I may or may not be a poop-magnet (I don't want the censors coming in)
I have a lot of strange stuff happen to me, or around me. I will tell you what has happened in the last week.
1. I was in a game room playing Crazy Taxi and some ajosshi starting kicking stools over like a spoiled little child. I asked him why and he started bitching at me.
2. Yesterday I had salt thrown on me by a local psycho ajumma. The neighbours all say she is moonstruck. She didn't apologize, made an excuse, and yelled at me as if I wronged her.
3. Some psycho ajosshi was shouting and swearing at himself on the street. Then he saw me, approached me, and tried to hug me.
Maybe I will be the next psycho. This shit is driving me up the wall. Is it me, or is it something in the water? |

Fight back. 
Seriously, that's weird. Though I think we all have had days (even weeks) where we felt like freak magnets. |

I hear ya.
A couple of months ago, at least once a week, whenever I got on the subway I unknowingly would sit near or next to one of the many English speaking Korean preachers who would talk to me about how great God was.
That was a weird month.

Hey, OP, you @!*&%$?!! -- I just sent you a PM! Yeah, I sure gave you a piece of my mind!
Trouble is, I gave you too big a piece, so I'm a little short now. C'mon, give it back, ok?

I don't know if it depends on where you live.
I have lived in poor areas, somewhat poor, very poor, and somewhat affluent areas. I frequent many areas regularily.
The ajosshi trying to hug me happened by Jamsil.
The ajumma throwing salt on me is in Bucheon, as was the man kicking stools.
I used to live in Ilsan (hence the name), and I had my fair share of crazy experiences, though Bucheon seems to have more. |

You definitely caused this one. Only a fool speaks to someone who is behaving like that... |

About how great God was or is?
Sorry, I'm being pedantic. |

No, I'll just repeat what other waygooks say almost anytime something like this happens: "It's just part of their culture. It's a different culture. You have to remember that this is their country."
Five minutes to a few days later a Korean will ask you, "so how do you like Korea? What do you think about Korean culture?" lol |
