Confirmation of Petition

Apparently the rumors about a petition in Korea to cancel the Hetalia anime are true:

No plans to cancel it as of yet. Interestingly enough, there were never plans for Korea to be in the anime.

Actually, the links in the ANN article are more complete that the two links listed above. The second link above is the edited version of the newspaper article that is missing the statement from the Hetalia anime's television station. That's why people here erroneously thought that the station didn't make a statement about Korea's planned omission, when it did.
