Please interview U.S. military men and women.

A lot of these women are dating men in their 20's. I don't really think Korean men in their 20's are necessarily having serious relationships, especially with foreign women. I met met my (now) Korean husband when we were 29. I had to go on a lot of dates to find a guy like him. My advice for serious relationships: -Don't look for your man in a club/bar. -If he's young, I would not expect you to consider him marriage material for a while. (Koreans marry later than westerners) - make boundaries - if your interest in Korea is surface level, then you probably won't get far with him - there are a lot of men. If someone doesn't want to commit, drop him fast and move on

And she is so intelligent!

When she said that "foreigners get displayed as a trophy and are just there for koreans to show off" I completely felt that going to a Korean school currently on my 5th month, now I don't necesarily look like a foreigner at first sight since I'm of asian descent but I got treated the exact same way, for being fluent in English and from someone who came from America. It may not be obvious at first, but the more you spend time with Koreans the more left out you feel and are there to just get showcased around, not to have an actual conversation with besides curiousity or to help those in need. For ex, kids from different homerooms would come to our class specifically to see my face and have a 30 second conversation which were mostly bs then never see them again. And yes I have tried communicating in Korean many times tho I may not be the most fluent I can hold a decent conversation if they were willing to listen. Exclusion can hurt coming from someone who loves conversating with people, it really does. That's why focusing on learning to be more fluent in Korean became my only goal, less stressful and i can actually get a breather from using 90% of my energy to trying to communicate with a brick wall basically. So unless your coming to Korea to make friends, date etc instead of just touring, I higly recommend learning the language. It would be beneficial for both sides. This was a bit long but thought i needed to get it off my chest.

The Canadian lady is a teacher, as I understand it. And teaching is usually associated with logic and a clear definition of the subject and responsibilities of the educational process. Therefore, she expresses her thoughts and impressions more clearly. The young Russian lady is a student and finds it difficult to express herself in English, so her speech is not so logical. An adult lady from an unnamed country is a tourist and clearly loves just chatting, especially with gallant men, so she is not prone to logic. But taken together, they represent a wonderful ensemble of different opinions of white women from different circles about life in Korea.

The Canadian girl’s answers were so precise and spot-on and thought-provoking 👍🏻 Really enjoyed listening to her thoughts.

German girl here living in Korea since 4 years 👋 The beautiful red haired girl with the gorgeous tattoos spoke 100% facts. Everything she said was on point. Despite having lived in Korea 4 years already, I've been on maybe 2 dates (with the same guy) and apart from that I only get creeps that grab me by the arm in the street or follow you around to look at you. Getting into a serious relationship in Korea as a white woman (especially with blond hair blue/green eyes) like me, is a nightmare. I don't even think about dating anymore, I just gave up. Thankfully Korea is a beautiful exciting country to live in as a Single, there is plenty to do and it rarely gets boring. So that's a plus.

I think a lot of this happens to younger generations. As an older female (60's), l finally made my first trip to Korea last Christmas for about 3 weeks. Hardly anyone, of any generation, directly looked at me or spoke to unless l was buying something (which was once). I think 2 people smiled or said hello the whole time.That was it. I certainly don't need the unwanted kind of attention, nor does any woman, but it is nice if someone could at least acknowledge you while trying to converse, however poorly in my case, in their own language. This doesn't deter me from visiting again but l can see how an older person especially would find it hard to make friends if they lived there.

Walking on the street, find excuses to ask people simple stuff, buy an apple, ask your way to a museum even if you very well know where it is., Acknowledge kids and strike up a conversation with the parents. As a matter of fact, in my 50s, I try to talk to people my age. One thing that helps a lot is to use only Korean and speak it with the least amount of accent. Yes Koreans will try to ignore you if your accent proposes that your abilities are very limited. Remember, this society is about making things happen fast, not wasting time, etc.

