Wow, they’re going to try to Westernize dating in the East! They really want to go there and force Koreans to change their culture, under the threat of calling them racist if they don’t oblige.
You know I've dated alot of black women and I have no idea where this stereotype of black women are easy to get in bed with came from. Maybe it's different for men of other races but I always found I had to put in more work to prove to them I was some what serious about getting to know them compared to other races of women. While it would take me minimum 3-4 dates before that option was even on the table it would take me 1 date or a couple hours of meeting with white woman 😆. Black women don't have the same luxury of being sexually "free spirits" it seems like other races
Media and those in control of said media. Makes them think everything in songs, films and staged live documentaries are applicable to real life, the kicker is that they don't apply the same mentality to wytes. And guess who pushes out certain narratives, while stifling wholesome ones in the US? A few rappers like Nikki, Cardi, the fifty-leven rappers with lil and baby to their names say when they do songs without s€x and violence, they are turned away so fast their heads spin, and they only get call backs when their lyrics ia degenerate and derelict lyrics. It's why Afrobeats is gaining ground. Hope it doesn't go down the same deviant drain.
Sorry to say but I have watched some vlogs of Black ladies twerking in the streets, too tight clothes and as an older Black American woman I thought to myself "they see that and think we're all like that." I've also watched a group of young Black ladies try to get in a club and they were rejected even though other non-Blacks were let in.

@@RougeLino Like i said in my reply, it's basically a back-handed compliment, or a double edged sword or whatever the name is. On the one hand you're getting praised for being above average, on the other hand your tribe is getting disrespected. So yea i'm actually agreeing with you now lol.
Women of color with education, sophistication, etiquette, distinction, higher purpose, accomplishment and morals sometimes get a "back seat" in the media as compared to the raunchy portrayal done by the media. It is disappointing that people base their opinions and perceptions based on stereotypes.
But that's due to their own culture. Another example for guys in America is going to college, getting a good job, is seen as lame by themselves. What's cool to them is being a rapper, athlete, gangsta. Even in Africa, there are entire villages of people trying to make it big in soccer, there are no entire villages of people trying be engineers. So in terms of women, the same concepts are brought over.
@@Cxs1a3 Sorry to hear that most women of color that I know have Master's and Doctorate Degrees. But in most cases their parents were educated and professionals. So they had role models.
But most men of all cultures don't find that attractive. What you describe is actually a major turn-off for a lot of men, and when it's not a turn-off, it certainly doesn't boost your value as much as it would for a man. Men stand to benefit a lot more, so it's a shame that statisitcally, we know a lot more women than men of color educate themselves. I get you're tryna disprove the stereotype, but the fact that you know women, not men who do it, only strengthens it.

It is very sad how our media portray black women, especially in music videos. But I am glad to see these beautiful women showing up and shutting down those stereotypes. It's funny how we have these fantasies of good romantic Korean men based on these kdramas only to shop up and find that's only a stereotype of them, most of them lol. It is actually sad, but glad to have people, channels like yours (and other Koreans) showing up truths. I already know blacks are already viewed differently and not in a positive light, but it is still sad to watch the confirmation. But glad to have this ammunition of truth as a protection as a blk woman when traveling or leaving in these places. Seems the only healthy ones to even consider are the ones whose family has more of an open mind/worldview and acceptance of other cultures, especially in regards to race.
It really shows the power of media representation. I think everyone should cancel any media that doesn't spread a good image of black people. Take a stronger stance against media. That means calling out your sibling or cousin who likes gangster style music. There needs to be more shows like the Cosby show.

Hope it all changes. Being into Korean and Japanese culture makes it easier to understand how these issues come up. The groups aren't super used to eachother and this these misunderstandings happen and the loud minorities will make it more personal than it actually is. You hit the nail on the head and so did the women in the video. Interacting with us and other groups is relatively new. New in the grand scheme of things. I understand that. Not many people will be patient enough to.
Despite the allure of Kdrama, black ladies need to remember that SK is just a tiny part of Asia. Instead of flocking to Korea, they should start checking out Taiwan, Vietnam, Japan, Phillipines, Indonesia, etc
@@patturnweaver Women care too much about labels and brand names. Men have been spreading themselves equally all across As'a, but women only want rich As'an countries with good brand name, which is pretty much only Korea and Japan. They won't even consider richer names like Hong Kong , Singapore, because they ain't got name.
The other girl looks like jayla! I wasn’t sure if it’s her but based in the comments, with everyone crushing on her it’s def jayla! I saw her speed dating show here on UA-cam
What I find interesting is that whenever there’s a video about the negative experiences black people have regarding race you get a lot of people who come on the comments and attempt to say why discrimination against black people should be justified especially in dating like in this case. And yet when I’ve been on videos regarding Asians for instance on the same subject no one on the video is making the case why Asians deserve it like we see here. It seems some people are very committed to being anti-black.
This is all accurate. I lived in Korea for two and a half years. I dated a lot there. More than I thought I’d be able to. The options are pretty vast. “Large” enough foreigner community of mostly English teachers and entrepreneurs. Tons of American GIs scattered across the multiple basis. And a large African community of young Textile exporters. Everything she said is accurate for not just Korean men when talking to Black Americans/Canadians, but also for the GIs and the Africans. They all assume that you’re DTF. So you have to weed through the bad ones to get to the good ones and there certainly are good ones there too.

