I answered it right the first time, and I will say it again.

Stop asking this question USE THE SEARCH BAR

Korean girls and guys hide their faces because they're supposed to be studying hard getting into a good school not at a live game match. This accounts for much more than shyness/culture/etc..

I thought there was some kind of cultural superstition involving cameras, souls, and bad things happening?

I believe that would be the Amish you're thinking of...they are of the persuasion that a camera steals your soul when a picture is taken of you.

skipping school to see boxer, don't want to be seen doin' that
Someday, you’re going to fuck up so magnificently, so ambitiously, so overwhelmingly that the sky will light up and the moons will spin and the gods themselves will shit comets with glee. And I just hope I’m still around to see it.

Because 99% of them are suppose to be in school cramming for college. The last thing you want is your mom turn on the TV to see you skipped cram school and went to watch starcraft.

its just natural for korean girls to never want a picture of themselves released unless its at perfect angle with lots of makeup and lots of photoshop

that and its just part of the culture, everyone does it, they probably see people doing it as babies and mimic

he's right man hot girls are way less likely to cover their faces (some still do)

on cyworld which is a popular korean homepage like myspace except better, almost all hot girls make their pictures available to the public... but all the girls who only make their pictures available to friends are almost always busted

1) All students are expected to study from 6AM ~ 2AM since # of Korean Students >>> # of colleges. So they should be studying and not be cheering for their favorite player and will get in trouble if caught.
2) They are ugly as fuck.
3) Asians are usually shy in their genes
4) What Rekrul said.

korea is a very superficial place, being ugly here absolutely blows, especially if you're a girl

it is utterly sickening as to how well hot girls get treated and how ugly girls get treated

i mean its like that anywhere, but this place is EXTREME

you will rarely see a hot girl/guy happily greeting an ugly guy/girl happy and normally in korea. thats not true so much in the usa. (of course there are exceptions in korea for like schools and people who must work together...but random get togethers, if a korean finds a new acquaintance of the opposite sex unnattractive conversation just aint gunna happen)

nor will you ever see a hot korean girl with a fat friend or an ugly friend. you see this all the time in the states. theres a big black fine line in korean culture between the ugly and the beautiful.

koreans dont spam world events and crimes on the news non stop like in usa too...its mostly whos hot and whos not, no one gives a fuck about north koreas nukes, they just wonder what 600k car Han Chae Young's new rich old husband bought her as a marriage present.
