Race and Korea

[Jacob]

How long did you have to stay in Korea before you twigged on the racism thing?

[Zoupa]

I can barely get the racist vibe in the 1st vid. What's racist in the second one? I dont get it.

[The Brain]

I dunno, if that video is racist, then Swedish Rednex is, too, for mocking the rural South.

Er, except that Rednex capture the soul of America.

[Tonitrus]

Weird, yes.  Racist, nah.

If you're out and about you catch on pretty quick given people's reactions. It's significantly better for whites than blacks, though it's still there.

[Slargos]

First looks like a parody. Is it serious?

[Slargos]

Naw. That's not racist.

Let me clue you back in.

Racist:




Not racist:

I and people I know have been asked questions in complete serious far more ridiculous than that video. They were probably seriously trying to celebrate the diversity of Itaewon, which makes it worse in my opinion. If this what your friends think of you, what about your enemies? 

[Eddie Teach]

Slargos, even that one is questionable. I mean there's nothing wrong with loving watermelon.

You should use your exotic-ness and mystique to score Korean poon.

Exoticness mostly works against you here. I didn't pick the 1950s for nothing when describing the social scene. On the surface at least Korean women are very conservative and most wouldn't touch a foreigner like that. Another problem is most women still live with their parents and have a curfew until they're married.

You AmeriKKKans have simply become inured with PC and so ironically you see racism everywhere.

Maybe they don't make fun of him because he's black, but because he's an American soldier.

DID YOU CONSIDER THAT?

Failing your exoticness, you can always just use your wallet you prude fuck.

[Josquius]

I don't get it.
Why do they have some African dude slowly asking about nam san tower?
And is it just me or does the song start with the guy saying 'Jesus milk'?

No, exoticness mostly works against YOU there.
I have heard Korea is a good place to get girls for western folk...however folk who couldn't get anything at home aren't going to magically turn into chick magnets in Asia. Still have to try a bit.

I know a couple of dozen guys well here. Only one has had a serious korean girlfriend and he was manwhore back home with dozens of notches in his belt. And it still took him six whole months to figure them out and get a date with a Korean. Almost all of the guys I know here have simply given up and just date the foreign girls.  Some of them had great success in Japan but nothing here.
