OP, as someone who lives part-time between Japan, Hong Kong and US, I have to tell you that if you're a foreigner, you'll never be 100% accepted no matter where you are in the world.

Granted, the people who are protesting are just a small group of extreme-right-wingists (like the American Tea Party,) or internet trolls. They are not the majority. Since I'm Chinese and I work for a Japanese company with a branch in the US, I face racism and sexism whenever I go to work in Japan. At the same time, while I know Chinese, and grew up mostly in HK, whenever I get send to HK/China/Taiwan for work, I'm seen as a foreigner because of my native-level English. At the same time, when I'm in America and working with potential US companies, I'm seen as a foreigner and they tend to act hesitant around me even though I'm American.

The people who posts these news on the internet in English are mostly trolls too, so you don't need to pay them any mind. My Japanese friends all love Kara and SNSD. Japanese companies recognize that if they don't try to work on an international level, they're going to get out competed by other countries. In this era of internationalization, it would be foolish of them to not accept foreign culture (which they've done since the beginning of Japanese history.)
