racist hollister models

http://shine.yahoo.com/fashion/hollister-models-post-racist-photos-south-korea-store-190400183.html





Hollister models were fired after make fun and making racist comments about Asians. the "life guard" models got into trouble for some racist photos and how they were acting at a recent store-opening in Yeouido, South Korea. 
The models got into trouble for making "slanty eyes" while taking pictures at a local tourist attraction, Royal Gueongbokkung Palace and one put these pictures on his twitter account. there was another model who put up his middle finger while taking pictures with the locals. this behavior was then reported on the blog called the Koreabang. 
After reading this, a lot of people were offended and returned the merchandise back to Hollister. i really don't blame them, why would they buy the merchandise from workers who were disrespecting their culture. the models who work at that Hollister should be more respectful to the people who are living in that country. People should be more considerate of other peoples cultures.
