Well it is a little racist.
The point is do not discount the idea that the relationship might not last because there is more opportunities to meet/date other people. Korea can work for couples but some people have found out that living and working in Korea has broken people up. I know one married foreign couple that was pulled apart by "yellow fever". Thinking about it the guy ended up living and working full time in Vietnam.
It can be from as above or even other reasons.
"Yellow Fever" Sometimes people just move on and the relationship is over.
Always together. ALWAYS TOGETHER &*^% damn it For some couples in Korea they work at the same school. Now living and working together all the time can really strain relationships. Sometimes people who even love each other, just need some time to be apart. Add in the next one and it can really blow up.
Close Quarters. For many waygook get an apartment provided by there employer. Now some are lucky get an OK sized one (for Korea) Some people will get a apartment that is a shoebox. It might be a bit hard but livable for one person, it can be an ordeal for two people. Add in things like coming to share a single bed. No closet space. Heck, no arm space.
We are in this together... until something goes wrong. Life in Korea can be pretty laid back at times but sometimes it can get difficult. So if a job starts going south and person wants/has to leave Korea. What might have effected one person will drag down another. So maybe a couple will stay together and suffer together. Or it could break them apart.
Men like Korea, Women tolerate Korea. In general (GENERAL) men have better staying power in Korea. Waygook women usually leave after a spell. Women have an experience and time here, many men make Korea a life. So after a year, you can find the guy wanting to stay and give more time in Korea. The girl very likely wants to be getting the relationship moving on and growing. Women are a bit future orientated and are wanting marriage, children, a life/job back home. So there might be a pull to go back home that could break them apart. |
