Koreans = Moral Dignity?

This is Emma Watson, well known as her role as Hermione Granger in the Harry Potter movies.

So what about her?

I was reading an editorial at Joongang Daily, a Korean newspaper which also has an English counterpart, mainly for Koreans that want to improve their English. But I also occasionally skim it for interesting articles.

This editorial commented on the rumor of the 19-year old actress that she was dating Russian Roman Abramovich, the billionaire oil magnate and owner of Chelsea Football Club. He commented that it “saddened Harry Potter fans.”

Then he went to go on to talk about “trophy wives” – basically gold diggers who marry older, richer men for their money.

Here’s an excerpt:

Since the 20th century, celebrities were naturally loved as the new “trophies.” One major example is when former Playboy model Anna Nicole Smith married oil magnate Howard Marshall in 1994 when she was 26 and he was 89.

During the U.S. presidential election in 2008, Republican candidate Fred Thompson was a subject of great discussion because his wife is 24 years his junior.

It is hard to find such an example in Korea, but social leaders who marry trophy wives are not rare in other Asian countries such as China and Japan.

This is probably because of the social atmosphere that demands moral dignity together with material success.

This last part of the excerpt caught my eye. No, not the part that says material success. That, I know about. But the part about moral dignity… moral dignity?!?!?!?!?

Probably one of the most ridiculous things that I’ve heard all year.
