Have fun ! if you meet a korean girl, she will most likely ask you this question for fun.
If you have interesting input with this whole bloodtype thing, please feel free to share your thoughts
p.s - If you know your bloodtype, I'd like to know if your personality matches with the generic personality that it is associated with.

No correlation exists between blood type and personality. Any claim that people can deduce your blood type by carefully watching you is rubbish. I put this in a category with astrology, and the name of that category is 'bullshit'.

Even though this is just a poll thread this line is enough to convince me that the thread should stay open.

Should the poll also add the positive and negatives? Anyways, I'm AB+. I'm not sure if the personality fits me though.

Check out the Wikipedia article on this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_types_in_Japanese_culture
"Ultimately deriving from ideas of historical scientific racism, the popular belief originates with publications by Masahiko Nomi in the 1970s. The scientific community dismisses such beliefs as superstition or pseudoscience."

I don't remember my bloodtype... this thing does seem dumber than all the astrological zodiac sign bullshit though.
You should try to search few celebrities bloodtypes. afterall, this is just for fun and some believe it and some don't.
I think its quite good estimate.
I've done enough random stalking bloodtypes of korean celebs, and they fit quit well.
For example ,snsd seohyun, is bloodtype A. shes the quiet,shy one that is very organized and neat.

My bloodtype is B but that description on people with type B is like the exact opposite of who I am.
This makes me believe that this is just another "fan death" superstition.

Yeah, this stuff really is bogus. It's not just Koreans, stupid relatives ask me this all the time and are stunned that I don't know. They don't understand the idea of superstition and were surprised that some Americans didn't believe in astrology. I would ask you to please include the fact that blood type isn't actually correlated with personality in the OP. That way his thread is more for fun and less to spread false information.

Just another form of religion like wearing copper braclets, astrology, or going to mosque.

There should also be an option "I don't know my bloodtype" because I don't.

I'm A and my personality matches the description given above almost exactly, BUT I do not believe in a coherency. Everybody who does not know his bloodtype... please go and donate your blood every other month. You'll know the type and do something good : )

This makes me believe that this is just another "fan death" superstition. obviously it might not be accurate for some people but i kid you not i thought this was utter crap (i think horoscopes are retarded and other similar things as well) but it was so interesting finding out how accurately some of my friends' bloodtypes correlated with their personality. especially the B's... there are like 10 B's in the dorm and 8/10 are spot on. 1 of them is an A personality and the other is like a mix between others. I also remember hearing that people who were say, AB, and received B or A blood from donors sometimes had personality changes. dunno if this is true though
Yea, same here.
Maybe its just korean thing? our bloodtype matches so well with the said personality that I got to a point where I wondered, why isnt there a thesis paper being written about it.
But, the big two difference is A or B. they are the polar opposites, and O is kinda in the middle. Not shy or overly outgoing but pretty relaxed and does what they think is right.
