I must be missing something here....
I don't understand the general fascination with Korean girls. I can absolutely see that some of them are super good looking. But I have found them to be terrible in bed. Mostly dead fish making weird noises. Absolute shit at blow jobs. I found the whole interactions with them to be a bit of a struggle and not really that enjoyable. It could just be my personality doesn't match up as well with Korean girls.

My sample size is small. I have only fucked 5 Korean girls. 1 in Bangkok, 1 in Bali, 3 in Manila.

Curious what others experiences with Korean girls is like and why it seems so many guys prefer them.

I've only fucked one Korean girl, but she was pretty good in bed. Very passionate. Probably the best sex I had of 2013. Maybe she was an exception.

In general, there are a lot of attractive Korean girls, like in Japan. Only problem is, like the Japanese, much of that is due more to makeup.

My only Korean girl was in Japan, definitely passionate temperament quite different from any Japanese I've been with. Very enthusiastic in bed.

I'm curious DD, how did you hook up with those Koreans in Manila? Were they tourists? Online game?

They are very conservative so you may have to play "me love you long time" game.

I live in Cebu and there are loads of girls this light or lighter. Yes, many are much darker and shorter but there are also many Chinese-Filos around. Also some Fil-Ams as they call them.

SEA isn't just all dark, short girls. There are also thousands of Koreans here learning English too. But I find they have the flattest butts of any women I've seen. And of course their English is painful.

But to add to this thread, one option is to come to country like the Philippines, where girls are easy and open, and hunt light skinned girls vs. going to conservative places and hunting.

2 of them are from when I lived in Manila many years ago. Both I picked up at the club "embassy" which is where Prive is located in the fort. 1 girl recently was at a house party. I have not come across any Korean girls online.

All 3 were living in Manila to learn english.

[LeightonBlackstock]

Only fucked one Korean. A 33 year-old. The only 8 I've fucked. But I dated two others:

One of them was hot but extremely prude. She had the personality of a postage stamp and terrible English.

Our conversations were usually something like:

Me: "What did you do this weekend?"
Her: ":O I don't understand"
Me: "Weekend *makes frantic action with thumb to indicate the past" You. Do. What?"
Her: "I drinking coffee"
Me: "Which coffee shop is your favourite?"
Her: ":O What? I don't understand"
Me: "Coffee shop. What favourite? Holly's Coffee, Café Bene, Starbucks?"
Her: "The Starbuck"

I got her back to my room but she put up a lot of resistance. In the end I canned her and moved on as she was going up to Seoul for the month. Plus talking to her made me angry haha. I think you need to wait longer with Korean girls typically. They're mad conservative. Though there are better forum members to consult on this (I lived in a tiny city and my game only got good when I moved to Taipei).

But anyway, based on my very limited bang experience but long spell of living there, I find Korean women to have ZERO personality compared to Thai's and Taiwanese girls. Korea is a crazy country, you MUST conform. Living there is something everyone should experience at least once.

Still, they are my favourite. Nothing does it for me more than a Korean. The quality is on ANOTHER PLANET compared to Thailand and Taiwan. I'd see a hottie every minute or so on the Taipei subway. In Seoul, every ten seconds probably. Plastic surgery and cosmetics make them hotter. Looks are really important in Korea.

I'll be honest though, I think I like them so much because they're seen as the 'hardest' to obtain. Perhaps this adds value?

There are PLENTY of Thai girls who look as good as Koreans, but if there were two equal-looking girls (one Thai and one Korean), I'd choose the Korean as I find her 'more valuable'. This is a completely ridiculous attitude to have, I know, but it's something I can't shake off for some reason. (Disclaimer: Obtaining a quality Thai girl is certainly no cake-walk).

Plus I like wide faces. Actually Mongolians are bloody hot, and look like 'super-Koreans'. I had a job offer there but rejected it as it's currently -19 degrees :/.

I'll try and do three months there in the summer some time.

Yeah, I have never understood the complaint (usually from guys who don't get laid or non-Korean Asian girls) that Korean girls are only hotter because of plastic surgery, cosmetics, and attire.

To which I think: "So? It's not like my dick cares. Perception is reality--plastic surgery, cosmetics, and attire are features, not bugs."

Funny, this reminds me just a bit of how I feel towards Japanese girls. The more difficulty I have with something, the more I want it.