The way these women said "Of course!" when he asked if they've dated there, I got the impression there's a stronger dating culture there than in the U.S. You're also saying you dated a lot. In the U.S., women will often say they haven't dated in months if not years. I haven't been on a date in many months.
@@MyAccountForCommenting It's not cuz it's stronger, it's more so the fact that as foreigners who have no roots there, they are more desperate to find someone who can help them integrate into the language and culture. So, their standards are lower than if they were locals of that country.
I've went on dates with at least 3 Korean/Asian males here in the United states, and I can definitely 100% say that what these women are saying in the interview is very true. Even here, I went on one date with them and they just expected me to bust It wide Open, I was like heck na... Cringe 😖
Not all asians are the same. If you had bad experience with Koreans, the other Asians might be more your type - Japanese, Vietnamese, Filipino, Taiwanese, etc
@@patturnweaver East Asians are quite different than South-East Asians, BUT, that only applies if they are in their original countries. In America, I would say it's mostly the same. A Japanese in Japan guy has more in common to Korea Koreans than born & bred Korean Americans, just in terms of mannerisms, cultural views, behavior.
@@adrianwillis66 I agree, but that doesn't mean you should look down on a whole race of people and try to abuse women any chance you get. Regrettable behavior
The reports I have heard from blacks in Korea were not encouraging. I am not interested in visiting ANY country that places such a premium on light-coloured skin. I can do without colorism. I am white, by the way.
then sir, you wouldn't want to visit the whole east, southeast, and south asia.. I'm indonesian and white people are looked very highly here (like many think white people are above them and higher than them and sh*t) and I'm always pissed because of that to be honest, I see every race on earth as human of the same level, cuz God created us equally (as human! the same species) and he sees us no differently (at least the religious side in me says that)
I hope black ladies expand their horizons beyond South Korea. Asia is a big place - don't forget Taiwan, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, Phillipines, Indonesia, etc. Lots of quality Asian men out there, not just Korea.
Women of all races seem to only consider Japan, Korea as realistic options. Men are much, much more evenly spread out across Asia. For women, culture and economics is just such a big deal to them. Men can like a woman without being drawn to the culture or the economic situation, but women just have much higher standards.
K-drama is part of the things that influences the travel. Perhaps, over asian countries should prove their visibility and beauty through the media as well. Could be music.
As an Asian guy who is in a relationship with a black woman, disappointed to hear about these women being fetishized for the most part. There is a separate video on this channel with a girl from Ga who lives w/her Korean husband and it's pretty fascinating to hear there experiences living in Korea. He went to HS in the US which I think made a big difference. I think 90% of the Korean guys in Korea only can relate to what they see on social media or on TV which isn't always positive unfortunately. Kudos to the ladies here for being thoughtful and not just bashing the guys even though they had every right to.
Most of the world has the same stereotypes, Europe, obviously same, South America, same, All of Asia, same, Australia/NZ, Same, Middle-East same. Unless you go back to Africa, but when anyone suggests that, it's seen as an insult
It's funny about the burn bright thing regarding dating because that is also at least from african (specifically my home country) dating. You like each other, you spend time, there's no time wasting or gaming, you are together and if it lasts great lol. I actually prefer that, i was confused initially trying to date in the US, where it seems more gamey, the guys definitely also wanted to move fast (guess fast moving is a universal male thing?) but definitely not fast regarding relationships, just physical.
I'm American and I do burn-bright dating. Most of my relationships started within no more than three weeks of meeting. I've never had a slow-burn relationship. The closest thing would be if we weren't really keeping in touch after a date or two but came back together later vs. consistently dating for months before locking in. I'm not a huge fan of constant texting, but I could deal with it if I knew it was a cultural thing.
This is a topic I’ve been waiting to see for a long time. It comes from the hyper sexualization of black women in the media. Currently trending, Black women in music are selling sex, so when any foreigner that has never met a black woman or talk to a black woman this is automatically what they will assume of us. It’s sad and degrading.
Foreign women in Korea are much more likely to encounter men who specifically seek out foreign women, which is completely different from just being open to meeting foreign women. Be aware of that selection bias, and understand that you might not be dealing with baseline behavior.
Which is why I think meeting Korean from friend of friend completely by accidents is the best way to go about it. Because they’re not in an environment where they expect to meet foreign. Women. Of course fétichiste can still decide to approach if they are also at those events. But it’s less likely that they will.
But that's just due to the women's culture of expecting guys to make the 1st move. They have the power to change that; approach guys that aren't showing interest, that way you're completely avoiding the type of men you're describing. But most women, view such a thing is beneath them, so the cycle continues.
@@Cxs1a3Not beneath them. There are literally thousands of male content creators who describe themselves as real men, the alphas, hyper hypermasculine, etc and their millions of followers always telling women never to approach men as it makes the men lose respect for those types of women. These redpill/blackpill males have the loudest voice and women do listen unfortunately, contrary to popular rhetorics.
It's is painfully sad that Black women especially from the US are seen as these Sex Kittens who will do anything. Hell even here we get that. It needs to change. Just like how all Korean men are not like the leads in the K dramas. Look at the extras and B characters.

