Umm... randomly, by typing in my user name in Google (ok, I was bored!), I came up with this weird page. It seems like some Koreans are watching Dave's ESL site, and commenting on what we're posting. I saw several names I recognized... For one example, I noticed, we were talking about T-shirts with funny sentences.

Check it out for yourself... weird!

For every post about Koreans there is an equal and opposite post about Waygooks. Its how the cyber world maintains balance.

But it is weird to see a number of the topics here translated into Korean and posted in their entirety elsewhere.

THey took a lot of interest in the fan death thing:

The Koreans are checking us out?? That's creepy! What business they got snooping around a board made for foreigners? Confused

No wonder posters wanna remain anonymous! Who knows who's lurking around here.

Anyone in the world can see this site. We are a window to the rest of the world for many Koreans. I kind of like it. I wish they could see me in the shower, too.

What's with the copyright at the bottom of each of those pages? Didn't we write that stuff? What's the copyright? The translation?

It's the site copywrite. It serves the same purpose as the copywrite at the bottom of this page.

I'm more annoyed with the Japanese Internet community now for stealing my ESL Cafe bingo card and using it to make fun of Koreans.
