How to find kind Korean boyfriend

Why is skin color so important to Koreans? Do you think incorporating more multicultural people in movies and dramas will change views about other cultures?

[@haejeegwon9774]

@@elangbam3115 There is a famous KZbinr named Megan Moon. I think she said something similar. Most unfortunate experiences are caused by wrong places and people. For example, don't expect to meet a good person at a club or a specific chat application. Such a place is not a place to meet reliable people in Korea. The most common way to meet someone in Korea is a blind date (sogae-ting). Because the person introduced by a close friend is basically reliable and can meet responsibly. Of course, life is not known. There are many international couples in Korea these days. Basically, we have to be careful about meeting people from any country, but we need a lot of courage and confidence wisdom.

Lord Jesus Christ is coming back everyone, please don’t worship celebrities and entertainment, focus on Him alone. I promise there’s more to life than money, partying, homosexuality and music. Hell is real, repent from sinning confess your sins and ask God to forgive you, I know He will if you’re sincere. Anyone who thinks the Name of Lord Jesus Christ is a joke, boldly mocks and scorns Him or takes pleasure in people who do is in for a big unpleasant surprise on judgement day IF they don’t repent and follow Lord Jesus Christ. Hell is very hot, people please repent! In the mighty name of Lord Jesus Christ, Amen 🙏💪✝️💜❤️✝️! Idolatry such as, Islam, Catholicism, Sangomaism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Santa Clausism, Confucianism, New Age, Science, Evolution, halloweenism, Harry Potterism, Politics, Donald Trumpism, Easter Bunnyism and other religions/faiths that are outside Biblical Christianity lead to hell! Don’t believe them, believe the Almighty God the Father of Lord Jesus Christ, who begot Him. Our Creator, The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob is mighty, He doesn’t need a woman to beget a son, He is God. I choose to put my faith in a God who can do anything and everything, a God who has unlimited and infinite power to beget! So, it’s time to confess that Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord and to believe that He died and rose from the grave after three days and you shall be saved if you only obey Him by praying, worshipping, praising, reading the Bible and living holy and righteously according to the Bible. You have to endure until the end, carry your cross daily and build your relationship with God by following Lord Jesus daily until the end. You must never renounce your faith in The Lord Jesus Christ, there’s hell awaiting those who reject/deny Lord Jesus Christ and those who continue living sinfully, even the Christians who don’t want to repent will face the same fate, so please repent beloved people, in Lord Jesus Christ’s mighty and precious Name, Amen.

I'm Korean and I hate racism. I never discriminate and mock foreigners regardless of their races. It is so sad that there are some foreigners who experienced racism in S.Korea. It is a huge shame and people must stop hating. We all live in a same planet and share emotions as a human being. I wish the foreigners who live in S.Korea had great times. I welcome you guys :)

[@iamhardwell2844]

racism is everywhere so you dont have to apologize

[@iparken]

Most Koreans say they never discriminate against foreigners on a survey as you, but sadly it's different in real life. Many don't realize that they do. It's because Korea is one of the most homogeneous countries in the world. That's why we have to keep this in mind.

[@NoahBodze]

You will regret letting too many Africans into your country. I am American. Look what they did to Detroit, Cleveland, Baltimore, New Orleans, St. Louis and Chicago. These cities were entirely built by white people to be some of the most wealthy cities in history but after a migration from the south they became murder dens. Black males commit 85% of America's shootings. Do not believe what you see on TV.

Sorry, this is going to be a novel, as I returned home from Korea last week and forgot to provide an update as promised! I had an awesome time there visiting friends and being a tourist BUT I'd recommend learning basic Korean because most people don't speak English, even in Seoul. I was travelling on my own to Gwangju/Sejeong and then Busan when a train derailed the night before, so there were lots of delays. None of the announcements were in English so I had to ask for help with understanding. The men and older women were helpful even though they spoke little/no English, but the younger females (mid-20s?) generally brushed me off. I stayed in six hotels while there, and the service was great at all but one of them. That was probably the only time that I thought it was because of my ethnicity, but it also could've been because I was a female (I was served by an older male). While at the subway stations a couple of people asked me if I was from Vietnam or Singapore, so maybe I was viewed as someone from another Asian country as opposed to a New Zealand Samoan. Whenever I spoke a few people would stare at me, particularly in Daejeon and Gwangju (not popular tourist destinations). Overall, I didn't feel discriminated against because of my race but I was with my Korean friends a lot of the time so it made a difference in my experiences. Either way, I really enjoyed it there and I'll return to Korea in the future!🇳🇿🇰🇷😊

This was a very enlightening but not surprising video. Unfortunately racism is everywhere. I always feel like it’s the other person’s issue not mine and as long as there is no physicality to the situation I don’t pay much mind to it . However, if the opportunity presents itself to have an open discussion, then I will use it. Racism is usually based on pre-conceived notions and lack of knowledge. I don’t like to be told how to think and my goal is not necessarily to change other people’s minds but to give them other perspectives to consider. I’ve found that a civil discussion works in many situations.