Why is people hate to her the ugly true from who experienced it all u in the comments are trying to convince people this isn’t how it is or giving excuses instead of listening to understand they never said all or in general
The Ethiopian lady is very smart and direct. She accurately described how blacks-from-Africa are treated, not only in Korea, but also in many other countries. Specifically, when people realise you are not from the US, you can see their interest fade away before your eyes. True story.
Some people might say it's whataboutism, but the point is , it's always about "me, me , me", it's always "the world needs to change to help me", it's never"I have to change to help the world. "
But do you have the right to shame others when you are that yourself? Why do all these women only flock to the nice, rich part of Asia, did they give guys in 3rd world Asia an equal chance?
@Xtqzzzz I am not sure if we are saying anything to disagree on. The girls who reject just because you are from Vietnam is shallow in my opinion. Again it is ok if you're not a match with them in personality or culture wise or values. But if you two match in everything else and if she lost interest because of your origin, that is shallow in my opinion. I can not change my skin color, i can't change my origin. If she doesn't want to date me just because of my origin despite being attracted to everything else, then it is bye bye i don't want to be with a shallow person either.
The African girls should share their cultures...the world lack knowledge of Africa. Just like Korea Africa has its many beautiful cultures as a continent.
The model from Ethiopia is gorgeous. I'm glad she talked about texting. I'm also shit at dancing, running and basketball. 😅 It's silly to think a turn-off is a black woman who is from the Africa Continent. I have met more women directly from Africa Continent than from France or America. Love love love her accent. ❤
I honestly believe a lot of the stereotypes about black women that SK men prescribed to came from the importing of Hip Hop culture to SK. My Dad was stationed there in the late 1990s well into the early 2000s and a lot of the guys where into Hip Hop, its unfortunate that the way black women were portrayed or the way black female rappers portrayed themselves in those music videos and the lyrics heavily influenced SK men's perception of all black women. I saw the shift happen at first the boys would barely talk to foreign girls, and when they did they were curious but respectful, the colorism wasn't even that bad yet because even the Korean stars back then had natural golden skin tones, but the Hallyu Wave changed everything and not for the better IMHO.
@@freesia2252 Not solely but it has a lot to do with the issue. I lived through that transition there as a teen and young adult. Not just the men's perception of black women changed but the women's perception did as well. It's unfortunate but it is what it is.
@@freesia2252 For reference I'm an 80s baby, army brat who grew up in the 80s 90s early 2k, when we came to SK the music scene was from folk, Mando Pop to contemporary pop. True American pop music and hip hop came in the 90s and the SK government got so bent out of shape about the unregulated hypersexual western entertainment content being imported they created strict rules about content in the late 90s early 2k. Entertainment artist in K RNB and K Hip hop where copying and pasting black music and culture and the government weren't having it. There was a Group called SweeT that was a rip off of TLC, but they were mad talented just chaotic and poorly managed. It's wayyyyy more watered down now, but to see SK boys go from this GAP aesthetic to Hood down to the corn rows, baggy pants and fake gold chains was an FN spectacle to behold. To have classmates who were normal in middle school, then in highschool start approaching you sideways with yo yo ma I had to constantly check them. Also before the entertainment wave, there were two types of black people to Koreans, Dark meant you were From Africa, light skinned meant you were from the US or Europe, unless you were an entertainment superstar, then definitely were from the US. What's weird was like Micheal Jordan was hugely popular and obviously Dark skinned, but their brains seemed unable to make the connection that American black people came in all colors. For instance Because I am very fair black woman but often wore my hair cornrows cause the humidity was nuts there, they still didn't consider me as black. Colorism has existed in Asia free of African influence for millennia. Their colorism is based in classism. Poor people where tan laborers who worked in the sun, pale people where rich nobles who never left the shade.
I don't think being Black makes those ladies treated any easier than the locals. Being a foreigner in a foreign country makes you an easy target. Men want the same from Korean women but they know there may be more social consequences when they date Korean women, and it dictates their behaviors.
Oooohhhh… Social consequences that we foreigners aren’t easily gonna know about due to being outsiders, plus most of us being there only for a few years, and then on top of all that: most of us won’t have a comparable culture-of-origin reference point to use in comparison when examining social consequences of doing as these guys do…. Gotcha. Thank you for your cogent point. ✔️
Yeah, no. I've gone on dates with at least three Korean males here in the United States and they are the exact same. They literally just expected me to bust It wide open, heck na 🤢
@@IndependentPrettyGirlis It's unfortunate that those relationships didn't turn out fulfilling for you. Without knowing how you met them or their age and background, it’s hard to grasp the correlation between your dating experiences with Korean men in the States and the dating encounters of foreign women in Korea. I've observed that, overall, men in the state tend to be more direct when it comes to dating and intimacy, regardless of their racial backgrounds. I just wanted to say that race isn't the reason driving how those men treat foreign women in Korea. If someone is an opportunistic user, their behavior won't change based on your race but it might change due to social consequences.
@@curiossoul2961 it is definitely because of race. This is not a thing where only some Koreans do it, it's literally the majority of Korean males are discriminatory in this way. Also, I don't understand what you mean by "it's hard to compare my experience in the states with the experience there in korea." Did you watch the video? I literally just said that my experience in the states dating Korean males is the literal exact same experience as what all of those women the video who were interviewed described. So I don't even know what you're talking about or trying to justify.
Ethiopians think the same thing about Arabs and their big nose and whites with their thin lips, west Africans and their wide noses etc but they have enough common sense and are polite enough to not shame them for it. The list can go on when you start judging people based on physical attributes that are commonly found in their race. None of this is relevant or a reflection of her character.
The Ethiopian lady had a good point, the Koreans kinda expect the black women to be from US, and oddly France! 😂 However, I think maybe due to the amount of Americans in KR, that they actually think every black person (man/woman) would be American. However it appears the experiences are very much the same. It’s interesting 🤔. I’m Black British of Caribbean descent, and it seems that in places like KR or even Japan at that, that society is views different (unless they’re well travelled) towards those from even South East Asia, as well as black people. But to be fair to them, if you go even some places in say idk, Denmark for example, in the countryside people may not be used to seeing black people. I experienced that once, found it a little uncomfortable, but found out it was cuz they were not used to seeing a black person😂. Basically the common denominator here is: do NOT go to KR just to look for man!😂😂😂
I'm a black American female. I went to Zürich solo and got blatantly stared at by the men there. The only other black people I saw were inside the central train station (probably just passing through). I'm pretty sure they weren't black Americans though (probably Africans). So, I was an extreme anomaly. I was like "hi 😊 you're welcome to stare."
One of the biggest surprise for me over the last decade is how many more black women I see in Seoul. It is an amazing trend, I never imagined would happen in my lifetime.
The millinial black women that I know always had passports since early 2009 ish. To do something our parents never did and meet people. I've personally have been inspired since grade school as my teachers would show their travels to us in class. I'm glad to see that that early trend picked up over the years.
I think the point is (and I noticed this in 2017 when I went to Seoul). There are a lot of black people (including women over there). It was a little surprising to me coming from Japan (I lived there at the time). You saw black people, but not in the same numbers as South Korea in my experience.

