What's the word for people who get high off their own perceived suffering again?

Great clip isn't it? That guy is the stereotypical angry gyopo. You can meet guys like that in jazz bars in the gangnam area any day of the week. He loved the f word didn't he?

Economic drive + Media image manipulation + Racism + Hypocrisy at its finest.

He is not representative of gyopos in general. He is a good example of the 'angry gyopo.' They are a special breed. There are many different kinds of waegooks. Do you mean the trainwreck kind?

I was just wondering if you meant there's a stereotype that gyopo are some angry psychos or something. Guess that's not what you said. Wink

It's really hard to understand anything said in the video. I gave up after about a minute of trying to listen. Seems he has a good grasp of English, but his pronunciation is just horrible.

Yes he constructed some decent sentences but he was foul mouthed.

all the gyopos i've met in real life have been amongst the nicest people i've met in korea, far more impressed with them than, oooooh, say 80% of the whiny whiteys. however, most of the gyopos online and on daves have been absolute freaks.
