first episode of "Cobra Kai," Season 5, makes Koreans the villains!

Now we're gettin' into it! Going back to the lore established in "The Karate Kid: Part III," we delve into the nasty history of John Kreese and Terry Silver, who both learned the Korean martial art of Tang Soo Do (dangsudo) from a ruthless master who taught his students to fight without honor via deception. Chozen explains all of this to Daniel. How will Korean viewers feel about a shadowy Korean villain and his ghostly influence? I haven't checked around yet for online reactions, but I will. This could get—as they say these days—spicy.
