 Posted: Sat Sep 22, 2007 7:43 am Post subject: King Baeksu--a netijun favorite. |
 |
|
I was looking at the Politics and Economy board at gesomun and for some reason a person had decided to translate this thread into Korean and post it on there. A lot of the people were interested in what King Baeksu had to say, which was this:
| Quote: |
Ask 10 different Koreans what color the sky is and you will get ten different answers.
Many Koreans do not like to admit that they don't know something so they'll just make stuff up.
For others, their answer will depend on their mood at a particular moment.
And for many more, they may answer according to what they think you want to hear, or to spin a positive image of their country to the foreign visitor, and so on and so forth.
Wait, come to think of it, maybe I'm just talking about Dave's ESL Cafe! |
The netijun overreaction is hilarious:
이 백수새끼 뭐라 헛소리 하는 거야? ;;
______________
이색휘 정신상태가 위험해..
무슨사고칠지 모를놈이다..
______________
이새뀌가 그 유명한 마약 대마초피면서 애들가르친다는 강사냐?
______________
얘는 우리나라의 색에 관한 표현이 다양한 것을 착각한 것이 아닐까??
우리조차도 다 알 수 없을 정도로 다양하고 때에 따라선 조합해서 표현하기도 하잖아.
얘가 착각한 것은 맞는데... 전혀 근거없이 착각하진 않은 것 같아서... 길에서 지금 하늘색이 어때? 물으면 상황에 따라서 다양한 말이 나올 것 같기도 한데
This guy speculates about King Baeksu's real name: King Baeksu 이 놈 혹시 스캇 버거슨인가? ;;
For those who don't read Korean, basically they are calling King Baeksu a 'nom' and 'saeki'; one dude asked if he shows up to teach class high (from "hemp" lol); the last guy is apparently (unless I'm misreading) trying to justify 10 people giving 10 different answers, as though King Baeksu's hypothetical story were in fact true.
It looks like Baeksusaekkishibalnom had better watch his back.
And as a word of warning to the rest of you drugged-up, crazy Yanks thinking of cutting up, just see what venom awaits you:
양키들이 미쳤나..

| They really are the filth of the planet. Perhaps a swift return to the days of the Japanese occupation is in order. Mind you, I'd probably be bitter if I had a 0.5cm p3nis. |

Yeah, I know that site. For some reason my threads seem to be popular there...
EDIT: Man, those comments left by the Koreans truly are hilarious - I dare them to say them to our faces! I DARE them!

| In all fairness, though, KB is to that site the way JAD/LaVuda is to this site.... well, except that KB is more correct in a classical western way.... |

Are you one of those delusional "oh my god, those polite Japanese are such god-send angels" Japanophiles?  Speaking of venomous and irrational online posting, check 2CH and come back if you think they are any slightly better. 2CH is the biggest Japanese forum site.

It's quite funny that you often see these Gesomoon users comparing their lowness to 2CH Japanese. |

2CH isn't that bad. Of course you get a few idiots posting hate on such a large forum, but it's not so overwhelming. That kind of netizen 'culture' is just not as prevalent in Japan (not to mention easier to ignore), and you sure don't get the kind of cross-over freaks posting all over the place, like some Koreans and Chinese (like even trolling on Daves)... |

A few idiots. Are you sure? I have to wonder how you define "a few" indeed. It greatly depends on which 板(board) you look at, of course. There is not much hate on, for example, theＰＣ等 boards. Now if you look at the boards under 世界情勢 (current events in the world) category...
Btw, I additionally found this about King Baeksu from the gesomoon thread Qinella gave.

스콧 버거슨이 야망 큰 한국 여자친구한테 차인 이후로는 쓰레기 랩가사같은 글만 써대던데.. 통찰이나 관찰은 없고 지 꿀리는대로 과격한 감정의 분출만 엿보이더라.
예전엔 그냥 아무 느낌도 없었는데, 그가 쓴책을 보니, 문화제국주의적인 태도를 가졌으면서 그걸 인정하지 않는 그런 모순적인 글쟁이가 된 것 같다. 이글을 보면 또 비판을 수용하지 못하는 독선적인 한국인이라고 욕하겠지 ㅋㅋ |
Translation:
"After having been dumped by an ambitious Korean girlfriend, it seems Scott Burgeson began writing only articles like junky rap lyrics. I could find no insight or observation but gushing of his own violent emotions. I used to feel nothing before.. but as I read his book, it looks he has become a contradictory writer who has cultural imperialistic attitude but can't admit it. If he sees this, he will b!tch me that I'm a self-righteous Korean who cannot take criticisms lol"
For those who are not familiar with the dark side of the K-netizenry, I should say these folks are generally mean to everyone. Just from this thread, some may characterize them as only xenophobic losers just targeting foreigners but on different topics, you will see them just as harshly bashing other Koreans. |

First of all, godamn bro, your English is getting off the chain. Compared to last year's postings, this is far better. Keep it up.
Second, I had never heard of this Scott Burgeson before looking it up after reading the same post you quoted above. If you look at his site, there are a few Koreans who have praised his work there. I've personally never read any of it, so have no opinion. |

I'm glad to hear you say that as you've seen me for a while. These days I try to read books or articles about diverse topics besides my thick engineering textbooks. And posting on internet forums like this helps!  Hope your Korean's gotten better. It was pretty good last time I read what you wrote anyway.  |
