| the real problem, actually, is when you ALREADY have a facebook account with 5+ years worth of "questionable" pictures/videos/posts and your hagwon owner wants to friend you. |
It's not a problem if you know how to work privacy filters. |

i was thinking the exact same thing.
If you say something, online or otherwise, be prepared for it to get out there.
If you can't stand by what you say, don't say it. |

It's foolish to befriend Korean coworkers on FB if you plan to blog honestly about what happens in Korea, whether it directly involves them or not. You have to ask yourself if you have a politically correct personality and can naturally censor yourself. If so, you can befriend your coworkers but I still wouldn't recommend it. You will have to be super careful because Koreans are SO easily offended. Are FB friends worth more than your paycheck? Personally, I'd rather walk over hot coal or shovel sh !t than constantly "save face" for the Koreans, so I avoid FB altogether. |
Or you're just offensive? |

No, they're really really sensitive. A slightly negative comment about bibimbap somehow got some Japanese man death threats. |
