RE: Reasons Why Steemit Can Completely Transform Korean Society // STEEMIT 을 통해보는 한국식 기회
Korean Africans? Wow now I've heard everything :-)
Korea has always had a long history of connecting with one another. We invented one of the strongest predecessors of Facebook, Cyworld. Virtually every Korean person uses the same 3rd-party messaging app, Kakaotalk. Koreans still use our personal form of Google, Naver, to blog and share.
This statement above is why it is so amazing we have a thriving Korean community. If we can be taken on world-wide by Koreans and become one of that family of social media sites and apps, then that is huuuuuuggggge!
Long may it continue :-)

The implications are incredible. 1.5 and 2nd generation kids have always had a hard time connecting back and imagine what could happen if the DMZ is dissolved and Steemit becomes the first social platform to connect families that were separated almost 70 years ago.
Thanks for the comment @cryptogee!
Wow that would be big, however do you see the DMZ being dissolved anytime soon? It seems that Jong Un is determined to keep the Dynasty going. I'm interested on what you and other Koreans feel about China's latest stance towards the North. It seems that perhaps at last they are running out of patience with them.

International friction is running tempers high. The date for opening borders is so fluid at this point but I do know that from the South Korean side, developers are putting a lot of pressure on the government to be able to expand to the North. The building tensions is also inciting potential conflict so we'll see what happens...
Woah!, Expanding into the North, that doesn't sound very peaceful :-(