Generally, though, I like the overall vibe of the Korean girls I've met over that of the Japanese. They just tend to seem more lively. Plus, besides the one Korean girl I had sex with, I noticed the others I'd go out on dates with were usually more fun, even with this one tourist who was only in Osaka for a day, it was fun to have a conversation using guess work, hand gestures and this little translator-app on her smartphone. Only thing I've noticed is that Koren girls I've met in Japanese clubs seemed like ice princesses.

Also, I've noticed that if you spot a hot, fly Mainland Chinese girl, you can often be pretty sure that her looks are "real", as they tend to put on much less makeup than Japanese girls. As such, you won't be in for as much of a surprise if you spot her the next day and she's not wearing her makeup, thinking "who the fuck is this and what have you done with what's-her-name!!????"

[trey]

I think just get better at getting the ones in northeast Asia / Japan.

Otherwise I'd say students in London for a year or two.

yeah, Koreans girls that I see around Cebu do have some nice big tits. Not just big, but nice shape too. I think that's where their asses went.

I don't know, I think some of the Korean girls here in Cebu are somewhat playful and outgoing. Not nearly as much fun as pinays, but still partying and having a good time. Maybe because they're the traveling types, living aboard, and that comes with the territory. But, it's nearly impossible to understand them if you're anywhere loud.

[LeightonBlackstock]

I'm curious. Has anyone else ever read Midnightrunner's post? IMO it's the best post on Korea on RVF.

Post #29, http://www.rooshvforum.network/thread-1682-p...#pid299170

It may seem VERY apocalyptic and VERY negative, but after living in Korea for seven months, I find it very hard to disagree with it. It's honestly a pretty accurate portrayal of a white man's life in Korea. (It's bloody long, but give it a read).

Korea seems rosy at first, and I know it seems like a case of 'Excuses, Excuses'. Maybe some guys have spent a weekend there and think I'm full of shit. But in my opinion, you really have to live there to understand the xenophobia and social hierarchy.

I remember 'Month 3', when I realised my place in Korean society. I finally had that 'I'm a blonde white guy who will slay Asians' shit beat out of me for good. Oh man it was depressing. From then on, I focused on getting the fuck out of Korea, Dash Global-style. (But in the long run, it helped me).

It was in Busan, we got rejected from a club for 'Having a white face' and we had a crap night at some sausage-fest. I turned to my friend and said "Mate, Korean girls don't like white guys". It was a Keanu Reeves 'What if' moment. (Note: My friend is a legit 9/10, and he didn't get a flag in his year there.)

Though I lived in Ulsan (a small city with one club). I do think there is hope in Itaewon (but maybe only with 6's and some 7's who are white-chasers), and there is potential with online game. But pulling by cold approach is fucking difficult if you're not Korean (or Korean-American) IMO. Hats off to any white guy who's pulled more than once this way, they're a better player than I will ever be. Pulling finals time for sure.

(Just to note. I don't see myself as one for making excuses. Taipei is often classed as hostile to white guys (if you want quality), but I maintain that being white is no excuse to not get laid in Taipei. You just have to elevate yourself above the sausage hoard. Being an English teacher is no excuse either.)

But yeah, Korea is tough, and many men have fallen, but God dammit, reading this thread is making me want to move to Seoul!!!

Why not come to Japan?

Also, just out of curiosity, how were your Korean skills back when you were in Ulsan? Did you notice White guys with a solid grasp of Korean getting better results?

[Beyond Borders]

Met a light-skinned Korean girl on NYE. Not top shelf but I'd say a solid 7 with a cute face, short but not ridiculously so, and surprisingly good curves in all the right places.

She was traveling with a Chinese girl. They were both really friendly and open to my approach. After I first went and talked with them and started dancing, we separated on the floor and they came and sought me out where I was standing afterward. A few Asian guys were following them around the dance floor but getting no love.

We were getting our dance on and I got the feeling that she'd have been pretty keen to try out some whiteboy but that it would take longer than the couple days she had left here (maybe). Didn't go anywhere beyond a bit of touching though. All three of us were grooving and suddenly she got quiet and just turned and bolted to the bathroom without saying a word. lol

Chinese girl looked kind of confused and after me and her danced and bullshit for a while she decided to go see what was up and 15-20 minutes later still no sign of them so I left the bar and went back on the hunt. I ran into them the next morning and they tried to come by and apologize but I kind of blew them off because I wasn't in the mood.

