The least you could do is spell the guy's name right, you know?

Withholding my 5 until then.

A pop star dreaming he's like a fascist dictator. Yeah, I'm really gonna miss THIS guy.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who was creeped out by this period of his career. I could never decide if he really wanted to be a totalitarian dictator or was just using that imagery because the only ones left in the world who didn't consider him a washed up weirdo were people who had until that point lived their lives under the boot heel of just such a dictator.

Everything he hacked up his face, some sculptor went: "Great, not we have to change the fucking statue again."

like the use of a soviet themed intro. but fuck the rest. I'd like to see the soldiers become annoyed and pull down the statue on FOX or something.

Why are they getting so excited over a statue of some Korean dude?
