Posted: Wed Jan 07, 2004 2:09 am Post subject: Interesting things said by Koreans! |
|
|
Sometimes Koreans say the funniest things (and sometimes not so funny).
Here's a selection:
1. "The American soldiers deliberately murdered 2 young girls!"
me: What?! You mean that accident?
"They ran right over them! It was murder!"
me: You know the difference between muder and an accident right?
(we talked more but it seems that an accident involving Americans is murder. He said the only solution was for the US army to pull out of Korea. A few months later when the US army threatened to pull out, he had completely changed his story. If the US left now, they would be irresponsible).
2. (4 years ago in Australia when I didnt speak Korean. I was with a Korean girl friend in a bar in sydney. we were approach by a what looked like a Korean english language student. He talked to my friend but I couldnt understand what he was saying. she told me later. the conversation went on for about 10 minutes but ill make it short)
HIM "Excuse me. If you dont mind id like to talk to you for a moment. It seems that you are associating with this foreigner. I dont know what kind of relationship you are in but i want to tell you not to disgrace the Korean race by dating him. All the foreigners want to do is have sex with Korean girls anyway. I know you probably want to learn english but I would advise you to stay away from him" etc etc
3. Korean girl I met at the trainstation who comes back to my place... before we do anything she says "Lets get married!"
me: why would I do that?
"Ill have sex with you every day"
me: but im pretty popular anyway. Why do you want get married?
"I need a visa to live in Australia"
me: hmmm... cant do it.
(she then said she would do it for english lessons!)
4. On a date with a HOT K girl "My religion [some sort of christian sect] prohibits miscegenation"
me: say wah!?
5. Korean guy in a bar "During the colonial period Japan planned to move their capital from Tokyo to Seoul!"
me: I dont think that is correct...
6. Korean girl tells a silly lie before she is bedded "I am a virgin. you are my first guy"
7. Silly question that I get from Koreans and not Japanese "Which is better, Korea or Japan?" (I skillfully dodge that question)
8. Korean former taxi driver "When I was taxi driver sometimes drunk girls would get in the cab without money. If they couldnt pay I took them to a love hotel and they could pay me there"
9. Korean girl "Teach me english!"
me: why would I do that?
"why not?"
me: well, whats in it for me? you think its normal to ask someone you just met to teach you english?
"Um... ok, ill be your friend!"
me: ...........
10: At a "room salon". ME: hands up everyone who has a boyfriend! (no hands go up)
ONE GIRL "none of the girls here have boyfriends"
END.
Anyone else have interesting things said by koreans? |

ajumma student: I don't like the Chosun Ilbo
me: why not?
ajumma student: It was pro-Japanese.
me: It was, when?
ajumma student: During the occupation (which ended well before she was born).
She's usually very intelligent and biased too  |

Shak you're Australian right?
Mate, shut the *beep* up you're making the rest of us look bad!
It sounds like you've got some issues bubbling away in the background brother. What the hell are you doing?
Take it easy man, relax.

How about this one:
'Korea is just like Canada. There are some clean parts and some dirty parts'.
I didn't have the heart to tell him that the dirtiest places in Canada are similar to the cleanest parts of Korea. |

The "silly lie" part was uncalled for. But most of the points were simply recounting things others have said. Take away the "stud bragging" (which I presume is your main gripe) and you'd have some pretty cutting observations. |

my guess:
Quote: |
9. Korean girl "Teach me english!"
me: why would I do that?
"why not?"
|
this, full on stumped the man
Quote: |
6. Korean girl tells a silly lie before she is bedded "I am a virgin. you are my first guy"
|
i had middle school students tell me they would never kiss their boy/girl friends until after uni.
THAT'S wacky
Quote: |
10: At a "room salon". ME: hands up everyone who has a boyfriend! (no hands go up)
ONE GIRL "none of the girls here have boyfriends"
|
your wife must have been furious

The BITTER BITTER irony of what you say here, postceeding your other stories is ludicrous. You are laughable. |

When I was teaching at a hogwon in Seoul:
Student: I don't need (to) learn English.
Ted: Why?
Student: Soon everyone (will) speak Korean.
Me:Really? How?
Student: England (is) small and (was) powerful and everyone now speaks English. Korea (is) small and strong, so soon everyone (will) speak Korean.
Me:
Actually I did not do that. I told the student that until Korea starts conquering the world he has to learn English. |

Actually the "stud bragging" was the good part...
At least it was entertaining.
The rest of the "observations" are merely cheap shots and spleen venting on the part of someone who cannot and does not want to try and understand the differences between here and other places.
Its a common enough practice.
