| Do you think that Koreans have a forum similar to this in which they comment on English folk coming to Korea, and the various things that result? |

They have a parralel forum in the US where Koreans go over there(and talk about the same crap) or for kyopos that already live there.
Soompi i think it is.

A little more popular than here but the demographic is a little younger as well. |

It's quite a varied forum.. our own LMG is one of the top cats on the soompi boards.
The demographic is considerably younger iirc (I haven't bothered to go and check out the link since my last visit many years ago..).
I don't think any mirror Korean forums of Dave's would have such established members such as this.. unless it's some completely pro Korean, ultranationalist reactionary anti foreigner brigade that had a single common topic to harp on about. It'd probably grow tired very very quickly.. :)
:D
jae. |

"All kind of scary stuff..."
How do you like this though...

what is it like over there?
famous places of interest?
is it very dangerous there?
how are the people feeling after the war?? more depressed people?
how do u like the country? |
More depressed people. Famous places of interests? Very dangerous? Well firstly I'd reckon there are some pretty "depressed" people there because they can't grab their polaroid and go on day trips because it's pretty dangerous.
Or this thread...

You and I must've been there at the same time, peemil - I was just checking it out myself.
I feel kind of sick, like I ate an entire chocolate cake in one sitting.

A very apt description. That's the feeling that I was looking for. |

soompi's not that bad. i've been posting over there for awhile. sure they're younger and complain about stupid stuff etc. but if one were to come to this forum not knowing anything about it...they may think the same thing...    |