I suppose I should have at least asked what happened. Thinking maybe her vag started bleeding heavily at the wrong time...or maybe got some diarrhea from something she ate? LOL I guess it could have been a Jedi ditch move, but it really didn't seem like she was plotting to lose me at all, so I don't think it was.

That said, as a traveler rolling with a Chinese girl, I'm sure she was a lot more open-minded than women in-country; I didn't take her vibe as representative of what to expect there at all. It did make me want to pursue some more Korean tourists - her whole look and style wasn't really sexy but just so clean and well put-together. A looker for sure.

Another Korean girl made it a point to approach me in a coffee shop in Laos and we spent an hour or so talking. Hardcore Christian. Not good-looking at all though and had a butch-cut. But was cool to bullshit with her. I guess I just keep meeting uber-friendly Korean tourists, and a lot of them do come through here. No bangs of that particular flavor yet though.

Money. I'd be there in a heartbeat, but it's expensive to get set up as a broke English teacher there. It will happen. I'm an East-Asia man at heart. But maybe I'll have to wait for my rich, old relatives to die (I say this with a dark sense of humour, I love them to bits and wish them the best of health)

I'll be in Japan in a few years when I get the cash together. But for now it's Bangkok, followed by Vietnam.

My Korean skills were pretty much non-existent. I'm a bit of a Dash Global when it comes to learning language, but I learnt some important phrases. Probably more than him. (Note: say what you will about Dash, I understand why he was banned, but in terms of Korea, I don't think he was trolling at all. Gave a great, accurate insight IMO)

But No, absolutely not. Korean language skills could help, but you have to be fucking SPECIAL. I literally cannot name another guy in Ulsan who banged a Korean. (Ok, one or two banged a 4/5 here or there, but that doesn't count). You need impeccable style, impeccable looks or impeccable game. (Some guys DO have this, absolutely).

In Ulsan, I'd honestly say it's a high possibility that I was the only white guy to fuck a (decent) Korean in 2013. Maybe there were one or two others. But really, Ulsan is like what you describe as Osaka (But x10). Tough place. But i wanna go back to Seoul and give it a go some time :-P

Beyond Borders, interesting, so there is a prominent dance-floor culture in Cambodia? In Thailand it seems rare, in my experience. I miss dance-floor game :'(, it's fun and usually leads to easy make-outs/some one-night-stands. May have to take a trip to Siem Reap at some point.

Haha, I remember when I used to walk to my school in the mornings. There was one week where a five-some of Korean women kept ambushing me and saying "Do you want to know about the Hairy mother?"

I didn't know what the hell they were on about, so I asked my friend Edmund.

His respone: "Are you sure they didn't say HOLY mother?"

Did you ever go out to Seoul much and see white dudes or other foreigners killing it with Korean girls? Or did you not make it out there.

I would figure xenophobia and religious hangups would be relatively higher in small towns there, like in most places.

Call me a masochist, but all this makes me want to hop on a plane to Korea. I have to see this for myself.

In all seriousness, though, I would love to check out the Korean language and culture. So far I can only read/write Hangeul, but I can barely say anything.

The women are among my absolute favorite, and I've probably got the best recent memories from that one Korean fling from last(-last) year. I developed a fetish for them in China. Compared to the mainland Chinese girls with their-ultra tacky sense of fashion, the Korean exchange students looked like fucking model-goddesses. I only got to make out and grope around with this one Korean fine-ass girl back in Beijing. Truly an 8.5, beautiful face and body with a great ass; one of the hottest girls I've never fucked. Couldn't get her back to my place though. Luckily, I ended up getting a Kazakh flag that same night (bad teeth and ok face but stunning body), so I couldn't complain.

Damn, I'm getting nostalgic thinking about Beijing! I need to get my ass back to China

[Global_Cocksman]

Hey Sargon,

I'm thinking of maybe checking out Beijing in the summer for a three week stint. Would you say it's worth it, or is it generally too hot and humid, and smoggy?

I also recall most of your pulls were from club game. Were you ever able to get dates with relative ease from online?

I agree with you. Always gonna be tougher outside of Seoul. Only went there three times. I am absolutely NO authority on Seoul. I only talk in terms of Ulsan and Busan. (I went to Busan semi-regularly. It's no place to go. It's Seoul or bust in my opinion).

But in terms of Ulsan/Busan. Honestly man, didn't see one. My friend should have been the one to kill it, due to his impeccable looks, didn't happen though. (Seriously, he's comparable to the dude from Maroon 5).

