Have any of you read The Game by Neil Strauss? I just did, and thought it was highly amusing. Not to mention I think their techniques would work on the north american clubgoer subset (and I'm a girl who doesn't fall for arrogant guys, and doesn't like the Howerd Stern / Tom Leykis approach so I think that's saying something). Anyway, I'm curious whether The Game's techniques work on Korean women too!

Yes, and no. Most North American girls are gluttons for punishment and want some guy they can change. They are attracted to guys who treat them like dirt. Before you get offended, let me just go ahead and say that's true and I have seen this since I was born.

Does it work on Korean women? To some extent, but not really. While Korean women are quite dominating and want to change a guy, I think the language barrier would make them give up a lot sooner. Not to mention a white guy is still looked down on by many people here and not really considered long-term relationship material by most. Attitude, charisma, intelligence, and world experience are also no match for a "handsome face" and money in this country.

yup the techniques slightly adjusted can work great

but money and looks (esp being tall) do go a lot further here especially if you don't know the language well

Well I wouldn't say it's primarily about punishment. A lot of it involves girly, fruity, sensitive things, like giving personality tests, or doing 'magic' tricks. When one of the guys did a magic trick on an eastern european though, they all got freaked out, because they'd never encountered 'magic,' and her mom prevented him from pursuing the girl. Since Korean girls love talking about their blood types though, I bet they would dig the personality tests. I find that I'm using a lot of the techniques in everyday life, even though I'm not a guy and I'm not picking up girls.

I know this forum is kind of lacking in threads devoted to suspected pedophiles. I have an idea! Let's turn this thread into a Chris Neil thread too!

If you want to pick up total idiots, I guess some of those techniques from the book would work. But because of the language barrier, a lot of it will not work here.

If you want to attract quality, genuine people, just be sincere and be yourself. Of course in a bar, this rarely works.

I think in Korea, many foreigners, whether quality people or not, are doomed from the get go in terms of "picking up" women here (doesn't mean it can't happen, but be prepared for harsh rejections too). Among Koreans, there exists the stereotype that we are just trying to sex them up. So, an approach is often met with a negative response from the start, with no opportunity to prove that you are actually a decent person with something good to offer. Even if you are relatively handsome, tall, and dressed nice, it seems you have to somehow prove to them you aren't a reject from a sex-starved leper colony before you can even get anywhere.