I just got back from SK, I stayed mostly in Seoul, I'm 30 and people still didn't talk to me, except one woman who had a perfect english or only through my sister's connections (she is studying there). And an older man wanting a date (no thank you, sir). I think it's their general behavior? They stay inside their bubble and don't do small talks if not necessary (I'm social and extrovert, and in France small talk is almost considered politeness, so unsettling to me) so with the language barrier it stops most. I had better luck in Jeju, one night at a pocha two 30 something women joined my table and we had a party night (2 seoulites on vacation), and older ladies were chatty, in general people were a lot friendlier (I mean capital city vs island, it's the same everywhere).

That Canadian lady is a shining role model for her country and people. She's so respectful of other cultures, and honest and fair with her opinions and answers. I'm pretty sure she's quite well-read and won't be surprised at all if she's very highly educated. But above all, her awareness, acknowledgement and respect of cultural and societal differences really makes her stand out as an individual.

@@yaya5tim You are correct! White men also think that Asian women are "easy" or promiscuous,; the white men also objectify them.

As a Korean, I totally agree that Korean people prefer way more white people to dark skin people. first, I think this is caused from long term history. Korean people call themselves as tribes in white. it has various meaning. they tred to wear some clothes in white all the time rather than colorful ones or black ones. definitely it was lacking of materials or any skills of dying industry to use colorful ones. also they described satan as a thing in black all the time while they describe angel parts in white 100%. secondly although China and Japan have attacked Korea, so called Lee Dynasty from Joseon and even from age of Three countries(Goguryu, Shilla, Baekje), Korean have been 1 unique and sole people without mixing any other races around the world more than 5,000 years. The first offical try to open their gate for Western was around 150 years ago meanwhile Japan opened 15th century to Portuguese and China 19th even before. which means Korean need more time to live in mingled races. even when I was in my twenties, it was kind of hard to see any foreigner(no matter what their races are) on the street. you need to go to private Engilish institutor to meet American. now 5% of Korean population consists of foreigners thanks to the fianance development and Kpop boom. I believe due to those 2 facts I mentioned above, Korean people still have racism over the color of the skin. I have lived in Western countries more than half of my adult life. the racisiom is all over the world. it is just more and less. one fact is that living in other country as a foreigner always confronts racism naturally. it is not something new. Anyhow, I have dated white, black, latina and asian. my answer for all woman is same. they are woman. difference race compared to man. can't be easily mixed. hahaha

I like the Russian girl and her way of answering. She's really kind and sweet. She's not expecting nothing as a foreigner and just live her experience without going too far in the thinking of the way she's "treated". She's just chill and doing what she have to do there without complaining. I like this way of thinking and mentality. And also a lot of yellow/brown/black people don't like white skin and think it's bland and not sexy so I don't think it's that of a privilege in the end.

What are you talking about if most Europeans, originally white, believe that the best vacation is in the southern countries to get a tan? Tanned skin is considered more beautiful than pure white, even in northern countries. That is - for the whites themselves, white skin is not considered sexy. ))) . But there is a nuance. White skin is considered more beautiful in East and Southeast Asia - from Korea and Japan to China, Tailand or India. Historically, light skin was for the rich, and dark skin for the common people working in the fields under the sun.

Koreans aren't Christian

Another great wee interview.

Age matters, too. These women are young so they are seen by a lot of men as potential partners. As someone who is older, I have a different experience of Korea.

Dang, I'm at 3:17. I'm white and live in Korea and no one has ever said that to me. I think it's also a pretty factor. I'm not a pretty woman. So even though I'm white, I'm not skinny or pretty. Therefore, no one says anything to me. My coworker, who is poc, said that I have a better chance at getting a date because im white.....she is dating someone and has had a few relationships in Korea....I haven't had a single one. 😂 one time, I joined HelloTalk for language exchange and was talking to this one guy in the military. He showed me a pic of his face, and I sent him one of me. He goes, "Oh...." and blocks me. 😂

Yeah I’m a white woman living in Korea as well. I totally agree. I hate how people always assume that I’m promiscuous like I’m asexual 😭

