I still have close friends and relatives out there so i'm updated with whatever is going still going out there. And FYI, yea, the best fighters in school are the most popular and they get all the girls and the power.

You clearly dont understand our people as much as I do but that's only normal.

BTW, i made some edits because of typos.. Im not trying to pump us up as if we're some superheros..
I have lived out here for a decade, married a Korean, have an extended Korean family and taught thousands of Korean people. Heck I even have permanent residency in this country. I know my way around pretty well, you might be more Korean than me, but I know the society pretty well myself. The good looking guys get the girls, not the best fighters. Have you seen the K-pop singers that look like ladyboys? That's who the young girls are swooning over, not some bone headed mafia type.
I hear ya.. Im sick and tired of those girlyboys and boybands lol.. Come to think of it, maybe I'm still stuck in the 80s/90s Korea. I know things are a lot different now but some things will never change. It really depends on the area too cuz I know places like Dae Gu, Chul la Namdo and mokpo that makes sicily feel like Disneyland. I know these young korean girls are into skinny, gay looking boys but it wasnt like that at all when I was growing up and i know lot of other parts of korea that havent changed much. ( In my late 20s btw )

Are you an english teacher at an after school program or at a public school?
