awesome

though the tall guy with sideburns didn't fit in at all until he started throwing up, then fit in as the one-outta-place-in-need-of-fun-loving as he read the bills until two soju mamas started pawing him

isn't soju mama just one step shy of ajumma?

More fuel to the fire that westerners are a bunch of drunken debauched men who are here to make fun at korean culture and make out with k chicks. I thought it was an ok tune, somewhat repetitive but not too bad an effort. You just have to hope that the korean netizens don't get a hold of it.

lighten up rawiri.

there's a western girl and korean men there too

more of a collegial fun time in the soju tent kinda thing.... no ridicule at all that i could sense... no parody either

but yeah, some korean netizens might be especially irked at the two korean women pawing that one guy

Pretty good except for the tuning on the mandolin (blame the soju for that one!).

I don't think it was dis-respectful at all. Actually, if I heard the words right, it was more critical of the kind of foreigner who comes here, gets a girlfriend, then doesn't ever even try to do anything for themselves.

Yes, there were some suggestive, k-girl-on-foreigner scenes, but, Koreans will just have to get used to the idea that foreigners will come here and date Korean women. I know they don't like it but they will have to get used to it.

So they were obviously going for the cheese factor, right?

Um, right?
