....a little advice.
I'm not sure how long you've been here, but you're not Korean.
You don't blend in.
That being said, people can't help but notice you. So when you do things like openly pick your nose, people CAN see you. After you pick your nose, look at it, and "discretely" run it through your hair, we notice, and we want to puke. When you pick it a second time, look at it, put your hand down and look around, then pick it out of your fingernail with your teeth, we notice, want to puke, and really cringe.
I almost gagged. The girl beside you was having a hard time not puking. You're not discrete.
If this sounds familiar to your behaviour, a word of advice.

I can't judge that based solely on appearance alone.
Perhaps the country where grown men still read comic books? But that's Korea.... he wasn't Korean I know that much!  |

I can tell an American a mile off from a Brit.

Actually dressed quite well. Likely coming from work.
Nice slacks, button down shirt, dockers, etc. The comic book was the only thing that looked out of place.
That and the finger up the nose. |

What about his hair? short hair is always a good indicator of someone of the British persuasion. |

Bad teeth is also a good indicator of unhealthy eating habits - who has the most obese population in the world? Thats right Einstein,does that mean all these fat people will have beautiful teeth? 
Seriously, your stereotype is 300 years out of date!  |

No idea, I shave my head every so often and most blokes I know do the same. You don't see many Englishmen with long flowing locks! |

I remember sitting in the lounge of a capsule hotel in Japan, looking at the back of a guy's head, and determining his ethnicity from that alone. Very short, blondish hair, small round head, a single gold earring. Turned out to be a lovely guy-- a forklift driver from Hull, I think. |
