Mr. Blonde Goes to South Korea

[Mr. Blonde]

i specifically invited you on facebook chat to come with me to the gorge, how else would i have known you were going to do it later with your girl?

also you didnt ,mention that you canceled your trip with your girl because of me, you said verbatim: "Change of plans. Me and the lady friend have canceled our trip this weekend, so it makes more sense for us to meet Saturday" You sent this on a Thursday. The next day (the 11th, friday, when you were still at work) we both realized we wouldnt be able to meet and you clearly still had time to go on your weekend trip with your girl if you still wanted to. Dont put the cancellation/couples trip not coming to fruition on me, i never asked you to cancel it.

You didnt want to come up for only a few hours. Thats fine.

[SittinOnDubsWGW]

hooray passive-aggressiveness.

[Repugnant Abomination]

Why won't you love me?

[ninjaface]

You guys will have to spend many hours in therapy to work this out

Teachers in Korea - be careful your job. This is my blog, so respect it.

this site is a perfect microcosm of what it is like to be a westerner in Korea. all of the links are parodies (only slightly deviating) from REAL truths that MANY Koreans believe. They literally think that sleeping with a fan on in a room with no open windows and doors can kill you. There are graphics lie that everywhere, with Konglish, nonsensical English printed on clothes and myriad other commercial items that is just ridiculously foolish given the amount of native English speakers living here. I'll upload some photos of school supplies soon.

Anyways, the site is obviously written by a foreigner, but I can't explain how flawlessly he captured how Koreans (children and adults) utilize English in this country, despite many of them having studied it since they were little. For example (no pun intended) Koreans LOVE to use transitions like "For example", "So", and "Also", but they fuck it up/overuse them constantly as "filler". Worth a laugh and a little insight into one of the most nationalistic and racist developed countries in the modern world.

"Fat Girls.

So, as you know, many foregn girls like to eat hambuger, cock cola, also cake. So, we look at the fat girl and we say 'she is a human and I must give her the respect. But, she is fat pig so I don't like give respect for her. Then, I want to fight fat girl but I must have piss, because Jesus want piss in the world and Jesus is good Korea man. So, I will make piss for fat girl. Like this, we must not fight the fat girl, but the fat girl must not have cock cola, for example.

So, if you are the fat girl or you see the fat girl then do not feed her. You must be her friend and show her the mountain, gim, also you must point at her and make laughing, spit, hate words, for example. But do not fight the fat girl because the fat girl will sit on your family, for example.

Fat foregn man is okay, because Korea girl is scared about him.

Remember, fat girl is the human too. She is human pig, so do not feed her or make happy feelings for her. If she lose fat, then you must do sexual feelings about her, but do not tell wife, girlfriend, prostute, for example."

Sound, solid, advice.

Reminded by the NK propaganda. Day after Halloween after pulling an all nighter drinking I went to the DMZ with a couple buddies with a tour group. All in all it sucked pretty bad, the "tour guide" basically just dropped us off in a bus and let us wander around, but at least I can say I did it. Most of it was pretty chintzy/touristy, but there were one or two cool parts.

Freedom Bridge: Where they exchanged prisoners and shit after the Korean War



A gunned the fuck out of Locomotive.



Example of the reunification talk in that other thread.



Awesome pic we took at this bell. I think it was called the Peace Bell. These were all taken at Imjingak, which has basically turned into a tourist center.



North Korea has burrowed a series of tunnels underneath the NK/SK border all the way to Seoul, thus far they have only found 4 of them. I got to go in one, but I guess here was a visual of what it would look like if they would have actually invaded Seoul? "Estimates based on the tunnel's size, suggest it would have allowed approximately 2,000 KPA soldiers (one regiment) to pass through it per hour."





We weren't supposed to have cameras past this point, but it was pretty loosely enforced. I just took this, pretended to put it back in a locker, and put it in my pocket.



This is the "tourist created tunnel" as I have named it to get down to the actual tunnel dug by North Korea. At first I thought this was it and was severely disappointed.



This is part of the actual tunnel, and it was VERY short. Maybe 5 feet tall? Which is why we had to wear those yellow hats. The North Koreans had scrubbed coal on the walls to try and pass it as a "coal mine" if it were discovered. It didn't work.



There are still tons of mines from the Korean War as well as freshly placed one everywhere around the DMZ. Needless to say, w weren't allowed to wander much.



This is where you can view the actual DMZ and North Korea. Several interesting points to this picture: Most of whitey you see here were on my tour group, or another ones. Clearly the whole experience has been kind of commercialized as fuck, which kinda took away from it a bit, but whatever. Also that yellow line you see on the ground is some pretty dumb arbitary line we couldn't cross with a camera. We could go to the wall and look over, but not take pictures. This is a dumb point for several reasons, mainly being tall (the tallest one in the middle left is our buddy Tim) and having arms/zoom functions on almost every camera on the market these days, but whatever. There were Korean soldiers all around who would take your camera and make you delete pictures if they caught you taking any past the yellow line.



A lot of us did it anyway.



