Wow, now that was some racistic video I've just seen.

I really find funny how "korean women" are presented as some kind of innocent pray, that basically foreigners go around and stab with their dicks and woman cannot do anything.
I'm not completly sure about Korean culture, but is there a word No in your dictionary?
If so, then girls can always say it, and if they don't, then there must be a reason why.

Also foreigner HIV stuff is hillarious, HIV doesn't care what race or gender you are.

I don't understand why this is "trash" or bad? It's not offensive or negative at all. It's raising awareness about issues that do exist, and though it may sound offensive, it is just the way Asian culture is. I'm not Korean, but I am Asian, and as an Asian, I have seen this idea of "foreigners" shitting on Asians and their cultural values many times. I've also seen Asians shitting all over other people just because they're foreigners as well. The problem is, individuals group everyone into one category just because of their race or ethnicity and then people put a label on them, upsetting millions of people. If the video had presented its message in a more "appropriate" way, no one would be so uptight about it. But it isn't, so get over it. I love how in the U.S., one Asian guy does something horrible and he's immediately front page news, but twenty other white guys have done the same thing yet they get a 1 minute coverage on Breaking News, Live at 11. It's the fucking media folks, deal with it.

Anyways, generally speaking, the Asians have very conservative cultures. They will speak about foreigners in disrespectful ways and will look down on interracial relationships. But you know what? There is a good amount of truth in the things Asians have to say about "foreigners". But it's not just foreigners causing problems, everyone does it to everyone else at some point. It's only being emphasized in Korea because it's starting to become a large issue there.

What? I can only speak from my experience, but I have never heard of or seen anything like that in my life, nor have I ever heard anyone refer to or speak about this supposed phenomenon of Asian men's bad deeds being disproportionately reported, except for you.

As for your second paragraph, it seems like by conservative cultures, you mean racist and xenophobic cultures. So you agree with the OP. And the OP is pointing out that racism and xenophobia should be criticized where it is observed.

Am I the only one who thinks one of the foreigners in that video looks like TLO even blurred?

This is probably be closed. No need for the odd video made by a bunch of individuals to represent a whole country, thank you very much.

But of course, knowing this community...

What a complete joke of a video. A young guy talking about his "friends" that get HIV and get scammed from these evil foreigners. Sounds like a racist moron reciting the urban myths that he and his friends cooked up to fuel their hatred. The video is full of bigotry.

The worst thing about the video that got me really fucking mad though was the incredibly blatant disrespect these korean men who were interviewed had for korean women. They spoke of the women as if they are stupid children that have no control over their lives or decisions and no choice but to get swept away by these criminal foreigners.

Am I really out of line in thinking that this is not a problem at all? Some women wanted to have casual sex without protection. Some got STDs. Some got dumped after a one night stand. What is the issue here? Has anyone in the history of mankind gone out barhopping in search for a slow moving romance?

Culture or no culture. A program like this can't be labeled as anything else than bigoted propaganda for people with a very old fashioned world veiws.

So it's up to 2-10 sample size now? Very good. Try 10,000 and the appropriate robustness tests and then I'll pay attention to your claims.

Can't forget a control sample either...

This isn't www.elitistpricks.com

You clearly go to university and are very proud of this fact.

I guess anyone that doesn't know how to find or reference academic papers doesn't have an opinion worth hearing anymore? And of course everything in this world that exists outside of quantified and categorised data musn't be worth talking about.

Ugh, now I feel bad for adopting the same snotty tone you were using.

Just trying to say the tone of your messages is very elitist and you can't just demand everyone who wishes to talk about something needs to reference their claims as if it's a university paper. This isn't an academic forum so hoping for that would be a bit silly.

Nothing against you personally just I think you're posts were a little off.

Good day!

Erhm... how is TV about this stuff in general in Korea?

This video could be 1:1 from any German commercial TV program, just with different participants.

I think this is great if they showed it outside of Korea.

Think about all the money flowing from desperate foreigners coming for the easy women.

Seriously i don't know why this thread is still going.
On topic i don't even get how anyone could blame the foreigners in this, i mean, if the parents educated their daughters better they certainly wouldn't give their bodies so easily, blaming it on foreigners is kind of silly as korean guys are most likely doing the same. Those girls are not helpless, they're not being raped, they know what they're doing. Seriously what did those girls expect ?

This is not a problem at all. A lot of countries have similar propaganda. Sensational and " shocking " but that's to be expected with corporate media. Saying " all is well in our little perfect world " doesn't exactly give you many viewers. Having said that there are better topics to get attention, like the absurd suicide rate ( of 31.2 per 100 000 ).

The thing is that the documentary isn't completely untrue. Certain types of Korean women are easier to date as a Caucasian, and many Caucasians know and take advantage of this. If you like the nightlife in any major city, you may find that exchange students from Asia are relatively easy to approach as a Caucasian because of their inherent curiosity of what is unknown to them.

I really don't understand this whole topic, women can date whomever they want. If they want easy dates with foreigners, it's their personal choice. If there are major scam/HIV cases, then you have to spread awareness but not declare this in itself a problem

I don't really care if Koreans dislike other foreigners, but they have absolutely no right to dislike Americans when dumped so much money into their country. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.

Having been to many asian countries and had relationships with different ladies from these countries, I can say that without doubt that this video is both naive and simply wrong. There are many awful places where sex tourism occurs but that is completely different from what is being projected here. Plus to put it bluntly many ladies see western and foreign men as a chance for a better life and the difference in cultures also means that some of these ladies assume (rightly or wrongly) that they will be treated better by these men.

As if the Korean women can't make their own decisions on who to date and who not to date.
Come on people, this is just silly...

Omg I know I can't tell if this is actually some elaborate joke video or a giant troll or what. I hope Korean news channels don't think everything happens exactly like they said it does in the video.
