and:

Not all of them are incredibly well mannered as you put it - I find most of them to be efficient, but silent.


That is the epitome of mannered.

Not that Koreans aren't racist because they certainly are LOL (though since 2000 it's gotten wayyyyy better)


you're trying to have fun at her expense more than you're trying to teach her anything, you can at least be honest about that


I feel bad when Koreans have to deal with dumb white people in general. This has nothing to do with having fun.

If someone can't handle a tiny amount of criticism they probably shouldn't be posting in my blog LOL


Thanks for calling me a dumb white person too. Last time I checked you're white and definitely far from perfect.


Next time you feel as if they are giving you shit just say 빨리 가자 걱정하지마 (bbali ka ja kuck jung ha ji ma - hurry up lets go don't worry) and there will no longer be any problems.

Yeah, rek needs to update us on the latest Grrr news. Maybe he just walks the streets of Seoul with no permanent home and sleeps with hot girls and has a ton of money and is incredibly handsome?

Obviously it's all relative, but in general yes. If they know you can speak some korean yet elect to not use jondemal they will very often atleast make a comment though, but u can make them like it.

it's like a mutual beneficial situation where the older korean feels like he's talking to a cute little kid so it's alright, and rek feels like he's getting around the trouble of having to learn respectful speech//wrapping his insolent american mind around the concept of ever having to show respect to anyone, so as long as that relationship holds stable it's fine.

Great stuff as usual!
There was once a dream that was Esports. You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish... Now is the time to make that dream a reality!
