Ya know instead of us talking about working/living in Korea as we do here I was just wondering is there some kind of site that is primarily geared towards Koreans in which they go to so they can talk, rant and bitch about us?

Haha.. funny question. Have you ever read Korean Times?
Korean media in general is a great outlet of spewing out hatred against foreigners. Not long ago, there was anti-spectrum (sp?) website - dunno if it still exists.

This is all in English. They will, as you put it, "talk, rant and bitch about us" enough to amuse, or make you wanna burn down their house. They really like to slam The Chinese, The Japanese, Southeast Asians, us, and well just about anyone who isn't Korean.

OK, I looked into it a bit further. One one hand, it seems very biased and way worse than eslcafe.com. At the same time, from what I can tell, it seems to be dominated by 2-3 posters. I wouldn't be surprised if this was created by the same people that started the anti-spectrum website.

eslcafe.com has a pretty large number of posters - thus the number of opinions is pretty diverse. That site seems to reflect the opinions of 2-3 people. There is a big difference. Still, it does pick up all of the negative media coverage about non-Koreans in Korea - so it can be useful in that sense.

Here I'm an apologist, there I'm a hater.