As a reminder (perhaps off-topic): You gotta remember that opinions from English teachers are often embellished. So sometimes general opinions can skew a place. Thus, I implore everyone to only consider the viewpoints of those here at RVF. You can trust people here. Reports of 'My friend killed it in Korea' are a dime a dozen, and often exaggerated.

Let's have an example: My acquaintance 'Thomas', an American English teacher, who currently lives in Taipei.

Thomas told me of his fun times in Seoul. He told me how he pulled frequently, and he specified how he got immense attention on Halloween when he went out in a suit.

He said he had a great time in Seoul, and he said I picked the wrong city. He said I was doing it all wrong. He told me that I should go back to Seoul and try to mimic his experience. He also told me that Korean and Taiwanese girls were easy, and they jump at a white guy with blonde hair (like me).

So, ladies and gentleman, I introduce to you his girlfriend of one year :-P:



So a reminder to everyone. Only consider the opinions of the guys who are 'in the know' (You could do a lot worse than taking Dash's opinions on Korea as sacrosanct, IMO)

(Apologies Global_Cocksman if this comes across as condescending, it's absolutely not my intention. I'm just currently very drunk and am trying (and perhaps failing at) an attempt for humour :-P).

BJ can be VERY humid and VERY smoggy in the summer. In terms of the former think sweating buckets regardless how little you move, in terms of the former think not being able to see across the street on a bad night. Also, while I was there it poured like hell, which wasn't all that bad considering it was summer time. Since the streets are built in a slightly concave manner (bad city planning), this means the streets look like canals and the cars look like boats when this happens.

I still found it enjoyable in the summer, though. Just be prepaired.

Dabbled in online once and met this one girl I went out on a couple dates with. No bang, though. Almost all of the game I did while there was in clubs, first in Sanlitun then I shifted more over to Wudaokou, particularly in that area's two main clubs Paradise and Sensation. Wudaokou itself is jam packed with Korean exchange students and uni students in general. So if you're into Koreans that's the place to be. Just keep in mind the Korean girls in Beijing are a bit more clannish and elitist than the Koreans I've met in Germany and here in Japan.

Also, for taking girls out on dates, Nanluoguxiang and Houhai are really cool spots. Didn't try picking up that many girls there, though.

Yes, surprisingly, dancing is huge in Cambodia (at least according to my experiences in SR). Not just at tourist spots either - at the local discos. It's kind of cool after spending a lot of time in Thailand and Laos. The local youngsters even go out sober because they don't have the loot and spend all night dancing it up with friends, though plenty of drinking goes down too. Pretty common for local friends to invite you to go out dancing with them.

You don't see as much grinding and making out as you would back home - it's more social fun than seduction - and some girls will back you up if you try to get too close, even if they like you. But it does happen.

The teenagers and 20-somethings seem to emulate American culture in a lot of ways (the way they dress, hip hop music, etc), so I think that's where it comes from. On NYE I joined the family that owns the hotel I rent an apartment at for a big dinner and the teenager was blasting some gangster rap right in Grandma and grandpa's ear all through dinner, but the old-timers didn't speak any English so they had no idea what they were listening to anyways. Funny.

Anyways, the Chinese and Korean girl were in a spot frequented by tourists, but for New Years the place was flooded with locals.

All that said I can't promise you'll like it here. LOL It's still not Thailand. I'm probably an oddball in that I could be comfortable here for long periods.

Quote:

Never understood how you can live there long-term :-P.

I'm pretty ready to move on. But for the most part I've been tucked into my room and getting used to the not drinking and getting my shit together thing. I'm not so much here because I love it as I'm here because it's convenient. I feel like I have nowhere in the world to be at the moment and am trying to teach myself not to rush through life so much. And as I mentioned before, I can sort of get used to anywhere.

The way I see it is that in any given place, you end up falling into a basic routine and only do so much stuff on a regular basis. So I figure that as long as I have the basics and then the novelty of a foreign place to keep me entertained I stay pretty satisfied.

My feet are getting restless though and the dating options could definitely be better. I've got a few things going but nothing I'm very stoked on. And Siem Reap is a rather small city, which can be problematic....

That said, I don't think it would take very long to lock in a decent-looking girlfriend for a while if I knew I was staying, which I have never made a decision about this whole time. The place is most certainly not crawling with datable women but they are here. Just not the best place for a playboy.
