So isn't it REALLY the western girls who have it better (assuming that the potential guys are of simmilar standard to those back home...) as they have a bigger pool to choose from, are literally garuanteed their pick of the guys around them and thus even the girl who might not be that hot back home can date / shag / one night stand above her usual league be it a K guy or a waygookie?


Western girls have it better in Korea if you assume we're just looking for a good time, but that's true of women everywhere isn't it? Generally speaking, if an average-looking woman is down for nsa sex, she can get it from anyone she wants.

Ladies, if you're reading, and this happened to you, please share.

location and demographics go a long way when it comes to forming relationships among western females here in Seoul.

first, OP, where do you live? if you're anywhere more than a 15-20,000won cab ride away from hongdae or itaewon then you're in for an uphill battle. luckily, myself and other guys included have been able to date western-girls who live in Seoul proper ...but i've been rejected countless times given that I live in Suwon. let's just say i drunkenly crashed at the jim-jill bong at 5am a lot in between relationships. "gotta work for what you want!"

second, how old are you? a lot of these foreign girls are fresh off the BA-boat and as i've noticed recently, are getting A LOT prettier. i guess you gotta thank those superficial kids for making above-average physical appearances a requirement on the application! granted, i can say with confidence that the new generation of female english teachers are more attractive and coming in droves.

you also need to have the garden variety set of values (patience, endurance, stamina) ...putting in full on friday and saturday nights of drinking in itaewon and hongdae is hard work on the body!

but don't limit yourself to just drinking. get into a lot of foreigner networks. the weekend afternoons are prime for meeting foreign girls out and about. i'm not a hasher, but i know a lot of girls who do it. shit, i met a girl at a book exchange at 3pm on a saturday afternoon and ended up seeing her for 3 months.

if you make it a priority then you'll come out with some results--not to sound like an asshole, but you mentioned you fancied western girls but had no clue about clubFF--which in my opinion, is alright, but the focal point of the better clubs in hongdae. make hongdae your hub, that's where all the girls are and also, the military are unable to go there because of how close the womens' univeristy is to the vicinity of the clubs--ASSAH!

i hope this was helpful, however, if you could only manage to absolve these women of the boyfriends' they left behind... haha, i hope you look forward to that mess!

I can honestly and ashamdely say I haven't had any other favorable encounters with foriegn women I was actually really attracted to other than these and three hot women I met in and had encounters with encounters in Itaewon (one Japanese, two American and 2 of them were 8/9 out of ten kind of girls physically) - in 5 years.


Did the Japanese girl make that same face that they always make in all of the pornos while you were doing it?

That happened to me, and more than one of my female friends. Things never really clicked with a K-man for me, but quite a few of my friends wound up marrying local boys.
