger King is great, a nice treat when I visit Gwangju.

    They really show a lot of the worst American TV has to offer on Korean TV. Yeah, I'm pissed that American networks and stations come up with this garbage, but I wish Korean MTV and OnStyle wouldn't jump all over it.
