Korean Job Discussion Forums

[Rock]

I'm reflecting on what the Taiwanese had said too, personally wanting to say that I'd really, really liked Korean's hospitality, generosity, food, and nature. What I'd disliked , however, was this.

There were too many impolite intrusions in public life, a sort of insensitivity ensuing where Korean's had a sort of disregard for your identity, and quite a lot of belligerence. This latter comment is something Korean's must correct, and what I think reflects what others say.

But comments here also show a disregard and defensiveness on the part of the Korean's behalf. Some wish to imply you're being a white racist. What I'd said kind of just goes to show that there's a disliking for Korean behaviour in many parts of the world, and then there's this.

American's have all ready been judged by some to be the culprit with Korean misfortune, especially in all the military/political arena. A few here invoke this. Think, then, if there's a social defect of character that other countries recognize if Korean's but don't bring trouble on themselves and aren't all that innocent.

Not to argue or anything really, but can you please watch where you put apostrophes? I know it's the latest fashion to misuse them, but sometimes I struggle to understand what I'm reading due to wrong usage.

I see. Thanks for that, I've still got some anti-Jap slogans to make for next weeks' classes so must be off. Japanese monkeys!

Thanks for the sarcasm. I've been thinking about my comment since I posted it, and apologies to anyone that's offended. It was supposed to be ironic.

I was thinking about the Japanese racism a lot this week. For whatever reason my students have been making comments about Japan and I've been wondering why. The K-teacher didn't say anything about it and I felt I had to, so it's been running around in my little brain. Obviously you wouldn't know what's been happening in my classes this week.

I know that I am, like a lot of people, a little bit racist. It's programmed into us in all our societies. But, I'm married to a Thai person and for what its worth, live in Asia. At least I'm aware of my weaknesses.

I blame the English public school system and the Royal Navy, all those tight pants, no shirts and extended tours at sea. Helloo Ducky!
