Ask me about living in South Korea

[Ponce Master-General]

Are you that dick who uploaded the "get off facebook" video on Youtube? If so, I just want you to know you're an asshole. If not, do you know him? If so, tell him that the Ponce Master-General thinks he's an asshole. If not, I have no further questions.

Do I seriously have to dignify a question as dumb as that with an answer?

I mean, at least read the thread title before posting.

If you live as a foreigner there, how hard is it to register for F2P games there? Like Nexon, pmang etc. because I've heard it's pretty hard and you actually have to contact the companies to get your account D:

I could literally walk 20 metres from my room to find a Korean, so I have nothing to ask but this:

What are your views on Fan Death and how prevalent is belief in it in your area?

BALLS, this thread is a year old. Hot damn.

Anyway, I have a few questions.

Do South Koreans despise the Japanese as much as the Japanese despise them? Cuz I visited Japan to meet my father who was working there, and according to him, along with some stuff I've seen on Japanese forums, they really hate Koreans. Like with a freaking passion.

So tempting to answer questions >.>

It's very simple, all you have to do is give some information about yourself and done. But if you're not Korean, it probably is going to be hard to get that information.

Sorry for ambiguity, I haven't been there for a while and haven't played much of their F2P games >.> You can always play the sometimes worse Global Version.

I don't know about South Korea but from what I here North Korea still kidnaps Japanese citizens and interrogates them for no particular reason...<.<

Not that, I heard if you live there as a foreigner for longer than 6 months or something (or plan to) they give you something similar to a KSSN and since I'm planning to move to South Korea it kinda piqued my interest

Do Koreans think we are bloody thirsty and booby crazed in America because the Japanese seem to think so judging by the games with America as the targeted audience and the box art for us they make.

Fan death is a brilliant myth. Some of the smartest Koreans I've met believe in it. Even Korean scientists are unwilling to admit how much bullshit that is.

I proved them wrong by having a fan blown on me every night for 2 months and I did not die.

Some definitely hate Japanese people, but not everyone. It is not only because of Japan invading Korea and killing every man, woman and child they came across either but also because they have never formally apologized for all of their war crimes. On top of that, Japan still celebrates those people today.

There's also a problem over the island called Dokdo, which both Japan and South Korea claim ownership of. So yeah, not a whole lot of love between the two.

No. Though many of the old folks have very negative opinions of foreign teachers.