All the foreigners in the video were so nice and insightful, and Mr Ahmadou from Liberia had such a wonderful message for all of us at the end. Discriminating between peoples on the basis of colour, race, religion, language and even food habits is part of human nature. I guess it’s probably hardwired into our DNA right from the time our forebears were hunter-gatherers and probably stems from a fear of the unknown. I live in one of the most diverse and pluralistic countries on earth (India), and must admit that discrimination and prejudice do exist here, within our society (and not just based on caste), despite millennia of coexistence. As long as there are people like you, highlighting these important issues in a thought provoking way, there is hope for us all! 😊 Keep up the good work.

어떤 방식으로든 자신의 이익을 위해 한국으로 온 것이기 때문에 한국의 질서와 사상, 문화에 적응할 필요가 있다. 반대로 한국 사람도 그렇고. 외국인 친구들이 여럿 있지만 특히 이태원에서는 그들만의 커뮤니티를 구축해서 그들끼리 어울리고 한국어를 조금이라도 배울 생각이 없는 외국인들을 정말 많이 봤다. 심지어 3년, 5년 이상 체류중인데도 불구하고 인사 외에 기본적인 한국어를 구사하지 못하는 외국인들이 정말 많다. 심지어 어떤 식당은 한국어로 주문하면 오히려 난해한 표정을 짓는 곳도 있다. 그리고 이 점은 특히 중국인, 인디아, 무슬림들에게 두드러진다. 인종 차별 역시 없어져야 하지만 그 국가의 사람들에게 존중받으려면 그 나라의 문화를 먼저 존중하고 거기에 적응하려는 노력이 선행되어야 한다.

I discovered your channel by accident. Thank you for the topics you chose and for your presentation. Our 2023 travel destinations include Korea and Japan. I was worried about what kind of country we would encounter. We live in Istanbul, Turkey. The promotion of Korea and Japan is very active here. Consulates and Cultural organizations organize a lot of events and these pre-travel events help us to understand your culture. Due to our proximity to Europe as a country, we travel to Europe a lot and we do not experience adaptation problems. Racism is a general problem. There will be more or less such people in every country, just like good and bad habits. These racist attitudes are often not representative of countries as a whole. At least for Europe and America, we experienced this and made good friends and good memories. As a matter of fact, we see differences such as race, religion and language as a factor that develops them and we focus on people independent of this. We were interested in these cultural promotions for distant Asian countries, and we created a travel plan. Apart from cultural promotion, we needed information about how to treat people who are just starting to open up to the world, and your videos were useful in this sense. Although my communication and human relations concerns continue, I decided that I should challenge this feeling with your videos. I hope our Korea trip will be a good acquisition for us and we can create happy memories🙏☺️

5:16 Not sitting next to a vacant seat next to a foreigner on the subway in Korea does not constitute racial discrimination. Even if the person were Korean or even if there were no one else, there are cases where people choose to stand next to the door, holding onto the pole, instead of taking an available seat. I have also witnessed this in New York when I was there. There were instances where people would stand by the door, holding onto the pole, despite the availability of seats.

[@user-xd6wo3sv8x]

Im korean and Im sure that the racism in korea depends on the where they are came from, the reason why they have come to Korea, and ignorance of the security system of korea, not by skin color. First, Korean language is hard to learn for foreigners so most of them usually hang with people who came from the same country and korean easily find out where the foreigners are came from with their languages or lifestyles. These groups easily become a target of racism especially if they are from countries who have good relationships with north Korea such as China Venezuela (Recently Russia as well) then they would experience Racism with high probability because of their nationality. But if they came from Western Europe or USA or countries that helped south korea in the korean war(old korean really like Colombians), it’s really hard to experience racism beacuse of their nationalities. Second, It’s hard to get a nice job in korea for foreigners because of language. So many of the jobs for foreigners are illegal, and employers who employed those people knows that they can’t get help of Korean government. Third, I think foreigners don’t know that most of place even in the old building or forest in korea is being recorded by security cameras and black boxes of cars(Most of cars even that made in 1990’s have black boxes). That is why most of Korean don’t touch other person’s stuffs on the street nor try illegal things even nobody watches them. But foreigners don’t know this fact and some of them do illegal stuffs on the streets. Such as rape, murder, drug dosing or even kicking or urinating over the car or public stuffs that most of Korean don’t try. I know it is not because koreans are good and foreigners are bad. But they should know they are living in the world similar with the novel, 1984. Although we are not living in a facist country like that novel. Our law enforcement knows what everyone did in korea except inside houses. Many koreans fear foreigners who don’t fear law enforcement of korea.

When I was 6, I saw first foreigner, Japanese. And to have a chance to see a foreigner, happened maybe once a year. this is until 90s in Korea. nowadays I can see many foreigners anywhere, but Koreans don't have enough experience, so I am sure some people say something unnecessary stuff. But by media, Koreans towards foreigners' attitude changed a lot and still changing. I am not saying, it's ok to being racist or rude, though.

Every single actors and actresses look super handsome and pretty, their "low income" rents are super spacious, clean and cozy, etc. I'm not saying that's wrong or anything but I'm saying that's just way it is, and it surely can ingest over-expectation for foreigners who've never been to Korea.
