Korean Apts. Look Like ‘Exploding Twin Towers’

Not really surprising; Koreans are known as rude brutes all over Asia. They've been coming here in swarms last couple years to learn English and many Pinoys have been annoyed by their boorish ways, tending to get physical sometimes. But I always tell our pinoy folks that we ain't much better ourselves and so we're starting to get along pretty well.

There are two type of Koreans.. The ones who are well off come to the U.S. and the other group go to the Philipines cuz everything is cheap over there.. Know what i mean.. KOreans change their moneys to pacels in the philipines and they could live like a king so lot of them be going over there nowadays.

You are a filipino dude so u can't be talking shit about your superiors.. There is a reason why filipinos adopt Korean dramas, tv shows etc etc ya wanna be like us so bad but u can't.. lol

South Korea= Wealthy Nation

Koreans do have a bad reputation in other Asian countries. There is no denying that. Sex tourism is a problem and the Philippines has a growing number of half Korean fatherless kids to deal with. It doesn't help that public schools teach racist ideals from a very young age. The hatred for Japan is awful. Imagine everyone still hating the Germans with such vitriol. Flat out racism and an inability to move on.

Furthermore, though developed, Korea still has its own problems with wealth inequalities. The elite are doing very well, but the bulk of the middle class is based upon credit and could get swallowed up at any time. I actually encourage a property collapse as I have been sensible and don't live beyond my means. But if that does happen and it could well do so this year, then I wouldn't be so quick to mock the living standards of Philippines.

Korea is developed, but the vast majority are teetering on a knife edge. Nice apartment, big car but nothing in the bank.

And only fools like K pop or Korean dramas, they are awful and full of people with daft hair do's and butchered faces.

Regardless of the current economy, korea and philipines are nothing alike.

I hope u can make gather up enough money to get out of korea ,miles. there is no reason to live in a country u love to criticize so much.


and it's easy for a third party like u to talk about forgiveness . If your family didnt suffer from the japanese occupation, u cant speak on it.

Its simple. U dont like korea, dont live there..

I have no intentions of leaving, it is just as much my country as yours believe it or not. I like Korea, but see no problems criticizing problem areas. And yes I can speak on the Japanese occupation as I am more informed on the issue more than most Koreans. Europeans don't have their children drawing hate pictures of Germany, so the Koreans can get over it too. It's a spiteful and xenophobic thing to do.

I shall retire here and grow potatoes. Will you?

[Gandalf]

I criticize wrongdoing wherever it may be and I see nothing particularly hostile in hoping for a depreciation in housing prices . They are well out of wack here.

And as for those hideous television shows and the generic music. The other threads show that I have little time for teen girls doing absurd dances whilst miming or for low brow television. It's just not very good. Too much crying and screeching in both the TV and the music.

I'm an opinionated sort and I shall always be so and on whatever topic that I feel necessary to devour.

Pacfan's post is not meant to be insulting. See his statement that I highlighted. Your post, however, has been insulting to a people and a country.

For someone who does not see that Korean apt. building as insensitive, YOU ARE TOO SENSITIVE.

I have to give credit to miles for postering the sense of equality. Excellent post miles.

[VictorCharlie]

In all fairness Miles really doesn't like any country or people. Doesn't really qualify him as a bigot more of an equal opportunity hater.

...I think if miles could turn into an oppressed minority he would

[VictorCharlie]

Well he already is a Chomsky groupie which makes me amazed I haven't seen a Chomsky link from him in a while.

[FinitoElDinamita]

Miles is just a cynical old man, dude reminds me of larry merchant. You need to get laid man cuz you always sound like you have a nine inch schlong stuck up your ass. Relax, old man ,and u dont have make 3 posts in a row cuz u sound shaken. No, korea is not your country so snap out of that little bubble you live in. Koreans pay your salary miles, they are your boss.

Well I have nothing much to say since Miles and ITNeutralCorner have said it better than I would have. But it would be rude of me if I didn't say anything myself so here's my piece. I apologize if I said anything offensive. I'm more a Japanese than a Pinoy but I chose to represent the latter because I've always been for the underdogs. When I signed up here, I came with a tag 'a proud pinoy..' under my avatar. Why? simply because at that time, many of us filipinos were still ashamed to identify themselves as pinoys and I just wanted to send them a message that there is nothing to be ashamed for being a pinoy.

Secondly, I've always defended the Koreans here when some of our folks complained of being slapped and hit (my sister-in-law was one of the victim herself) by pointing out that it's their peculiar culture and that we shouldn't be too offended because they do that to their own people as well; and that we ourselves have some cultural peculiarities, to put it in a nice way, that we should not to be proud of, but it would not be proper for me to point them out here myself. Well good for us, the pinoys are starting to get used to the Korean ways and the Koreans here and the pinoys are starting to get along pretty well and they are now no.1 tourist here. And I'm pretty happy about that to. And unlike Miles, I do love the Korean dramas simply because they're much better than ours and pinoys here would surely agree.

BTW, I do admit though, that Japanese did horrible things to Koreans and worst of all they still have not come to terms with that, I must say I'm not proud of that, of course. The only way I can defend them is by pointing out that theirs was a history of war, centuries of battles after battles of conquest in their own land and when the strongest one finally conquered all, they have turned into conscience-less brutes who didn't even hesitate to take their own life. But the trouble came when they started thinking of conquering the world..
And now, lets cut the formality and ease up a bit, cheers, buddy...

[El Kabong]

There's just no understanding Japan...I can get along with the Japanese, but there's 0 chance of anyone outside their culture understanding them.

For example....why do the Japanese like the Nazi's and Hitler I mean even Germans or Neo-Nazi's don't like Hitler in all the wierd ways Japan does.


I'm sorry, but Japan is just fucking strange

[El Kabong]

Just for miles!