It only becomes an issue if Koren women either can't get other races, or don't want to go for other races. And we know neither is true. When one of those conditions is true, then it becomes an issue for them e.g black women in western countries who can't really get other races, or white women in lower status asian countries who aren't attracted to the men there, but all the wite men want to go for the Asian women instead

I think in Korea, men who like to sleep around will look for women to sleep with, not just black women. I’m originally from Russia/Ukraine, and the men there often think that almost every Russian/Ukrainian woman is someone they can easily sleep with. I don’t know who started this notion, but I don’t like it. I’m sure this attitude isn’t limited to ‘black girls’ or ‘Russian/Ukrainian girls,’ but extends to women from many other countries that Korean men find particularly beautiful.
That's why the entertainment industry in general must begin to move away from the lower vibrational habitual mainstream music patterns and performing arts concepts that target and thereby demean People of Color in general, but particularly, Africans, African Americans (Blacks) and others that, for the most part, slant and even lie altogether about historical and cultural facts and even the truth in an effort to sensationalize/fantasize cultural reality for profit and influence. It is important to do this not only because it's the right thing to do, but also, it is important to not offend people carelessly in an increasingly global marketplace. Intermingling of diverse populations worldwide has become normal and even embraced. So having respect alongside an understanding for our global neighbors is paramount. Therefore, moving away from stereotypes that are founded on racist, bigoted and even egotistical ideas is not only ignorant but dangerously counterproductive in a global marketplace. Moreover, and for example, America's entertainment industry is one of the largest and most powerful in the world, and so, what it promotes typically does have a large influence on mass perceptions, unless, a people/person have a good upbringing, are well educated and well traveled. Therefore, people in general, do have a tendency to believe whatever is put 'out there' of which is mostly false. However, because of such mass perceptual fabrications that have been, and still are, promoted to the public at large it is very important to counter such degrading/negative advertising, marketing and stereotypical representations by being a positive example. Importantantly, it's intelligent to have commentary videos like this in order to disseminate the truth/facts which dissolves lies by enlightening people to the facts which distributes to the public a reasonably balanced social-cultural perspective. Thank you, for sharing this kind of content.
S.P.M Here; Dear reader, Merry Christmas. Valuing yourself and your culture showcases true intelligence and class. Melanin is very beautiful and beneficial. Black is eternally golden ❤
I applaud these women for living in Korea and carrying on about their lives. I know I could never live in a country that homogeneous; I'd feel like I'd have no life not being able to connect to more people like myself.
Most African American culture is not vulgar or overtly sexual. Missy Elliot, Alicia Keys, Kehlani, H.E.R, Kendrick Lamar? And that's just hip hop. If people think Cardi B represents an entire race, those people are just being stupid and lazy
Unfortunately many of these stereotypes come from these hip hop videos that show our women scantily dressed while twerking. It’s ok to be sexy without so much vulgarity. We need to check ourselves. Instead of criticizing rest of the world we should be more critical of the producers of these videos. Our young girls definitely shouldn’t be exposed to it
as a black woman, it's hard dating in any non-black country. As a black woman in France, it's just hell. Non-black people just hate blackness, especially on women.
Well, it's more a matter of competition with other races, not necessarily location. And it's no fault of your own, it's just other races are more blessed to have visuals that are not to say more beautiful, but more widely accepted by different cultures.

Representation matters. I can totally see how they would think we are all like the people in movies. I thank the expats that move to these kind of places. They show them we are as real as they are. Much like people learn about people in America.
Media representation and close-mindedness of Korean people due to lack of diversity in the country lead to these unshakeable beliefs in stereotypes. Black female rappers are probably one of the most well known forms of media of us and it doesn’t necessarily suck, what sucks is that it’s the only real form that gets traction. What also sucks is that simple-minded individuals exist that take everything at surface level. Most Asian dominated countries (China, Korea, and more) just can’t find it within themselves to understand that what they see online may not represent a whole demographic of people (shocking, right?). It seems like a very easy to understand concept but they just can’t grasp it.
In addition, South Korea had the highest number of removal requests to Google by the Korean government in the world. I don't know the details of why, but I can tell you that it is a very controlling country.
@@freesia2252 well we are talking about black females, so the only representatives of black females can be black females. Black female rappers are at the forefront of representation in our community, no need to be in denial about it. Black doctors, models, actors, pop singers, teachers, and more are rarely placed on platforms that can reach that wide of a range of people. It’s unfortunate.
Koreans are not definitively more close-minded than western countries , on the topic of dating & marriage. There is actually a lot more diversity than you're giving it credit for, plus in the countries that you think are better, let's not act like bIac women have the same opportunites as wite women, not even close. Let's not act like a Vietnamese dude will be treated equally to a wite dude, not even close.

Wow, they’re going to try to Westernize dating in the East! They really want to go there and force Koreans to change their culture, under the threat of calling them racist if they don’t oblige.
You know I've dated alot of black women and I have no idea where this stereotype of black women are easy to get in bed with came from. Maybe it's different for men of other races but I always found I had to put in more work to prove to them I was some what serious about getting to know them compared to other races of women. While it would take me minimum 3-4 dates before that option was even on the table it would take me 1 date or a couple hours of meeting with white woman 😆.
Black women don't have the same luxury of being sexually "free spirits" it seems like other races
Media and those in control of said media. Makes them think everything in songs, films and staged live documentaries are applicable to real life, the kicker is that they don't apply the same mentality to wytes. And guess who pushes out certain narratives, while stifling wholesome ones in the US? A few rappers like Nikki, Cardi, the fifty-leven rappers with lil and baby to their names say when they do songs without s€x and violence, they are turned away so fast their heads spin, and they only get call backs when their lyrics ia degenerate and derelict lyrics. It's why Afrobeats is gaining ground. Hope it doesn't go down the same deviant drain.
I've seen that this stereotype is applied to white American women as well. So, at least some part of it is for simply being American.
Sorry to say but I have watched some vlogs of Black ladies twerking in the streets, too tight clothes and as an older Black American woman I thought to myself "they see that and think we're all like that." I've also watched a group of young Black ladies try to get in a club and they were rejected even though other non-Blacks were let in.

Haha yeah. The Amharic accent is pretty strong
I fell in love.

