static shadows Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Looks like they made a gigantic cultural blunder there, judging by the torrent of angry, horrified comments from Asian fans below the video. The giant Rising Sun Flag at the beginning of the video is considered incredibly offensive in many Asian countries (especially Korea and China), where it is associated with right wing Japanese imperialism and the war atrocities committed under it. It's essentially the Asian equivalent of having a giant spinning swastika. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where have you seen that they have replied? Aww it's a shame anyway. There's always something isn't there?! I'm not sure whether the video quite comes over, though perhaps that's just my mood, but they obviously had fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JessicaSarahS Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 muse @muse 5m Sorry for the mistake re the intro graphics for the Panic Station video. We are fixing it now. We will upload a new version very soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure whether the video quite comes over, though perhaps that's just my mood, but they obviously had fun. Someone posted it in the thread where the video's being discussed, I think it was on facebook or something. Seems so, it's gone now anyway. Night shift in re-editing the video and reuploading, I guess?! Wonder what they'll put in instead if they keep that scene - maybe just a real picture of a rising sun? I can't imagine that being offensive. Yes enjoyed the fun in the video too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarrieB Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 At least they have acted quickly to rectify the issue. No one can complain about that. I still have the video, and I am warming to it. It is starting to make me giggle now. Matt is well into it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bs Posted April 23, 2013 Share Posted April 23, 2013 That was quite possibly the funniest thing I've ever seen. It's like Inception but with layers of WTF-ness instead of dreams! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
