It’s amazing how a simple comment can bring you down in like 3 seconds. The other day a korean person commented my Don’t Go cover and she was calling me names saying that “foreigners shouldn’t sing korean songs” and basically she was mocking my accent. I deleted it because wtf that’s rude not just for me but for all the foreigners that like korean music and even for the foreigners working in the korean industry. Today I found out she commented again, she was making fun of me for deleting her comment, “It’s funny that you got embarrassed and deleted my comments. Foreigners will never be korean and your (people’s) pronunciation is funny and so disgusting. Only koreans can sing and like korean music it disgust me that so many foreigners want to be like us.” Note that she wrote in korean, i’m making a raw translation of her comment.

So yes, I deleted her comment again and blocked her. Why bother replying to someone so immature. But i started feeling a bit blue since then. It reminded me when Simon and Martina said that even if they have been living in korea for so long and even when they are basically 80% korean now (regarding customs and all that) people will always see them as outcasts. So yes, korean people really… makes me nervous and uneasy.

Of course not all of them are like that because I have korean friends, I’m really really close to some koreans and of course, I love korean men LOL so I know that they are really nice and polite and all, but some of them still live in a fucking fantasy world.

The other day I was watching Hello Counselor and there was a black guy telling how some koreans treat him like shit almost in a daily basis. How some people in the street just approach him just to touch his skin, and that some people won’t even let him take a sit on the subway… like what the actual fuck, are we really living in 2013? I get that people is “amazed” to see someone so different but this is so disrespectful. Some of them are even like this with fellow asians.

I had a korean boyfriend in the past and when I told him I wanted to go to China on vacation this happened:

Him: Don’t go to China, Korea is better.

Me: Why? I like China.

H: You can’t like China and Korea at the same time. People in there is ugly and weird. Korea is better.

Also, this other thing happened once. I was talking to another korean guy telling him that I was scared of people being racist for the simple fact of being part Japanese.

Guy: It’s okay. Koreans don’t hate Japs. Probably only really really old people, but nowadays nobody hates them.

Me: Ah, that’s a relief!

G: We only hate chinese people… or at least I do.

M: Why?

G: They are stupid, ugly and they smell bad. I don’t want them in my country they ruin everything. Whenever I see a chinese person in Korea I curse at them in a low voice and stare at them disgusted.

You are probably feeling as disgusted right now as I was when I read that, but that’s not all.

This is something I experienced myself.

Korean Girl: Ugh~ you look Japanese… I’m sorry I don’t want to talk to you. Japanese people disgust me.

Me: Why?

KG: BECAUSE DOKDO IS OURS!! IT BELONGS TO KOREA AND NOT JAPAN!! FUCK YOU!!

M: …..

For those who don’t know it, Dokdo are islets that Japan and Korea were fighting over for decades. 

So yes… this is something that not only makes me really angry but it also makes me scared. Why do people feel superior to others? This is not even about koreans anymore, but people in general. Why can’t we fucking respect others? we’re all the fucking same!

It doesn’t matter if you’re 100% korean or if you are only 50% korean or if you are not korean at all, BECAUSE WE’RE ALL THE SAME!

Why do some koreans get angry when they see white people (or people from other races) singing to kpop? enjoying korean culture? I was watching a video when EXO went to england, and in their performance sometimes the cameramen would focus on the fans, and I found a korean comment that had like 10 thumbs up. It literally said, “Why are they focusing on those white cunts? I want to see EXO singing.”

I am not white but it offended me. We can’t let this kind of things continue, really. It’s really annoying.

Sometimes I’m even scared that some of the singers we love can be like this behind close doors. People is pretty unpredictable.

I end this post saying that we should respect each other. Don’t discriminate! Whether you are korean or not, this behavior has to stop.
