You should be glad you don't speak Korean.

It's all trivial. We are about to go into the tank economically. By January, the koreans and the waygooks won't care. We'll all just be hoping to eat.

What is this? Am I mistaken, or did someone translate a Dave's thread into Hangul, and now Koreans are reading it?

They've translated a few threads and they're talking mainly about Miss Seoul, ESL Milk, and a few other posters. I'll get around to translating the first 6 pages of that thread but I'm not going to read and translate all 50. Apparantly somebody on this thread complained about the "evil hagwon bosses" or went on about "how hard foreign ESL teachers work", and that has caused quite a bit of controversy among overseas Koreans living in America.

Yes, now I'd like the Hangul comments to be translated into alphabet.

Considering the very negative things that are said about Korean people on this board. I'm sure a lot of Koreans will be really insulted. This is nothing but bad news. Get ready to be lynched.

To paraphrase: What? They say we drink feces? It is not we who drink feces - it is they who put feces on their faces!

guys, just use Google translate.



If you think it sounds too much like gibberish and bullshit, well thats just because it translates things too literally.

My favorite quote so far:

Why would a bunch of anonymous teachers care about what a bunch of anonymous Koreans think/write/say about what they think/write/say about Korea?
