Spent 3 hours in Bundang today and was approached by 3 groups of Christians wanting to save my soul. WTF! Do I look like a sinner? Twisted Evil Do these people get a commission if I join the God Squad?

they are far worse in Itaewon, much more agressive. Have had them come up to me walking down the street saying "do you want to go to church with me tomorrow" like wtf are you? Evil or Very Mad

2 weeks ago me and a friend were waiting for my wife at the subway station and this woman comes up to us and goes "can you help me, I'm a pastor..." we should of started holding hands to pretend we were gay


The funniest ones I see day in and day out are in Myeong-dong. All the hustle and bustle yet they are there on their mikes. What got me was during the past few weeks there has been the Myeong-dong festival going on and they have a stage set up. Well there was a metal band playing at a loud level and there they were just doing their thing, I couldn't hear myself let alone anybody near me

Makes me wonder how many people have they converted down there?

By and large the most aggressive God squaders I've seen in my travels are in Korea. No wonder that Korean got his head lopped off in Iraq

Watch out for the "hottie" squads.

Outside Doota dept store in Dongdaemun I was approached by three very, very good-looking young women who were way too friendly and flirty. Two of them spoke near-fluent English. I was kind of enjoying myself but getting uncomfortable because my wife was just about to arrive!!

So, after chatting and flirting and laughing their heads off at my lame jokes they finally pulled out the Jehovah Witness stuff from their handbags. If you had been there you would have seen me deflate like someone stuck a pin in me. Here's me thinking I'm a super-hot stud then to realize all they wanted was my mortal soul!! Crying or Very sad

They wandered off eventually. 5 minutes later I saw them laughing and joking with another foreigner 30 meters away. Holy tramps!!

Total honey-trap.

These clowns are everywhere. Last week I was walking along the Eastern coastline and wandered through a small hamlet?? of ramshackle traditional houses. The God Squad were on a street corner singing their guts out. Later, as I was walking back through the township a SUV stopped and a guy wound down his window. He gave me a church/business card, said "Jesus loves you," and drove off. What is it with these people? He didn't even give me free tissues (toilet paper) like the rest of these pests who continually stop 'the foreigner'.

has anyone else experienced the 'hallelujah!' guy at chungmuro station? i used to use that station every day when i lived round there and i can't count the number of times this old geezer going up and down on the escalators said 'hallelujah! jesus loves you!' to me. the fact that i saw him there so often and at different times of the day, led me to believe that he literally spends most of his waking life travelling up and down the escalators waiting for white people to come by so he can tell them the good news.

I generally inform then my God takes such a dim view of conversion attempts, pull out my jihad sword and ululate aggressively. That usually does the trick.

No, but I run into the cock-eyed hallelujah woman in Sinchon/Ewha/Hongdae all the time.