Women of color with education, sophistication, etiquette, distinction, higher purpose, accomplishment and morals sometimes get a "back seat" in the media as compared to the raunchy portrayal done by the media. It is disappointing that people base their opinions and perceptions based on stereotypes.
But that's due to their own culture. Another example for guys in America is going to college, getting a good job, is seen as lame by themselves. What's cool to them is being a rapper, athlete, gangsta. Even in Africa, there are entire villages of people trying to make it big in soccer, there are no entire villages of people trying be engineers. So in terms of women, the same concepts are brought over.
@@Cxs1a3 Sorry to hear that most women of color that I know have Master's and Doctorate Degrees. But in most cases their parents were educated and professionals. So they had role models.
But most men of all cultures don't find that attractive. What you describe is actually a major turn-off for a lot of men, and when it's not a turn-off, it certainly doesn't boost your value as much as it would for a man. Men stand to benefit a lot more, so it's a shame that statisitcally, we know a lot more women than men of color educate themselves. I get you're tryna disprove the stereotype, but the fact that you know women, not men who do it, only strengthens it.

It's funny how we have these fantasies of good romantic Korean men based on these kdramas only to shop up and find that's only a stereotype of them, most of them lol. It is actually sad, but glad to have people, channels like yours (and other Koreans) showing up truths. I already know blacks are already viewed differently and not in a positive light, but it is still sad to watch the confirmation. But glad to have this ammunition of truth as a protection as a blk woman when traveling or leaving in these places. Seems the only healthy ones to even consider are the ones whose family has more of an open mind/worldview and acceptance of other cultures, especially in regards to race.
It really shows the power of media representation. I think everyone should cancel any media that doesn't spread a good image of black people. Take a stronger stance against media. That means calling out your sibling or cousin who likes gangster style music. There needs to be more shows like the Cosby show.

What I find interesting is that whenever there’s a video about the negative experiences black people have regarding race you get a lot of people who come on the comments and attempt to say why discrimination against black people should be justified especially in dating like in this case.
And yet when I’ve been on videos regarding Asians for instance on the same subject no one on the video is making the case why Asians deserve it like we see here.
It seems some people are very committed to being anti-black.

This is all accurate. I lived in Korea for two and a half years. I dated a lot there. More than I thought I’d be able to. The options are pretty vast. “Large” enough foreigner community of mostly English teachers and entrepreneurs. Tons of American GIs scattered across the multiple basis. And a large African community of young Textile exporters. Everything she said is accurate for not just Korean men when talking to Black Americans/Canadians, but also for the GIs and the Africans. They all assume that you’re DTF. So you have to weed through the bad ones to get to the good ones and there certainly are good ones there too.
i think its the stereotype against BW i live in asia nd my asian friends think all black woman are like simply because of how americans have done to the community
So far the girls are only talking about Asian men. You are the only one that said it is all the men.
The way these women said "Of course!" when he asked if they've dated there, I got the impression there's a stronger dating culture there than in the U.S. You're also saying you dated a lot. In the U.S., women will often say they haven't dated in months if not years. I haven't been on a date in many months.
@@MyAccountForCommenting It's not cuz it's stronger, it's more so the fact that as foreigners who have no roots there, they are more desperate to find someone who can help them integrate into the language and culture. So, their standards are lower than if they were locals of that country.

Not all asians are the same. If you had bad experience with Koreans, the other Asians might be more your type -
Japanese, Vietnamese, Filipino, Taiwanese, etc
@@patturnweaver East Asians are quite different than South-East Asians, BUT, that only applies if they are in their original countries. In America, I would say it's mostly the same. A Japanese in Japan guy has more in common to Korea Koreans than born & bred Korean Americans, just in terms of mannerisms, cultural views, behavior.

@@adrianwillis66 I agree, but that doesn't mean you should look down on a whole race of people and try to abuse women any chance you get. Regrettable behavior
The reports I have heard from blacks in Korea were not encouraging. I am not interested in visiting ANY country that places such a premium on light-coloured skin. I can do without colorism. I am white, by the way.
then sir, you wouldn't want to visit the whole east, southeast, and south asia.. I'm indonesian and white people are looked very highly here (like many think white people are above them and higher than them and sh*t) and I'm always pissed because of that to be honest, I see every race on earth as human of the same level, cuz God created us equally (as human! the same species) and he sees us no differently (at least the religious side in me says that)
That is true, sadly, in all Asian nations. Colourism is very much still a thing.
Get yourself some human history! Colorism has been thousands of years in most cultures including mist “white” , asian and black cultures!
@@Boymanjusri I'm curious as to what you're calling mist white. Also, if they were mist white how would their be colourism?
Do not worry. cause your country has more racism than any country in Asia :)
I hope black ladies expand their horizons beyond South Korea. Asia is a big place - don't forget Taiwan, Japan, Vietnam, Thailand, Phillipines, Indonesia, etc. Lots of quality Asian men out there, not just Korea.
Women of all races seem to only consider Japan, Korea as realistic options. Men are much, much more evenly spread out across Asia. For women, culture and economics is just such a big deal to them. Men can like a woman without being drawn to the culture or the economic situation, but women just have much higher standards.
Big lie. What we know is that Asia values white skin, period.

K-drama is part of the things that influences the travel. Perhaps, over asian countries should prove their visibility and beauty through the media as well. Could be music.

As an Asian guy who is in a relationship with a black woman, disappointed to hear about these women being fetishized for the most part. There is a separate video on this channel with a girl from Ga who lives w/her Korean husband and it's pretty fascinating to hear there experiences living in Korea. He went to HS in the US which I think made a big difference. I think 90% of the Korean guys in Korea only can relate to what they see on social media or on TV which isn't always positive unfortunately. Kudos to the ladies here for being thoughtful and not just bashing the guys even though they had every right to.
Black women should travel, escape the stereotypes of America that hold us back and find love wherever
I have a travel group of 4 and we take 1-2 trips a year to other countries. The experiences we’ve had have been amazing.

