1. They don't heat their bathrooms. Seriously, in a place where you regularly drop trow and are often entirely without clothes, you would think that one might want a source of heating during the winter. Evidently, Koreans don't think so.
2. They drive like maniacs. Although I am sure that Koreans are not the craziest drivers on the planet, they are definitely the craziest drivers I've ever seen. I live on a one lane road, with no sidewalks, many pedestrians, and two directions of traffic. Plus there is no signage for the intersecting roads, so it is entirely up to the drivers to decide who has the right of way. Now if I were driving in this situation, I might drive a maximum of 5 miles per hour, or let's be honest, I would do everything in my power to not drive in this situation. However, if you're Korean, doing about 30 and slowing down to 25 at the intersections seems like a reasonable strategy. Also, red lights do not apply for the first three or four cars that pass under them, and if you decide your way is clear then one should feel free to simply ignore the red light all together and go on your way. Finally, all though this is heresay, apparently one of my friends has seen on multiple occasions, teenage boys, three or four to a motor bike, weaving in and out of oncoming traffic on major roads. So to my many friends and family who are doctors, if you come visit me, I'm afraid the odds of you having to be the first-on-scene at a gruesome accident are alarming high.

3. Jilted Korean women are 100% lunatics, I cannot stress this enough. Apparently, when Korean women are broken up with, stood up, or cheated on, it is completely appropriate to go absolutely apeshit. This includes pounding on the door of your boyfriend's (or ex-boyfriend's) apartment with your fists, your feet, or maybe a baseball bat for a good twenty minutes, all the while screaming like an enraged banshee. This exact scenario may have played out at the apartment next door to me just last night - it was very scary. I don't know if the woman actually had a baseball bat because I didn't have the guts to open my door and peak out, but it sure sounded like a blunt instrument was being used on the door. So, I locked my door just in case the tiny, but mad with fury Korean woman got confused on which door to attack, or simply felt the need to take her rage out on somebody in lieu of her absent boyfriend. However, I should have remembered that there is no reason to fear these women because there other places where they can take out their rage to punish their boyfriends. A crazy woman just last week beat the crap out of her boyfriends SUV with her bare hands. Ok, she used some items she found lying on the street, but she started the ordeal by punching both rear view mirrors off of the car. Then she used a traffic cone, a bucket, and whatever else she could find to continue the assault. According to one of my friends who lives on the floor of the boyfriend, he was home the whole time, but preferred to see his car destroyed rather than face the raging woman. It's amazing how scary a 5 foot 3, 95 lb woman can be when she is Korean and jilted.

Awesome. This sounds like a reality TV show in the making.
I can't stress enough how entertaining this is.
And people wonder why I have very little desire to go back to Korea...
When I was in Singapore they had these little food stands in all the malls that were allegedly "Korean street food." Mel and I got really excited about these hot dog things on sticks that were covered in french fries. I have no idea how they got french fries to adhere to the outside of the hot dog. And, sadly, due to a scheduling mishap and inconveniently-timed fullness we never did actually eat these things. My concern is that by the time we go back something else will be the trendy thing there and we won't be able to try the french fry-covered hotdogs on sticks. So I guess be on the lookout for them while you're over there and if you get a chance to eat them make sure to let me know if they are as delicious as I imagine or even more so.
I've forgotten how entertaining you are. And Naveen for that matter. Now you've got me craving french fries...which isn't all that unusual...maybe at 9:59am. Ah well, I'm setting a record!
Beth! They're showing the british version, which does NOT feature the kiss. Of course, in the book, they never have such physical contact. Only in America did they add that in so us sappy romantic-comedy addicts can have our fix.
The Korean drivers should be retested by DMV..I do not know what is their problem....they wouldn't even bother to say you sorry if they break your right of way or if they let you jump on the walkway to avoid crash with his car...how do they get their licenses!!! I wonder how many killed by them on road everyday or how many turned disabled.
Look at this picture, and you will find how Koreans are crazy.

