Instead of taking side, people should calm him down. Until he is sure hwat is going on, don't be so hasty in your judgement. One time I was driving with an recently arrived oriental friend looking for a friend's house in Alabama. A cop car pulled side by side with us. To be friendly, my oriental friend try explain to the cops the situation by yelling "get lost!". As we got pulled over, it was hard to convince the cops that he meant "we got lost!".

Koreans have a master plan to take over the world in all facets of society, politically, financially, socially, culturally, classes, education, language. Beware ya'll.

<------ Korean & Genius.

From personal experience and growing up around mostly Koreans, I have come to 5 points of observations that can be summed up in this 5 point conclusion.

1. Koreans love to speak very loud and very harsh, even when it is not appropriate. I guess it's just the languagae and the tone that makes them sound like their arguing/fighting. Please, there is a place to raise your voice and a place when you can just talk at a normal tone. YOU DO NOT NEED TO YELL!!!
2. Koreans have an hierachy issue in which the elders deserve all the respect. That is stright up bullsh*t in my opinion. When I was in high school, I have seen my friends (17-18 years of age) bow down and say some wierd ass phrase which is associated with bowing down. (ahn-nah-se-yoh) to other koreans even if those other koreans are only a couple months older than they are. I understand if its an "real" elder such as parents or grandparents, but to other peers around your age is just ridiculous. STOP THE HIERACHY BULLSH*T!!!
3. Korean guys are very chauvinistic toward women and have that fugged up "thug mentality" directed toward other guys. I have personally witnessed a korean guy straight up b*tch and yell at his girlfriend inside a restuarant while they were eating. The gf was just crying and bawling big time, and the guy kept on yelling at her and making it worse. (pathetic behavior, huh). I have also seen countless meaningless fights start b/c one guy "accidently" looked at a korean guy. And if and when their eyes met, it was rumble time b/c korean guys do not like random guys making eye contact with them. This kind of stoopid ass behavior is both childish and moronic. STOP ALL THIS NONSENSE!
4. Korean girls...sheesh...I can go on for pages. But i'll just hit the main points with them.
A. materialistic
B. Drama-queens
C. b*tich to the 10th power
D. Is it me or do all korean girls get that wierd-ass eyelid surgery.
E. majority of korean girls dress the same, talk the same, and look the same. CLONES!
F. love to eat with their mouth open, and talk at the same time
G. needs to smoke to fit in with their girlfriends
H. All wear those little prada backpacks. SO PLAYED OUT!!!!
5. Oh yea, one more thing, All koreans smoke!!!!!! I think they think that if they don't smoke, they'll be outkasts of the korean community...hahahhaha

Ok, thats about it for now...just some personal observations that i wanted to share with you. Please add anything else that I have missed. I do not dislike koreans or am I bitter towrd them. Most of my friends are of korean ethnicity and they know how i feel about these conclusions......i just thought this would be appropriate for this thread. Enjoy!!!!

I just went to a Korean store with my Korean girlfriend. She is close with the family that runs the store.

My GF always tells me how delicate our relationship is, due to the fact that I am a White Jewish guy. Her cousin even cussed me out last weekend for dating her.

I know absolutely no Korean, and my GF never clues me in to the social intricacies of Korean culture.

But when we went into the store she bowed and spoke exclusively in Korean the entire time. She never introduced me. Never even motioned towards me.

The store owners brought us some candy flavored yogurt which I drank and said thank you twice for.

Then I bought about 20 dollars worth of stuff, and said thank you again.


Then my GF bowed and they shared more Korean with each other.

I started to walk out the door because I thought the conversation was ending with my GF's bow and final exchange of words.

But as I am opening the door to leave, she sais , in a loud enough voice for everyone to hear, "say Good-Bye". I know it doesn't sound like much, but her tone was very demeaning.

I stuttered a "Good-Bye" and ducked out feeling kinda embarrased.

I told my GF that I didnt appreciate the way she handled that situation. That I was uncomfortable to begin with ,and her ignoring me and then talking to me like a child just made it even worse.

She got mad and now she wont talk to me.



I know you don't want to hear this, but my sincere advice is to get out. I used to think that it wouldn't matter what background or race the people I date are from, and I said that I don't care about those things, but as you grow older sometimes you realize that unless you're ready to fight a battle every day it really pays to stick with your own.

This isn't true in all cases though, if you have two people of different backgrounds but both are very open-minded and ready to give up a little of their culture and make some sacrifices then it can work. However your girlfriend is clearly not willing to do that, even though I think you are willing to do so.

Dump her!

That's absolutely not right that she demean you in such a manner. It shows how she'll be as the relationship continues.

While you can put her in her place and scold her to submission, it'll only be TEMPORARY, ......soon she'll be up to her old ways. It'll make you're life too stressful.

Dumping such problematic g'friends is the ONLY way.

Good luck!

For all you people who commented on how arrogant koreans are....girls are drama queens...etc.....its all true.
I'm korean.......but I don't have that mentality that I'm superior than the women I am with.......have that "thug" mentality...etc.


As with all races there are the "typical" Koreans....Chinese.....whatever.......
The point is......don't generalize one group of people just because thats what you see most of the time. I don't follow all that korean culture stuff......doesn't mean I hate it.....

As for the one who started the thread.....dump that bitch.......I hate korean girls like that.......In fact I get really embarrassed when I'm at a place and I see a bunch of Koreans acting like the stereotypical koreans...loud, speaking only korean, looking down at others...etc.......

I didn't date any korean girls until I found one who has the same mentality as me....grew up here in the U.S.....and doesn't have the "typical" korean girl traits.........

Did her shop owner speak English?

One of my ex's mom and sister would speak all in Spanish. She did not tell them that I understood Spanish. I let them talk the whole time in Spanish, then as I was telling everyone goodbye, thanked them for their hospitality and said that I looked forward to meeting them, all in perfect Spanish. I've never seen a grown woman blush so hard in my life. I could hear the mom yelling at my g/f through the closed door after I left.

It's rude for them to not speak in English if they can, but hate to say this but as has been pointed out before most elder Koreans could care less. The least your gf could have done was translated...Kick + Her = To Curb

Pull your pants off and throw them on the floor.
Then tell her to put them on. And if she says "They are too big
for me". Tell her to remember that the next time she tries to
wear the pants in your relationship

yes, i am korean, do you have a problem with that?

while i've met my share of arrogant koreans, i've also met many people of all colors that are arrogant as well. your statement was just utter BS and could possibly be considered a racist comment. what's the difference between what you said and some of these phrases:

jewish people are cheap and pushy.
black people are uneducated and smelly.
irish people are alcoholics and love their potatoes.

i myself am not fond of the older generation koreans because many are arrogant, but when some fool has a ridiculous observation and applies it to all the people of a race, it's rather upsetting.

edit: i surely hope you're a teenager or even a young adult, if you're not, i feel sorry for you. a responsible adult would not say something so irresponsible and ignorant.

EXTREMELY typical behavior for a girl - teenager all the way up to their mid-late twenties.

At least she apologized - most won't even do that. Most would make YOU apologize in that situation.