It's funny about the burn bright thing regarding dating because that is also at least from african (specifically my home country) dating. You like each other, you spend time, there's no time wasting or gaming, you are together and if it lasts great lol. I actually prefer that, i was confused initially trying to date in the US, where it seems more gamey, the guys definitely also wanted to move fast (guess fast moving is a universal male thing?) but definitely not fast regarding relationships, just physical.
I'm American and I do burn-bright dating. Most of my relationships started within no more than three weeks of meeting. I've never had a slow-burn relationship. The closest thing would be if we weren't really keeping in touch after a date or two but came back together later vs. consistently dating for months before locking in. I'm not a huge fan of constant texting, but I could deal with it if I knew it was a cultural thing.
Exactly I’d prefer it that way because guys in the US will completely waste your time
This is a topic I’ve been waiting to see for a long time. It comes from the hyper sexualization of black women in the media. Currently trending, Black women in music are selling sex, so when any foreigner that has never met a black woman or talk to a black woman this is automatically what they will assume of us. It’s sad and degrading.
Thank you!
Foreign women in Korea are much more likely to encounter men who specifically seek out foreign women, which is completely different from just being open to meeting foreign women. Be aware of that selection bias, and understand that you might not be dealing with baseline behavior.
Which is why I think meeting Korean from friend of friend completely by accidents is the best way to go about it. Because they’re not in an environment where they expect to meet foreign. Women. Of course fétichiste can still decide to approach if they are also at those events. But it’s less likely that they will.
But that's just due to the women's culture of expecting guys to make the 1st move. They have the power to change that; approach guys that aren't showing interest, that way you're completely avoiding the type of men you're describing. But most women, view such a thing is beneath them, so the cycle continues.
Good point
@@Cxs1a3Not beneath them. There are literally thousands of male content creators who describe themselves as real men, the alphas, hyper hypermasculine, etc and their millions of followers always telling women never to approach men as it makes the men lose respect for those types of women.

Both are-
The Ethiopian lady is very smart and direct. She accurately described how blacks-from-Africa are treated, not only in Korea, but also in many other countries. Specifically, when people realise you are not from the US, you can see their interest fade away before your eyes. True story.
But what about the interest fading from these women's eye when they find out a guy isn't Korean, but Vietnamese?
Some people might say it's whataboutism, but the point is , it's always about "me, me , me", it's always "the world needs to change to help me", it's never"I have to change to help the world. "
@Xtqzzzz the same, it is shallow to me if people reject you just based on your country of origin, be it men or women.
But do you have the right to shame others when you are that yourself? Why do all these women only flock to the nice, rich part of Asia, did they give guys in 3rd world Asia an equal chance?
@Xtqzzzz I am not sure if we are saying anything to disagree on. The girls who reject just because you are from Vietnam is shallow in my opinion. Again it is ok if you're not a match with them in personality or culture wise or values. But if you two match in everything else and if she lost interest because of your origin, that is shallow in my opinion. I can not change my skin color, i can't change my origin. If she doesn't want to date me just because of my origin despite being attracted to everything else, then it is bye bye i don't want to be with a shallow person either.
I really like the Boston girl's vibe!!
I respect these girls a lot for having respect for themselves

The first story must have gone on for a while because so many cuts.
When you guys burst into fluent Korean, that was 🔥!!!
Also, my sister lived in Seoul for 5 years and this is pretty accurate to what she told me.
I honestly believe a lot of the stereotypes about black women that SK men prescribed to came from the importing of Hip Hop culture to SK. My Dad was stationed there in the late 1990s well into the early 2000s and a lot of the guys where into Hip Hop, its unfortunate that the way black women were portrayed or the way black female rappers portrayed themselves in those music videos and the lyrics heavily influenced SK men's perception of all black women. I saw the shift happen at first the boys would barely talk to foreign girls, and when they did they were curious but respectful, the colorism wasn't even that bad yet because even the Korean stars back then had natural golden skin tones, but the Hallyu Wave changed everything and not for the better IMHO.
So you’re just gonna blame it on hip-hop hilarious😂
@@freesia2252 Not solely but it has a lot to do with the issue. I lived through that transition there as a teen and young adult. Not just the men's perception of black women changed but the women's perception did as well. It's unfortunate but it is what it is.
@@freesia2252 For reference I'm an 80s baby, army brat who grew up in the 80s 90s early 2k, when we came to SK the music scene was from folk, Mando Pop to contemporary pop. True American pop music and hip hop came in the 90s and the SK government got so bent out of shape about the unregulated hypersexual western entertainment content being imported they created strict rules about content in the late 90s early 2k. Entertainment artist in K RNB and K Hip hop where copying and pasting black music and culture and the government weren't having it. There was a Group called SweeT that was a rip off of TLC, but they were mad talented just chaotic and poorly managed. It's wayyyyy more watered down now, but to see SK boys go from this GAP aesthetic to Hood down to the corn rows, baggy pants and fake gold chains was an FN spectacle to behold. To have classmates who were normal in middle school, then in highschool start approaching you sideways with yo yo ma I had to constantly check them. Also before the entertainment wave, there were two types of black people to Koreans, Dark meant you were From Africa, light skinned meant you were from the US or Europe, unless you were an entertainment superstar, then definitely were from the US. What's weird was like Micheal Jordan was hugely popular and obviously Dark skinned, but their brains seemed unable to make the connection that American black people came in all colors. For instance Because I am very fair black woman but often wore my hair cornrows cause the humidity was nuts there, they still didn't consider me as black. Colorism has existed in Asia free of African influence for millennia. Their colorism is based in classism. Poor people where tan laborers who worked in the sun, pale people where rich nobles who never left the shade.
I don't think being Black makes those ladies treated any easier than the locals. Being a foreigner in a foreign country makes you an easy target. Men want the same from Korean women but they know there may be more social consequences when they date Korean women, and it dictates their behaviors.
Oooohhhh… Social consequences that we foreigners aren’t easily gonna know about due to being outsiders, plus most of us being there only for a few years, and then on top of all that: most of us won’t have a comparable culture-of-origin reference point to use in comparison when examining social consequences of doing as these guys do…. Gotcha. Thank you for your cogent point. ✔️

