This is not news to most of you, but I didn't quite imagine the extent of it until I saw it from myself.
http://www.gesomoon.com/zboard/zboard.php?id=web_soci&page=1&sn1=&divpage=1&sn=off&ss=on&sc=on&select_arrange=headnum&desc=asc&no=1379
This is just one of the dozens and dozens of websites that popped up when I typed my Dave's name (incognitoHFX) into Google out of boredom (I typed my real name, friend's names, et cetera).
They all start with things like: "This is what foreigners think of Korean movies...
This is what foreigners think of Lee Myung Bak..."
The post above is our active discussion on handbags. There is even a comments section!

Which is hilarious, because it's probably filled with ignorant drivel just like Dave's is. And so the Circle of Life continues. |

| I wouldn't call it being watched. I think many are just curious about westerners and the things they talk about. |

I know, it's still funny to see that someone went through the hassle of translating our dialogues into Korean and then post it up for discussion. We do the same thing to do them, essentially. Neat to see the other side. |

| It's a shame that we are not interacting directly and maybe learning something about each other rather than just speculating. |

I think that's a good thing in some ways, because it would help us if more Koreans know about how we feel about different things, because we foreigners have to interact with them and vice versa. Also, it would help them understand foreigners somewhat before living in the West if they choose to live there. |

I hate to break it to you, but we are not in Latin America; we are in Korea. |

| Yep, it worked for me, too. I noticed it said something about 미란다. I remember commenting about how there was this Italian soft porn movie called Miranda that would be on TV about every other week. Must be an old comment or something. |

| So what are these folks saying IncognitoHFX? Do they have favorite posts or anything? Is anyone developing a fanbase? |
