My best friend is Korean and I want to fix those stereotypes in your heads.
1. Not all Korean guys are dickheads. The cocky Korean guys you see all the time are probably the sociopaths who HAD to immigrate to the US to start anew, but ended up getting worse. A lot of Korean guys are really nice and fun to hang out with...just not those guys.
2. Not all
Korean girls are fangirls. There ARE a lot of girls who hate the
electronic sounds and gay-looking idols. Instead they like Korean hiphop or indie, which talk about things more important than money, cars, and women.
(also anyone who says pretty Korean girls are
backstabbers and bitches is just kidding themselves.)
3. Not all Korean kids excel at math and science. I know most of them are, but that's just because the schools in Korea run a very tight curriculum in math and science. it really is not different. You can look at it as cramming.
4. Not all Koreans are weird dressers. Yes, I do realize some guys wear sweater vests and tight
button-down shirts and so on. But Korea is well known for its unique
street fashion.
(They do wear abercrombie and hollister, though.)
5. Not all Koreans hate Japan. Actually only the idiots hate the country itself. Most of them hate the cruel
unhumane things that Japanese did to Koreans when Korea was Japan's territory, for 34 years.
6. Not all Korean guys love starcraft. Actually starcraft is really kind of dead now. If you tell people you play starcraft, they WILL call you a nerd.