@@IndependentPrettyGirlis It's unfortunate that those relationships didn't turn out fulfilling for you. Without knowing how you met them or their age and background, it’s hard to grasp the correlation between your dating experiences with Korean men in the States and the dating encounters of foreign women in Korea. I've observed that, overall, men in the state tend to be more direct when it comes to dating and intimacy, regardless of their racial backgrounds. I just wanted to say that race isn't the reason driving how those men treat foreign women in Korea. If someone is an opportunistic user, their behavior won't change based on your race but it might change due to social consequences.
Being black definitely has a lot with it stop the cap
@@curiossoul2961 it is definitely because of race. This is not a thing where only some Koreans do it, it's literally the majority of Korean males are discriminatory in this way. Also, I don't understand what you mean by "it's hard to compare my experience in the states with the experience there in korea." Did you watch the video?

The Ethiopian lady had a good point, the Koreans kinda expect the black women to be from US, and oddly France! 😂
However, I think maybe due to the amount of Americans in KR, that they actually think every black person (man/woman) would be American. However it appears the experiences are very much the same.
It’s interesting 🤔.
I’m Black British of Caribbean descent, and it seems that in places like KR or even Japan at that, that society is views different (unless they’re well travelled) towards those from even South East Asia, as well as black people.
But to be fair to them, if you go even some places in say idk, Denmark for example, in the countryside people may not be used to seeing black people. I experienced that once, found it a little uncomfortable, but found out it was cuz they were not used to seeing a black person😂.

@@sara.cbc92 Why is South Africa included here??
@@sara.cbc92 what was the purpose of including south africa when it had nothing to do with the conversation, let alone the video?
I'm a black American female. I went to Zürich solo and got blatantly stared at by the men there. The only other black people I saw were inside the central train station (probably just passing through). I'm pretty sure they weren't black Americans though (probably Africans). So, I was an extreme anomaly. I was like "hi 😊 you're welcome to stare."
The dating struggles for us is challenging world wide. I can't even imagine in Korea.
One of the biggest surprise for me over the last decade is how many more black women
I see in Seoul. It is an amazing trend, I never imagined would happen in my lifetime.
The millinial black women that I know always had passports since early 2009 ish. To do something our parents never did and meet people. I've personally have been inspired since grade school as my teachers would show their travels to us in class. I'm glad to see that that early trend picked up over the years.
I think the point is (and I noticed this in 2017 when I went to Seoul). There are a lot of black people (including women over there). It was a little surprising to me coming from Japan (I lived there at the time). You saw black people, but not in the same numbers as South Korea in my experience.

