In the last few months, several guys I have known in Korea, have made the mistake of lending money to k.girls; only to have the girl disappear off the map right after. Lucky for me, I am too much of a cold-hearted penny-pincher to go for that, but just a heads up to the guys who are a bit suckerish; maybe this is a funny trend in the k.girl community right now, as I have heard a few stories about it.

"Ha, ha, ha! Yah, two-million! How much did you ask him for?"

Seems to me when it comes to lending money to people the old saying always applies

'never lend more than you are willing to part with'

Not just K-girls. Don't lend money to anyone unless they are a long standing, trusted friend.

I never lend money... but i have leant it to friends previously- large amounts.
i had this one maye at uni. we bagan lending eachother like 20 bucks to begin with. After 3 years we were quite comforatable handing over $1000 or so if the other needed it. And got it back. of course the only problem being you may not get it back precisely when you want it.

k-girls have a tradition of recieving money from Boyfriends as gifts. Its not seen as something they have to return, in a country where men are the breadwinners.

Only lend money to your enemies.

Maybe that's why my (K-female) boss hasn't been paying my salary... she feels comfortable owing me?

I wouldn't give a K-girl money unless:
***(Working= AT work at that exact time)

1. She is working in a store

2. She is working in an eatery or drinking hole of some type.

3. She is working under a red light

If there is no service being rendered, the money is not changing hands.