I think the Canadian girl explains really nicely of how it actually is! :) I also lived in Korea for a year as an exchange student and I had so many guys coming up to me on the street and mostly directly asked if I had a boyfriend or not and when I said "yes" they were mostly also gone as quickly. I also received messages of people who just wanted to have one-night-stands etc and just have this picture of white women being "easy". I also had a guy asking me to have 'ons' even though he was hiding that he has a Korean girlfriend. And another foreign friend experienced the same. Some Korean guys like this date a white woman besides their real girlfriend, because foreigners are usually only there for a short time, so they can have their fun for a bit. I also dated a guy while I was in Korea but as soon as I was gone he broke up with me, even though I already bought flight tickets to see him as quickly as possible again and he told me one day before how bad he misses me. So I think because of all this white women fun or trophy kind of behaviour people should definitely be more careful whom they trust in regards of dating. Not only in Korea of course, but I think even more there because of the picture that quite some people have of foreigners.

Hello, Jin. I thank the YT algorithm that suggested me one of your videos. I've been trying to learn more about Korean culture in general and overcome certain stereotypes that I've encountered along the way. Sad to say that what drove me into this journey in the first place was K-pop and Netflix, like the third lady said and I think the culture shock mesmerized me to the fact that I wanted to learn more about it. For me, K-dramas and K-pop came when I was in a dark place so they gave me a beautiful good time and as I mentioned, when the culture shock hit me, curiosity woke up. Of course I've thought about going there and it gave me purpose (I think). So, trying to justify the time I'm investing researching Korean culture and not working (bills aren't gonna pay themselves), me as a writer, I set one of my books there and coming as a non-Korean speaker and a white woman. I'm trying to avoid any negative or positive stereotypes and these kind of personal experiences help me a lot to create characters more compelling and down to reality. There have been sometimes where I think of dropping the project off out of fear of coming out as offensive, exploitative or ridiculous, as that's the last thing I desire. I hope to see more of your interviews and other related content to help me enrich my project even more. I loved the responses given by the Canadian woman, so blunt and on-point to what was asked, there are a lot of social-issues than can be delved upon that just plain answers. She brought so much deeper meaning to the questions and the situations you wanted to focus on. Wish we could find more people that brings this kind of thought-provoking responses to social-related interviews.

I guess the White prefer for korean men grounds for ‘sense of difference‘. Our culture prefer ‘white and clear skin’,(not White’s red skin) and this culture has continued to this day since Goguryeo(1c-8c country in korea). Based on this, The reason why we prefer ‘white people’ is not because of the influence of whitewashing, but because Koreans who traditionally like white color have alike skin color with ‘White’ except Koreans and Japanese. Many white propaganda can't be ignored, but I think this has contributed to reduce a lot to this sense of alienation and difference.

The Canadian girl was so honest and brave to say this

It makes me sad to hear something like, "I felt like an object or a trophy to show." One must have felt extremely awkward and foul to be in that situation, people obviously liking you but for detestable reasons. Only after the 1980s was traveling abroad permitted for the public (restricted by the military dictatorship for public control purposes). This was practically the first time since the delegates during the Chosun dynasty and Daehan Empire at the turn of the 19th -> 20th century that Koreans explored and saw the world outside for themselves. A mere generation has passed for the Koreans to actively develop a sense of cosmopolis. For most other Koreans who stay in their native country, change comes much slower and gradually. A long-term repeated first-hand exposure to 'other people' seems essential to passively develop a sense of cosmopolis. The current rate of 4.5% (of foreigners to the total population) seems too low yet to consider escape from a nationalist mind, a 'Korean'/'foreigner,' 'we'/'they' language use/way of thinking. A lot depends on the patience and perseverance of those who come and stay in this country despite some creaks and squeaks along the way to mutual respect and maturity. Intended or not, they are the pioneers/evangelists, not of religion, but of the growth of the cosmopolitan mind in Koreans. Cheers for its advent Appendix (in case you are interested): I. This is not to give an impression that Korean people are more immature in interacting/coexisting with foreigners than non-Korean people, as I can tell from my experience that most people in most countries - with a few exceptions - in the world behave not very differently (that is, in a nationalistic, non-cosmopolitan way). Thus, my philosophical demand for a spread of the cosmopolitan view applies to the whole world, not only to South Korea. II. Talking about cosmopolitanism might sound off-topic from the original one: "How is life in Korea like as a 'white woman'?" but it is with purpose and not without reason. This was because I think the question is flawed (not to mention the concept of 'white' is ill-founded, therefore flawed), as I do not see the (bad/good) experiences they are sharing are mainly due to them being 'white.' Granted, these conceptual ambiguities are secondary; living as a 'white' woman in Korea and the 'white privilege' are two different things. 'White privilege' is an idea based on decent data that explains a lot of phenomena (and especially history) in North America (and many other countries). However, the privileges or mishaps stemming from differences in appearances in Korea don't neatly come under the phenomena of 'white privilege' as North Americans know it (the latter is more dense and complex with plenty of socio-economic consequences). It has more to do with the immature behavior of Koreans toward foreigners due to the lack of first-hand experience with them and Koreans' obsession with appearances which they apparently cannot hide when they encounter some good-looking (usually) Western women whose features resemble those represented in the media.

