No matter which way you want to spin this narrative:

  1. American ICE agents put Korean citizens in handcuffs and ankle restraints
  2. multiple people were detained in a single cell, and denied Miranda rights and consular access
  3. the Korean government is taking this seriously
  4. multiple billions of investment and lots of jobs were/are on the line.
  5. talk is in the wind to relocate this investment (and hence the jobs) either to Mexico or Canada

Overstaying a visa in Korea would absolutely not land you the same treatment, but go ahead with your whataboutism. You keep digging that hole 'Mericaints. Eventually you'll make it to Korea.

Hyundai deliberatly endangered the.welfare of their employees

Any company sending employees to the SHITHOLE COUNTRY that is the USA is obviously endangering them.

Fucking QED.

relocate this investment (and hence the jobs) either to Mexico or Canada

Canada would likely welcome this investment, but it will be tricky to choose a site given all our Flatlanders are demented from not seeing Ocean.

So, pick a region with a shoreline, and hope that's enough.