Good call, SK. That'll scare 'em. Dunno what the first part means, but the last part says "han-chingu" which means something like "korean friend" so it probably says something like "the korean army is your friend"



The last stop was a place called Dorasan Station, which I guess was transporting goods to and from NK (Pyeongyang is the capital of NK and where Kim Jong Il resides), but got shut down when things went south a couple years ago.

Overall, pretty cool. Earlier this month NK announced it was willing to let Americans into North Korea again, so i've been keeping in touch with a tour group to try and get in on that.

Hopefully they aren't letting Americans in to take as hostages. See you in 50 years Blonde.

[Mr. Blonde]

this is a perfect example of not just one, but 5 of the standard western girls who come to Korea. the one on the left is the most attractive, and that's saying a lot. I have been here over a year and have met, maybe, a total of 10 hot western girls, seen maybe 30 more. I don't even know of that's an accurate statement, I wouldn't be surprised if I don't know what a hot white girl looks like anymore. 6's and 7's come here and are automatically bumped up to 9's and 10's. It's fucking ridiculous.

[Ugly Bastard]

Those are some seriously busted chicks.

[Fruitacious B]

based on that picture, with only one of the five being even mildly attractive. Chances are less than or equal to 20% that any Western chick over there will be attractive.

But why go to Korea and fuck White Chicks? You should be knee-deep in hot asian tail.

[Mr. Blonde]

Indeed, I thought the same thing before my excursion, but the fact of the matter is that Korean girls are simply too conservative and innocent, and not in the sexy way. You basically have to be their boyfriend for them to even consider having sex with them, and to be their boyfriend you basically have to tell them you're in love with them. Neither of these things are things i'm willing to do.

I've heard it's a different story from some people, namely people who live in Seoul (a lot easier to take girls home when you don't live an hour away by cab, but I have yet to see this in practice. Most guys who hook up with Korean girls have only hooked up with one, and she is now their girlfriend. I wouldn't even want that anyway, no matter how hot she is...Korean girls are EXTREMELY clingy and needy, just how their culture is, combined with the fact that she probably doesn't speak enough conversational English to want to be around her for longer than necessary anyways.

The bottom line (i've said that a lot today) is that most "Asian girls love Western guys" stereotypes are simply false in the 21st century, at least when it comes to hooking up with no strings. I could probably easily get a Korean girlfriend, but that's the last thing I want, and it would likely be extremely sexually unsatisfying based on their cultural views of sex. They don't need Western guys anymore, the "Western Culture" that we've been brought up through movies and media to expect other countries want SO BAD from us is already here and it's been adopted by their own males. Korean chicks have been fucking Korean guys for thousands of years, and Korean guys can converse with them, likely share the same cultural and idealogical viewpoints, and won't cause them to be stared at and insulted when they're in public (which happens to a lot of Korean girls who date Western guys)

Living here is kind of a huge cocktease. There are hot Korean girls (see kpop thread...although it's usually not that extreme in public) who walk around in the shortest skirts you could possibly imagine being socially acceptable with heels, and have some of the best bodies you could imagine..but the chances of you ever seeing those heels on your bedroom floor are pretty slim.

[Repugnant Abomination]

Same thing in Taiwan. Asian cultures are just so different. Of course the women are going to want you to be their boyfriend - there's no such thing as one night stands here, at least not that I know of.

[Mr. Blonde]

On a related note Repug, when I was at the memorial hall in Taipei visiting, I saw some of the hottest, sluttiest looking teenagers i've ever seen. i couldn't stop staring.

What's the age of consent in your foreign, foreign land?

13!! :-O Source

(16 in Repug's shithole)

[Mr. Blonde]

That's pretty fucked up, I didn't even know that. I could have sex with like half of my female students.

I feel weird...

[Fruitacious B]

See? There's an upside to everything.

Pro Tip:

If you're looking for slutty Asians, Japan and Thailand are bountiful.

[SittinOnDubsWGW]

In regards to the hooking-up-with-asians point and the "boyfriend/girlfriend" aspect that Blonde is talking about.

Take it for what its worth, but one of my good friends was talking about this aspect the other day that it's uncommon to hook up and have a one night stand with chicks in Asians at the bar/club/whatever. He did say however, the second/third time of going out with the girls as a "date" it was extremely common to hook up. He said it was extremely common for them to call him their boyfriend during their second date.

Your mileage may very, but this is what he said his experience was as he said it took him ~6 months of getting pissed at not hooking up to figure it out.

[Mr. Blonde]

You mean all I have to do to get laid is put myself in the position for a girl who has very annoying cultural differences to view me as her boyfriend?! Done!

Joking aside, I hate leading girls on and hate being "the bad guy". It does an unwanted trip on my conscience and Korean girls are much more innocent and emotional than a seasoned Western veteran.

I was the same exact way. Back in the hay day I made sure they knew I wasn't emotionally tied to them in anyway.

[Mr. Blonde]

k thanks

[Der Fuhrer]

Women usually know I'm not emotionally attached. It's more about power for me. That and they usually can't see my face through the mask I'm wearing.
