Did I miss something, or is the OP, who I assume has never been to Korea from his OP, talking about EMart not providing bags? Wouldn't you have to live in Korea to know such a small detail?

Sorry if you are not trolling OP, but with a join date like yours it's more than likely.

No, you wouldn't have to live in Korea to know that. Perhaps he has been to Emart in China. Or maybe he has read or heard that somewhere (dude did say he was part Korean himself and that he reads these boards a lot). Ah, wth you're probably right. Whatever, it was an odd thing to mention either way. For that matter, this whole thread is just that.

That is all you need to know

It's like asking what are American girls like, as if there is anyone answer to that.

Are Korean women differerent from American women? I would say yes. A lot of it has to do with cultural upbringing. Also, there is a gender imbalance because so many females were aborted. At one point it was the highest in the world (which means now there are significantly more men than women in the 20s demographic).

Well I watched a lot of videos on korea and things like that, and have been always rerouted to these boards when I searched for a question. I even remember reading someones story about how he lived in a small town in nowhere and how the only way out was like a 45 min bus ride to a station to get anywhere good and how he viewed his life in korea as a prison sentence and all he did was play video games and go on the internet because he was in the rural countryside.

The OP isnt brain dead and actually USED the search function however the OP is a general novice when it comes to korea and the women in particular. I am asking for input, personal experiences, and even trends, doubt that would classify as a troll.

Seriously, asking for help and I get called a "troll" -.-

You're right in a way; "troll" is not the word I would use to describe someone who goes on the internet to ask strangers how to get girls.

Just to give you a fair shake, I think the main problem is that, if you had used the search function any great deal (trying searching the site through Google, btw), then you would have found quite a few threads that are all about Korean women, as it is a very common topic on this board that comes up what feels like once a month and turns into a 20 page monster thread where every aspect of the fabled Korean woman is excruciatingly analyzed. Thus, people assume that you either:

1) didn't search the site all that thoroughly; or
2) wrote the original post hoping to elicit the cornucopia of responses that would follow

As we are actually a bit overdue for our next thread on Korean women, I guess people just assume it's the latter. And as much as I would like to give some input on what to expect from the ladies here in The Land of the Morning Calm, it is seriously a ticking time bomb just waiting to go off. That is why this thread has ended up having a bunch of "they are women, duh" responses.

Haven't read through the dross of replies but OP to answer your question. Yes, you can get a koran girlfriend. Just like if you went Italy, Ghana or India for a year. You will find a girlfiend...eventually. It depends on you. Saudi Arabia, Pakistan and any place with Sharia law being the exception. Again, when and who (quality) you get depends largely on you but I've rarely met a guy, even the losers, who weren't able to convince at least one korean girl to date them. You wil have a poster say he knew someone who didn't and he may be true but there is an always an esception. You'd have to be in the most rural of towns and the biggest loser ever NOT to be able to get one.

Next question?

He's trolling. Look at the OP and the BS follow-up posts. Look at the OP again and see how much of a parody it is.


I think he is just a desperate douchebag. He should fit right in here.

The decent ones that want a real wife will go back home and find one. Asia is just playtime for western dudes. I've seen it many times, even guilty of it myself. In the end the odds are stacked against you.

Sam: Anton, can I ask you something?
Anton: Sure you can.
Sam: Do you ever get homesick? I mean, do you ever want to go back to France?
Anton: You know, I was never so much French until I came here. You know Superman?
Sam: Uh-huh.
Anton: Well, that's me. I'm Superman.
[all the cooks laugh loudly and syncophantically]
Anton: And France was like Krypton. You know, on Krypton everybody was Superman. You make a nice sauce, everybody makes a nice sauce. You say hello to a woman with your French accent, everybody say hello!
[all the cooks yodel "hello" with gusto]
Anton: But here, here on Earth, this is the place where I knew I had special powers. I tell the bankers about my little village in France, and they all say, how brave and amazing you are, Anton. I could read the phone book to a woman and they become hypnotized, wet as morning daisies.


This is what Korea is for the white male.
