Korean wave's influence is most visible in China, Japan and Southeast Asia, spreading to India,[6] the Middle East,[7] Central Asia,[8] Iran,[9] Israel,[10] Turkey[11] and Russia.[11] The Korean wave is rapidly expanding beyond Asia through the internet and has a substantial presence in North, Central and South America, particularly in Chile, Mexico and Argentina,[12] and is increasingly becoming popular in the United States.[13] It is also gaining momentum in Eastern Europe and Scandinavia, led by Hungary[14] and Norway.[15] It is gathering positive interest in North Africa, attracting a sizable niche audience in Egypt.[16] Currently, the Korean wave is starting to hit the shores of the United Kingdom[17][18] and Australia.[
Ammy EWSIS on 19 Nov 09It seems as if people are using the Mayan's predictions as an excuse to declare the end of the world, which is on December 21, 2012. Lately, I've been doing a lot of research on 2012, after watching the movie, and what I've dug out was that the Mayans didn't say anything about the end of the world. Their predictions simply stated that it December 21, 2012 was the end of their calender. The Mayans, who have been accurate in their past predictions, believe strongly on the the worlds cycle. They beileve that just like any other calender, after one ends, another begins. Society has been brain washed by media's attempt to brain wash us by using Mayan predictions and scrambling them up to scare us. I'm actually very glad that I did research, or else I would've fallen into the same category as everyone else.
