people think that your either chinese or japanese, and when they ask you and you say your korean, they say North or South. Always assume South because they most likely are. People also say are you japanese or chinese, and then they say are you asian? People are dumb.
white person 1: Hey are you japanese
me (korean): no
white person 2: Chinese?
me: no
white person 1: wait are you asian. Speak asian for me
me: :c
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.
Racist: Why the hell is a stupid Asian in this school?!
1) People who are of Korean heritage or were born in Korea.
2) Objects or merchandise from Korea
No koreans do not all look the same, apparently all asians look the same. Wrong. Go get a new pair of eyes. All three major Asian countries have similar cultures but are distinctly different. If you get pissed that some country copied your country get over yourselves because you aren't part of that country. Your country probably copied too.

Koreans are one the most homogen races on the earth. The koreans have existed since 8000 b.c. The koreans have struggled much with fighting off chinese and japanese raids and have been fairly succsesful if you consider the amount of times they have been attacked and their population in comparison to the japanese and chinese people.
There are many modern predjudices about koreans as they would be more nerdy and stiff. These rumours are as much truth as the rumours about americans being fat, stupid and imperialists.
