Of all the Korean talk this and Korean talk that which goes on here, do Koreans ever make there way on here to put in their 2 cents or otherwise complain?

LOL - there are Koreans here who are defensive about Korea and other things...

OTOH, I should imagine that those Koreans who come here are open-minded enough to accept that their country isn't the best in the world and could do with some improvements???

One of my favorite posters on here is Doggyji. He's Korean and great to discuss different points with.

total complete agreement about Doggyji. He brings interesting points into threads and manages to show another side of both Korea and other areas.

Seconded. He's perhaps the most level-headed person in this group.

Yes Doggyji is certainly one of the more reasonable posters on here. I haven't seen too many bad Koreans on here although this board attracts its fair share of angry gyopos. It's funny because Doggyji's tone is reminiscent of one of my best friends (a Korean). Doggyji, your 성 isn't 서 is it? Laughing

At one time there were a handful of Koreans who posted here. They were soon chased away. There were enough posters who would say things like: At work I have to bite my tongue and not say what I think about Korea. I don't want this place over-run with Koreans who attack me every time I tell the truth about Korea. In addition, I don't want to read their crappy Konglish posts.

There were enough of that sort that they even organized a group.

MissSeoul is a mystery Korean woman. Really don't know what to think of her.

I've noticed a few Korean posters that have surprisingly good English skills. It's difficult for them to surpress their patriotism though.

I get the feeling she is someone's sock and being used to get content for a certain website.

You're kind of giving me the feeling by this comment that it's you.

I'm sure there are Korean people who lurk in this site and take note of what we're up to. Every so often something gets into a newspaper.

Yes. I can't quote exact examples, but I remember seeing direct quotes from Dave's in Korea Herald articles, usually in the context of how horrible foreigners are...

Anyone that thinks MissSeoul is a real Korean woman is a complete dum bass.