If Korea becomes like any other countries on Earth, then it will become uninteresting; Allyu will be dead, tourism will come down significantly, etc., etc., etc. As a foreigner, I feel insecure around foreigners in South Korea, that's why I avoid certain spots in Seoul. Nothing happens in a vacuum. There are consequences to everything.

I think learning the language is very important. If you move to another country, respect them by learning their culture and their language. In America, mostly Hispanics come here and won’t learn our language but others from other countries will.

I was on vacation in Korea for almost 3 months and noticed I (a white, blonde hair, green eyes woman) had a lot of privileges my friends of colour did not. I went out to clubs many nights and while it was very easy for me to get free drinks basically every time and had a lot of interest from mostly Korean men, my friends of colour got a lot less of that. I even saw dark skinned foreigners get denied entry for “being foreigners” despite the fact that I got in just before them, and I am also very obviously a foreigner! Not all attention was good though, as many Korean men assumed I was easy to get into bed and some would immediately ask me to go to a karaoke room or their house with them😳 some friendly Koreans also told me how sleeping/being with a white woman is even considered a ‘trophy’ or ‘achievement’ of some kind, which is disgusting :( I got some compliments on my hair and skin being so “pretty and light” and my eyes too, all features that were very clearly European/white. Overall I had a great time but I can’t help but think that my time there would’ve been different if I didn’t look the way I do.

I went to Korea two months ago and I had a conversation with a man there very similar to what the red headed girl was saying. I made him aware of how a lot of girls feel about men there and their concerns. He was shocked to learn the stereotype but he began to understand and I fully believe he probably knew some guys like that, or maybe even had his own experience

That's actually a clever response! Are korean men conscious of the reputation they have overseas? Also regardless of the culture the most "open minded" people are the chillest, most respectful people out there and people who get overly excited about the idea and want to "experience" without putting effort tend to not pass the vibe check. It's not going to get them anywhere.

I met some Korean girls at university in Australia and I was friends with them. More than one of them told me that they would not entertain the thought of marrying a non-Korean.

Wow, such a good conversations, well done girls for being honest! I'd love to hear even more opinions from a Canadian girl. Very interesting character :)

awesome interview, the Canadian girl is so charming :)