In Asia, she's not considered attractive in terms of cultural beauty standards. Getting guys is a much lower bar, it doesn't mean cuz you can get guys, the society highly regards you.
@@chriIIe minus her skin and nose id say she fits standards tho
@@nalbinalbii888 Skin color is the biggest knock, nose is acceptable. But skin color in Asia, unlike other cultures, is so important that it's make or break.
@user-dk9xr4ry3w Doesn't matter, Korea is a collectivist culture, not individualist culture. Individual beliefs do not change the collective thinking of society. As I said earlier, she can get guys, like you, but getting guys doesn't mean she is society's ideal.
Here is a video idea: Ask Korean women how they feel about all these (foreign)women flooding into Korea.
I think I can predict the general reaction.
It only becomes an issue if Koren women either can't get other races, or don't want to go for other races. And we know neither is true. When one of those conditions is true, then it becomes an issue for them e.g black women in western countries who can't really get other races, or white women in lower status asian countries who aren't attracted to the men there, but all the wite men want to go for the Asian women instead
@@Cxs1a3 “black women in WESTERN countries who can’t really get other races”…in WESTERN? Please don’t type things you don’t know about. Black women in western countries do quite well when it comes to dating other races. Especially if they’re open to it. It’s not like in Asia.
@@abena8339 What I said only applies to darc-scine blac women, lite-skin girls have it very easy. Don't confuse being able to get guys who wanna phuc with getting them to settle down for life. BIac women like all women can easily get the 1st, the 2nd is much harder. Name me a non-lite skin bIac woman that bagged an A-list wite celebrity.
As an older woman , I. can say, I've been happily married to my Austrian husband for 37 years. Our relationship is based on mutual respect and accepting our differences.
@@Cxs1a31.) Serena Williams 2.) Jodie turner smith 3.) eve 4.) melody Hobson. Their husbands are a-list millionaire/billionaire. I’m gonna need you to stop talking because what you commented is very colorist mixed with anti blackness. There are plenty DS women with non BM.
I think in Korea, men who like to sleep around will look for women to sleep with, not just black women. I’m originally from Russia/Ukraine, and the men there often think that almost every Russian/Ukrainian woman is someone they can easily sleep with. I don’t know who started this notion, but I don’t like it. I’m sure this attitude isn’t limited to ‘black girls’ or ‘Russian/Ukrainian girls,’ but extends to women from many other countries that Korean men find particularly beautiful.
Yes , I agree. It’s sounds like they want to explore and have fun then leave. I don’t think it’s anything personal or race related to be exact
I saw this same woman from Boston in another Korea dating video! She is so beautiful
The girl from Boston, man i love her voice❤
That's why the entertainment industry in general must begin to move away from the lower vibrational habitual mainstream music patterns and performing arts concepts that target and thereby demean People of Color in general, but particularly, Africans, African Americans (Blacks) and others that, for the most part, slant and even lie altogether about historical and cultural facts and even the truth in an effort to sensationalize/fantasize cultural reality for profit and influence.
It is important to do this not only because it's the right thing to do, but also, it is important to not offend people carelessly in an increasingly global marketplace. Intermingling of diverse populations worldwide has become normal and even embraced. So having respect alongside an understanding for our global neighbors is paramount. Therefore, moving away from stereotypes that are founded on racist, bigoted and even egotistical ideas is not only ignorant but dangerously counterproductive in a global marketplace.
Moreover, and for example, America's entertainment industry is one of the largest and most powerful in the world, and so, what it promotes typically does have a large influence on mass perceptions, unless, a people/person have a good upbringing, are well educated and well traveled.
Therefore, people in general, do have a tendency to believe whatever is put 'out there' of which is mostly false. However, because of such mass perceptual fabrications that have been, and still are, promoted to the public at large it is very important to counter such degrading/negative advertising, marketing and stereotypical representations by being a positive example.
Importantantly, it's intelligent to have commentary videos like this in order to disseminate the truth/facts which dissolves lies by enlightening people to the facts which distributes to the public a reasonably balanced social-cultural perspective.
Thank you, for sharing this kind of content.
I think a Korean american man would understand how to respect you more. Just saying.❤️🙋♂️
Great video quality, and guest selection - props!
Inspiring for my channel
S.P.M Here;
Dear reader,
Merry Christmas.
Valuing yourself and your culture showcases true intelligence and class.
Melanin is very beautiful and beneficial.
Black is eternally golden
❤
The girl from Boston I saw her on the channel , where these guys put a table and chair and ask if they single take a seat , I saw this girl there
The first girl so fricken prettyyy
OMG the white jacket girl 😍😍
The first girl is gorgeous
I applaud these women for living in Korea and carrying on about their lives. I know I could never live in a country that homogeneous; I'd feel like I'd have no life not being able to connect to more people like myself.
Refer to WAP by Cardi B and Gangster rap. African-American pop culture is what drives the stereotypes believed in other countries...
Bingo all by design
Exactly!!!
YES
Most African American culture is not vulgar or overtly sexual. Missy Elliot, Alicia Keys, Kehlani, H.E.R, Kendrick Lamar? And that's just hip hop. If people think Cardi B represents an entire race, those people are just being stupid and lazy
The funny thing is Cardi B isn’t even black 😂 so don’t even
Unfortunately many of these stereotypes come from these hip hop videos that show our women scantily dressed while twerking. It’s ok to be sexy without so much vulgarity. We need to check ourselves. Instead of criticizing rest of the world we should be more critical of the producers of these videos. Our young girls definitely shouldn’t be exposed to it
Say it louder! People need to wake up. In Latino music men also sexualize women but we are calling it out. At least in our countries.
The first lady's story on stereotype is true and it comes form American media.
The way black women are portrayed is so bad.
I would love to see a video about the reasons foreigners chose to move to Korea.
The first girl. How beautiful she is ❤
I keep seeing the first girl everywhere!!!!! The one from Boston.
same
looks freezing, they cant do the interviews indoor?
as a black woman, it's hard dating in any non-black country. As a black woman in France, it's just hell. Non-black people just hate blackness, especially on women.
I thought French men were pretty fond of black women
France is racist why would you move there?
@@britneyt9253why would French men date black women when they have their own women to date and other more beautiful white women.
Well, it's more a matter of competition with other races, not necessarily location. And it's no fault of your own, it's just other races are more blessed to have visuals that are not to say more beautiful, but more widely accepted by different cultures.
@@LostboyyoI'm asian and the black lady from Boston is gorgeous lol.. I would date her over a white or Asian woman.. not only she is attractive but I like her personality.. from my experience.. dealing or getting along w white or even asian woman may not be easy or harmonious in relationship 😂
These women are beautiful
Second Lady so confident and classy ❤❤❤❤
The first lady is very cute
Representation matters. I can totally see how they would think we are all like the people in movies. I thank the expats that move to these kind of places. They show them we are as real as they are. Much like people learn about people in America.
Hey! I just watched a video of the 1st girl and I wonder if her boyfriend is the same guy from the previous video ive seen 👀 and her name is Jayla!
Yeah wondering the same, do you know her @?
@shilohumeh1330 I don't, no one posted it on the other video either. Someone asked I believe. I hope its him tho!
The gasp I gosped when she said Virginia! We out here!!!
Media representation and close-mindedness of Korean people due to lack of diversity in the country lead to these unshakeable beliefs in stereotypes. Black female rappers are probably one of the most well known forms of media of us and it doesn’t necessarily suck, what sucks is that it’s the only real form that gets traction. What also sucks is that simple-minded individuals exist that take everything at surface level. Most Asian dominated countries (China, Korea, and more) just can’t find it within themselves to understand that what they see online may not represent a whole demographic of people (shocking, right?). It seems like a very easy to understand concept but they just can’t grasp it.
In addition, South Korea had the highest number of removal requests to Google by the Korean government in the world. I don't know the details of why, but I can tell you that it is a very controlling country.
Yeah, they can only name white artist from America 😗y’all are hilarious stop blaming black, female, American artist😬
@@freesia2252 well we are talking about black females, so the only representatives of black females can be black females. Black female rappers are at the forefront of representation in our community, no need to be in denial about it. Black doctors, models, actors, pop singers, teachers, and more are rarely placed on platforms that can reach that wide of a range of people. It’s unfortunate.
Koreans are not definitively more close-minded than western countries , on the topic of dating & marriage. There is actually a lot more diversity than you're giving it credit for, plus in the countries that you think are better, let's not act like bIac women have the same opportunites as wite women, not even close. Let's not act like a Vietnamese dude will be treated equally to a wite dude, not even close.
I love this ladies, more power to them ❤
이 채널은 보통 한국의 어두운 면만 밝혀내려고 유도하는 듯.
Well, a lot of the experiences are around Blck people so unless you’re going to claim that they are being dishonest, it’s just the truth. It might make you uncomfortable because you know deep down inside they’re not lying.
@@thezu9250Well said
God bless these brave beautiful women for gracefully embracing the culture! I am ethnic Korean and I would not be able to survive the high pressure culture there!!