Yes, Korean girls are crazy. My Korean roommate took me to court for allegedly threatening her, so I wrote a blog about her fucking a donkey.
Let me tell everyone something I am currently living in Seoul South Korea and I've been here for a while now.Fell in love with this amazing attractive Korean lady,we dated for 2 years,but after we got married everything just fell into shit.She became very controlling possessive and extremely selfish.She was making great money but was always bitching to me about money (because I was having problems finding a job ) She told me she was working a legitimate job but come to find out she was whoring her self out at a place called TEMPRO(it's a place where koreas top beautiful women work and they guys that come to this private establishment pay them very large tips,about $550 a night or even more for special services. But she always blamed me for what she did even tho she was hiding everything from me from the start.Now it's like we can't stand each other.If a Korean women introduces you to her mother then observe the mother cause the daughter will most likely be just like her.And my wife's mom was a creeper and was seeing another man while she was married....and I used to tell my wife when we argue that she was just like her mom and she used to get so upset when I say that...it's like an act they put on and somehow when we argue she always twists it around like it was all my fault...Korean girls hate to be made to look like they are the bad ones so their scapegoat is always putting the blame on someone else and as long as you with a Korean woman that will never be resolved.Anyway so she currently is still working at that place and always blaming me for her problems and never really considers what she is doing because in her mind she is never wrong. Now I've dated many Korean women and they all seem to have this secret agenda,but they are good at lies and deception, they always think their man is cheating on them but in all reality it's just a cover up of what they are doing on the side,check your wives gentlemen especially if they are korean and beautiful most girls like that take those easy jobs and easy money working at room saloons or TEMPRO houses but always complain about how hard their work is, I'm not saying all Korean women are like that but I guarantee that 90% of them are involved with some shady shit because they love money and Korean culture revolves around money,I mean look at Korean wedding,holidays,birthdays it all involves in giving money,this whole culture is pretty much backwards I suggest if you date a Korean woman date one that is living in America because the ones in Korea are typically psycho and I can say that because my wives mother even warned me and told me that her youngest daughter is a total fucking nut but I was In love. And for those who I offended well then you must be guilty, love in Korea is money..no money ,,,well good luck with a happy marriage life
Dog eaters are crazy and aggressive - Gooks, Chinks (not Taiwanese) and Vets. Germans at some point.
Money: For some reason the culture supports the notion that its impolite to ask what you do for a living but its ok to ask how much you make. GI s have a hard time playing on the slotmachines in servicemens clubs because either a korean women (be they wives, base employees or employee guests) are always on the machines. They actualy get mad if get paid out on machine that they've been feeding all night with teir husband's money (seldom their own).
Driving: Driving in Korea is a professional game of chiken especial in Seoul. There's lots of slow motion lane changes on the road. If you can get the corner of your bumper in the next lane you've got it made and can muscle your way in on the premise that the guy in next car is more willing to let you in than he's willing to scratch his car up.
Potential Human Torches: Until relativley recently it was not that unusual to see guys on motorcycles with stacks of propane or acetelyne tanks zipping up and down the sidewalks of Seoul to make deliveries and you guessed it, avoid traffic!
The Orange Crush: Koreans like to haul around large blocks of granite (about the size of large pickup trucks) they generaly lightly chain down about three on brightly painted heavy duty flat bed truck. These things haul Koodingi and do not stop at traffic lights. You are highly advised to watch out for these things as if your life depended on it. In short these folk drive like they still believed in reincarnation.
Religion: Still mostly Buddhist with a lot of Cofucionism and shamanism in the background. Evangelicle Christianity is second only Buddhism. Back to shamanism. Oct 1 marks the foundation of Ancient Chosun about 5000 yeats ago by Tangun the son of Hwang-Wang (the son of the king of heaven) and Woong-Nyo (a bear who became human by by hanging out in a dark cave and eating nothing but garlic and crown daisies for one hundred days). Cut to the chase, Koreans believe they have a direct and unique connection to heaven and in the back of their minds at least, bestiality does not have the same stigma that it does in western societies. By having carnal relations with a non Korean he or she would be having a type of bestial relationship.
If you think you can comete with 5,000 years of insanity you either have a well developed ego or you are yourself certifiably insane and or a masochist!