These type of questions are always answered in a bit of a generic way that we have heard 1000 times before. So about Koreans leaving foreigners out or showcasing them as foreigners. This would happen if you are either not fluent in Korean or not wellread about Korean culture, what makes a conversation going, what kind of timely reactions or jokes they would find funny etc. Once they see you are like them that "leaving out" thing does not happen (though obviously some people might have experienced otherwise still). They have a very distinct culture from you and that shapes everything. Even the way you speak to your friends can be unique and everything and when you are not the best in naturally spoken Korean etc. they simply do not know how to reach to you as they are not the best english speakers either. So you either have to show your culture is not that different by your actions and reactions or show them you are capable of understanding what is happening around you after which I believe, there will be no problems like being ignored. I have worked in Korea for some time before moving to Japan. I had many difficulties in the country (solely due to my work and nothing else) but being left out by my friends wasn't one. I didn't experience this as much as it is being said in every video. I never felt like a trophy inside a group and I was one of only foreigner in a group of 6. With that being said, I preferred the company of Korean guys (normal friends, nothing else) more than Korean girls for whom everything was a race and with whom the conversation tended to be a bit dull and superficial beyond a point. So I have like 5-6 guy friends and 1 female friend. (she is the grumpiest person I know but I love her for it :D) One thing that is definitely correct though...foreigner girls in general are seen as "easy" for sure. Girls who go there have a great contribution to that image since for some, the country basically turned into what Thailand is for old white guys. Everyone can do what they want so I don't mind honestly, it is very easy to show them you are not easy which if you find the right guy (and you can't find them in Hongdae or Itaewon you guys....), can easily turn into a real relationship and you wouldn't have to think about being seen as a trophy ever again. (I have a Korean fiance). Also there are a lot of assumptions again. The only foreigners with negative image in Korean minds would be the southeast asian workers honestly. North americans see everything from the lens of identity politics and race. Koreans do not think this much about it. No they didn't approach you because you are white, they did it because they genuinely thought you were pretty. They would and literally do the same thing to a black girl that is equally as attractive and they do. In dating everyone has different preferences like everywhere in the world though fair skin is generally preferred among the most (Korean ot foreigner). Which is a shame because honestly Korean guys with a bit more tan are much more attractive.

This is a Korean man who used to live in Korea. totally relatable to everything they said in this video. I've got some international friends back then, even dated a White Floridian. I think it's a natural process for both of them (Koreans/nonkoreans) to get to know each other. let's just be open-minded.

South Koreans always said how many your country like pale skin, so it's normal they think like that

First of all, what i want to advise the white girls is work on the Korean language if you want to actively engage in conversation to avoid misunderstanding your Korean boyfriend just shows his friends as you are a trophy or an object of showing off or flexing. That misunderstanding stems from the language deficiency. I live in Canada as a Korean immigrant now and my status in Canada is not the same as they enjoy the one in Korea. Toronto is better as this is a big city with diversity from many countries. However, if you move to a small province especially on the east coast, I found quite many are narrow minded conservative even hatred towards other races. And, also it's vice versa like some white women have the same idea that they want to just enjoy not want serious relationship or have an idea that they don't want a boy friend who is not in their race it means for them other races are just a group of people they just want to kill time while they are in Korea or wheresoever.

Is it really so bad in Canada with crime and is it really dangerous for women to return home in the evening? Here in Russia, in a city with a million inhabitants, I have not encountered crime at night in decades. I like to walk at night (both late at night and after midnight and around dawn) with a video camera or SLR, sometimes with a tripod. Never seen aggression. But I walk in the city. In the city center or in residential areas. Perhaps somewhere on the outskirts of the city or in small towns it is more dangerous, or is it still very rare to encounter crime in our country.

I've lived a year in Canada and it's a lot better than France, I was shocked to see women walk alone at night in the middle of summer in short shorts (should be normal everywhere, but was impressed by the sight, not as common in France). The only time I got catcalled the friends of the guy apologized for him (was drunk). That being said, I always said I'll die in the street if that's the price of freedom. I would walk alone at night in high heels in Paris and nothing truly bad never happened except men trying to "flirt" and not taking no for an answer (that was pre-MeToo hopefully the city got better since). Like you said by avoiding certain places you're good, now do you *feel* safe? nah. I think it has more to do with the crowd. In Seoul, people won't try to steal you can leave your stuff nobody will look at it, pickpockets aren't a thing, people don't make unecessary comments to strangers, men won't look at you with that disgusting look (the only time I've seen it in Seoul : foreigner men). In that sense the crowd feels safe to be around.

