Korean Job Discussion Forums

[Sliver]

Well just finished work and am hanging was hanging around (decided to come home to have dinner) before going to the fireworks in Pusan tonight. Walking to the bus was a YBM Sisa group of workers doing promotion.

The girl says hello as does the guy. Turns out he was from Argentina but Korean so we chatted for a while. The girl wanting to speak English then started the usual barrage of innane questions. You know what they are no need to elaborate.

Anyways.... up comes some mother with her child and this girl 'orders' me to say hello to the girl. I do so but almost immediately after tell the girl 'I'm not your monkey.' We both laugh and I give her a chance.

Anyways, about thirty seconds later another mother comes up with her child and she does the same thing.

OK so I will be a monkey. I happen to work at a kindergarten and had some colored paper for origami in my bag. Also, I know how to make many things. So I pull out a piece of paper and start to make a bird that can like 'flap' its wings. Everyone is happy with the monkey.

Then I ask the YBM girl if she has 10,000 won so I can show her a trick. She doesn't but she has 5,000 won so I say that is okay. I fold it and fold it until it becomes very small and slip it between my fingers so that, like, by slight of hand, it dissapears.

Then I ask, "Are you being paid to stand here and talk to mothers?" to which she answers "Yes". Then I say, "Well now so am I, bye!"

I walked off leaving her standing there; I didn't look back so I don't know about her expression, and caught my bus.

[Sliver]

You are forgiving of others and have often positvie things to say and then you call me a dic.k.

Thanks.

She would have found the money in her pocket later, where I left it, also I would hope that she found out about other things. Like, to think, about what an answer might be, before she asks a question.

She asked me the "Do you like Korean food?" type of steriotypical question ( after knowing I have lived here for four years and those that know me know I am far from thin) and then asked me "Why do western men like Korean women?" because she heard me talking (eavesdropped on) to the Argitinian Korean that I was married to a Korean.

I started to answer her with some Tsu "If you can describe how you love someone then you don't really love them", relating the question directly to my wife and then realizing this was beyond her grasp, tried to simplify the answer by quoting "The Dragon' "Men covet what they see everyday" and apon realising that this too was above her, started to explain in Korean, where apon she said once again that she wanted to speak English and asked me or rather stated "Western men think Korean Women are thin and delicate?x?" This woman judged not only western men but also my wife in a way.


I answered simply "some are, some are not' and then, before I could say more, the next mother came.


I have had different points of view before with others on this board and though at times have been too sardonic I always have abhored namecalling and pettiness.

You stand as a somewhat defender of minority groups on this board on other threads because of peoples misguided preconceptions and then while judging me, without predjudice, proceed to use derogatory terms to describe me.


I am dumbfounded.

[Sliver]

I don't hate to agree with SJ having known his posts over the last few years here and also on Kblog with Shawner. I really am dumbfounded at the retort so quickly without precedent.

[jajdude]

AsmartasIajm,

Ihavetosay, Idon'tunderstand anything in this thread.

[Snowmeow]

You gave the reader the impression that you walked off with the girl's money which is what was souring about your post.

[Sliver]

psssst don't tell anyone

[Return Jones]

I'm guessing it was the crude title that was the turn-off.

[Sliver]

Yes it's all in the title so it seems

[JongnoGuru]

As I approached the end of the OP, I half-feared, half-expected seeing a line like:

"... and then after screwing her at the nearest yogwan, I gave the YBM chick her 5,000 won back".

[RACETRAITOR]

Hell, I totally agreed with what you did to the woman, and whether or not you gave the money back doesn't make a difference to me. She was exploiting you and you taught her a lesson.
