I think Americans aren't looked at as seriously because Koreans think it's only temporary (they aren't living there permanently, even with visas). And the stereotypes go both ways, their ideas of what an American is, is the same as an American who travels and wants to date because of K-dramas. Korea is still very much an homogeneous country, so most of their ideas on foreigners in general comes from media.

Those westerner guys in the past decades who flocked Asia only to hook up and get them impregnated then leave them didn't help either. Here in this "particular" Asian country, Asian-Americans who grew up in the states and went there to visit their families or whatever, are often described as "too liberated", and often frowned upon for their "very American behavior" and ill-mannered way of speaking to elders and stuff like that. .

I took a language course at Seoul National University and I know how their teachers categorize students from western countries and underdeveloped countries. I was so disheartened that I left the course in the middle. Although, I was so hurt but I have a message for all people around the world who have or still are facing discrimination, looked down at just for being born in an underdeveloped country. If anyone thinks they are superior, this thing only exists in a box which is their mind. It has no reality outside. If someone discriminates or uses hateful words, it shows their own low shallow self. Keep in mind no matter how hard the wind blows, mountains are never moved by it. Be happy and strong for who you are, not because what they think you are.

@mchjsosde 3 года назад

I actually saw a video of a black girl who was mistaken for a prostitute in one of her many trips to Korea. For some Korean guys, that may be partly where the misconception is coming from. Many Korean guys go to brothels during their mandatory army time and it is quite common for human traffickers to trap women into prostitution in foreign countries. The way black women are treated in porn or popular media (not too different tbh) wouldn't help either.

And if you want to be actually truth I will say that tomorrow on rap versus hip hop. Hip Hop was a structure of where were you able to have a voice and speak our minds or try to send a message not all hip-hop is ratchet or vulgar however there are some that are actually of empowerment of change of x y and z. But again only the ones that are suitable for others AKA white supremacy those are the ones that get shown the most versus those that actually do send a message get silenced

Both Korean guys I dated while I studied in Korea were particular about showering often and also were both confused about getting std tests. I was like...we are not hooking up if you're not getting tested. It was definitely surprising from my perspective. One guy did actually listen to me and finally understood my point of view on that so that was nice at least. I heard that Korean couples shower before having sex which is interesting. Not sure how true it was, but the showering thing made more sense after hearing that.

love the way the girl from NY talks with her hands haha. Sorry to hear she had a crazy for a boyfriend. What the guy from Chicago said is true, higher standards and more judgemental. My confidence and self-esteem recovered and got better when I started dating outside of my race and also when I lived abroad. There is certain casualness to pointing out how someone looks that day, what they're wearing, skin troubles, etc. Koreans aren't the only one to do this, but it has felt like it is one of the main things people do.

Most Korean women are not rude at all, they don't hide their true intention to just have some fun time. In the past days Korean women couldn't have chance to take higher education like going university and learn language, that luxury was only for men. But now most girls go to university and they are well educated and have manner. Also they are getting to make their careers, women are more independent in the financial way, still get paid 2 of 3 comparing with male workers but they're trying. In opposite, many men are likely to get more assertive in the way they make relationship with women and men both. As many men still expect their partners being submissive, and have control on their relationship with their dudes too, they often bluff about numbers of women they slept with. I'm talking in general, not everyone is like this.

Most Koreans I know have zero encounter or relationship with foreigners. Alot of Koreans you will encounter are certain types of people. They are either people who just wants to date a foreigner, people who are already very international, or people who wanna practice from you. Ofc there are others but alot of times it is very difficult for foreigners to get a grasp of the idea of average koreans. It takes alot for foreigners to penetrate into the culture through bad streotypes and ingenuinity put upon the foreign people. These people who were interviewed probably had to manage so many tough moments and disapointments. I hope it turns out rewarding and fulfilling. Koreans have alot to offer too.

I am living in other country as an international student, and I can literally say that it is very common in many countries when local ppl meet you to ask you some verrry private and rude questions. It may hurt you and your feelings but YOU HAVE TO get used to it. I also talked to my friends about this issue but they considered this manner as a way to show their excitement of seeing foreigners. 🙄 But actually it’s not. I still don’t know how to react to these actions but i just learned how to keep my eyes and ears close whenever someone trying to offend me. Sometimes i cry just because I cannot defend myself. I try to keep my tears till I arrive home. On the other hand, if you want to get used to such situations it is better for you to live or work somewhere there are many foreigners similar to you :) or make alot of foreign friends. Keep in mind that not all ppl are similar to one another they may not get offended after seeing how their korean friends treat. It depends on how individuals come from and their personalities.

@sandragiant777 Год назад

You need better friends - ones who have decent principles, standards and boundaries. Asking if someone is married/single/has children is one thing - whether that is seen as rude to ask to a stranger can differ among cultures. But a man asking sexual questions to a woman he has just met is rude and unacceptable in EVERY culture on planet earth.

This was a great edit/mix of views and experiences! I liked the woman's opinion that, despite or perhaps because of the forced awareness of cultural differences, some relationships and communication can be strengthened. The points about fetishization were a good counter example -- just like some Korean guys could be inappropriate and not see the woman as an individual, I'm in the US and have known guys here who fetishized certain Asian women. In all these cases, it would be such a small but beneficial step to pause and ask them or check oneself with, "Wait, would this be something I'd say to someone NOT of XYZ culture or race?" Those are the easy "Don't be a jerk" lessons. The more difficult lessons are where one culture's idea of acceptable good behavior ends up being some degree of unacceptable in another, despite a person trying their sincere best. In my experience, that's been much easier to get blindsided/surprised by, and cause unexpected problems.