한국인과 연애를 시작하기 전에 그들의 연애나 결혼관을 은근슬쩍 파악하는 것이 중요해요. 여러분이 외국인이어서 enjoy 상대가 아니라, 많은 한국인들 중에 연애와 결혼은 별개로 생각는 경향이 강합니다. 여성, 남성 관계없이 그런 부류의 사람들은 결혼상대를 선택할때, 사람보다는 조건과 배경을 선택합니다. 재산 또는 능력. 자신의 재산과 지위(학위 직업 등)에 비슷한 수준의 사람을 선택하는 거죠. '결혼은 현실이야'라는 말을 하는 그 사람이 바로 그런 부류입니다. 이런 경향은 고학력 고소득일수록 강해진다는 건 한국인이라면 아는 사실입니다. 여러분이 어학당에 다니고 있다면 그 학교에서 다른 학교와 미팅이나 소개팅을 할 떄 어떤 옵션을 선택하고 요구하는지 관찰하면 쉽게 알 수 있을겁니다. 여러분도 느끼셨겠지만.. 한국이란 나라는 엄청난 속도로 발전하는 과정에서 '물질주의와 성과,능력주의'가 강력하게 자리잡은 나라란 걸 아셔야 해요. 그러니까 썸을 타는 단계에서 상대의 가치관을 파악하는 것이 중요합니다. 그래야 끝이 보이는 관계에 인생을 낭비하지 않을 수 있어요 그리고 '부모의 반대'를 핑계로 대는 것은.. 여러분이 외국인이어서가 아니라 헤어지고 싶어하는 치사한 방법중에 하나에요. 같은 한국인에게도 써먹는 대사입니다 옛날이라면 모를까.. 요즘 부모떄문에 결혼 못한다는 사람은 극소수의 사람들입니다 끝으로 여러분 나라는 모르지만.. 한국 클럽에서 시작된 만남에 진지한 관계를 바라는 것은 모래사장에서 바늘을 찾는 것과 같은 확률입니다. 한국에서 클럽은 즐기러 가는 곳이자, 이성을 찾기위한 장소이며 그상대는 원나잇 그 이상을 생각하고 있지 않습니다. 거기서 지속되는 관계라도 대부분 잠자리가 목적일뿐이라는 점을 명심하세요.

People are weird regardless of the country. Anyway, I understand foreigners who avoid Koreans. I would also avoid. I don't live in South Korea, but I have friends who were dumped because their Korean boyfriend finally wanted to have a family with a Korean woman. I would be very afraid of it being a temporary diversion, a "trophy" as some people say.

In many cases, the "Japanese" who actively approach Whites in Japan are actually ethnically Korean. Both men and women. Japanese of Korean descent. Koreans who grew up in Japan. Japanese and Koreans are totally different in ethnicity. Whites do not seem to realize this.

It goes both ways. I know a couple of Korean girls who have dated white guys. The white guys were kind of trophies for them too,

if i say it as a korean. they used to meet korean students in university. u guys need to meet officer or worker. they has seriously mind of dating

케나다 여자가 한국남자에게 저런 대우를 받는 이유는 팔에 문신이있고 문란하게 보여지는게 가장 큰 이유죠😅

Job discrimination for certain types on non-Japanese at 3:48. There was a time when Japanese employers often requested a color photo with a person's job application. ESL schools were famous for doing this. It meant that white applicant's were favored over darker skinned persons.

OK, and? In the US, canada and UK right now White people are being pushed to the back of the line due to 'affirmative action" bullshit. At least I know in SK as a White woman I'll actually be able to get a job!

I absolutely admire the canadian interviewee's eloquence! As a korean who has a number of caucasian friends living in korea, I've always heard the complaints about the "foreigners vs us" mentality and the "white horse" fetish, but i couldnt quite pick point to why these things happen. Then she was spot on with her logical reasoning. I know such discriminatory behaviors and fetish are some of the things korea needs to progress in to promote multiculturalismq, but all issues can be fixed by addressing the issue. I wonder if my italian girlfriend felt like a trophy when she came to korea. I need to self-reflect a little. Anyway, huge props to you!

단지 2명뿐의 인터뷰가 아쉽네요

The red head was so honest about the privileges of being white in Asians countries. I respect the interviewer for asking her to be more specific.

If she wasn't a foreigner, someone would have looked at her Because there's a person who does an interview with the camera

Yes, she is right. I think this is the same in China and Japan.

You're wrong, it is not the same in China. Chinese men won't behave white women as the so-called "white horse", they want a serious relationship with her and get marry then have kids with her

I love the honesty of the first girl. It's refreshing to see someone so self aware

We want more white women in south korea. White women is considered the most beautiful women of all race. I want to marry a white woman.
