I often find that whenever I experience something that drives me crazy in Korea, I soon come to realize that this same thing occurs back home.

So with the intent of fostering a little balance and self reflection on this board................


For every Korean farmer who marries a southeast Asian mail order bride, there is an American who is doing the same with a eastern European one.


For every Korean wearing one of those gay-azz man purses, there is a sissy French man doing the same thing.


Hey this is fun!

For every one death from suicide in Korea, there is a death from a shooting in the USA?

Sorry, morbid, but true

Yeah, I'll come up with a Canadian example soon enought. I just thought the Yanks and the French were the best nationalities for my examples.

Yeah, every time i visit the homeland, i see correlations.
When I come back here, i'm sensitive to some of the more useless rants i read about Korea. I point out the comparisons, but nobody seemed to listen, or care.

I like this thread...

For every crazy cab driver here, there's an equally crazy cab driver back home (any city- not just nyc- a lot of them everywhere are a bit off)

For every "annoying noise on the subway" (one of the lamest threads here-ever) here, theres 10 awful noises, smells, and dangers back home.

For every unreasonable boss here, theres one (or many more) back home.

For every bad employee here....well, there's one less back home. Not all of you. But some....
