I broke down when the girl said she did not want her mother to come to school because she looked different. The weird standards society sets up that even kids that age try to conform to is ridiculous and so painful. Yes once you are an adult you realize the stupidity of such things but her mom must had a difficult time 😢
Same I also felt the same thing when I was young😭
Me too, and like her I feel so ashamed that I felt that way. We were only young and didn’t know better I suppose.
Racist !!
i mean lets be real. the girl is stupid. no more and no less. she wanted to be normal. as if the mother is an alien.
You are part of the society.
This man should be respected. This is because adult men, even if they have dual citizenship, their Korean nationality will be canceled if they do not go to the military. He went to the military without receiving the minimum wage (until a few years ago, the Korean military salary was less than 10% of the minimum wage) and had few out-of-home vacations. Nearly 90 percent of men go to the military because the birth rate is now low and there are no people. In this situation, it is amazing that he went to the military even though he has dual nationality.
yep. It's even more surprising that he chose a military from a country that has the least respect for soldiers in the world.
Korea doesn’t allow dual citizenship so he most likely renounced he Austrian citizenship. Honesty a dumb idea, Austrian citizenship is worth more.
yes. His appearance in a contrived show that only talks about problems faced by foreigners in Korea is amazing. And maybe people will focus and enjoy how discriminated against Japanese and mixed-race people have appeared on this show. Because that's why this show exists
@@organizedchaos4559 It is not known whether he renounced his Austrian nationality. As far as I know, Austria also allows dual citizenship in some cases. What is clear is that in the case of Korea, men lose their Korean nationality if they do not join the military. Women are not obligated to serve in the military, so it doesn't matter. (but women can choose professional soldiers) And it's none of your business which country's citizenship is more valuable. Because it's his choice. I read your comment and searched Austria a little bit. It's a good country. yeah..
@@lily7001 Don't fall for bait. Look at his name. No use talking to that.
her brother looks exactly like their mom lol
Yep, tha is genetics, boys look like moms and girls like dads.
No he doesn't lol
I would've never guessed she's half Austrian just by her looks. She looks just Korean. Wish the couple the best!
If she hadn’t said anything, I might’ve thought she is full Korean as well. But since she said she’s half Austrian, I can see a bit.
To Koreans she looks mixed.
@@maybritt6457 uh ok. That is obvious, otherwise she wouldn't be bullied...
@@katet8639 This happens in every racial group. What is new? Another UA-cam comments section that demonizes Koreans for something that happens across the board, only it’s easy to sensationalize Koreans. Eurocentrism runs deep.
She looks mixed to me
As a fellow half Korean, this is sadly a really common experience amongst half Koreans living in Korea, especially for those of us who cannot fully "pass" as Korean. Even those who look more Korean or are fully Asian still face the same problems as soon as it is revealed that they are not a "pure Korean". I remember growing up and trying to cover my face as much as possible (sunglasses, mask, hat) because I hated how people treated me differently at best, or harshly at worst. I'm only in my 20s and honestly not much has drastically changed in terms of the societal mindset, within my lifetime alone at least. It is honestly the most strangest and insulting feeling to have lived your entire life in a country, share the ethnic blood and background, and yet still be treated as an outsider or a tourist just because people cannot understand biracial or multicultural people. Especially for a young child who is still growing up and trying to figure out their identity, it can be the most isolating feeling in the world, even more so when I had people avoid me or not be bothered with trying to have an actual relationship beyond a simple surface level interaction. And best part is when monoracial Koreans insist these problems do not exist and try to speak over half Koreans, getting offended that we bring up our experiences instead of trying to listen and learn.
It's not exclusive to Korea or Asia, it's a human nature thing to wanna fit into the group. Even in America, and Western countries in general, many Asian kids are ashamed of their ethnic name, and feel embarassed when their parents speak their ethnic language in public. A lot of you believe this idea that this culture is so different and exotic, but it's really not that different , certainly not exotic.
@@Cxs1a3eah this is pretty much an Asian thing in the United States if you’re half Asian and you look Asian someone would just think you’re Asian you wouldn’t be ostracized like this girl. It’s just so look at the Asian kid not look at the half breed…
Yeah you can make the argument that the reverse is also exotic, it’s a reason China has white monkey jobs they hire you specifically because you’re white and exotic.
@@Wingzero90939 It's not at all an Asian exclusive, many African Americans and mainland Africans also have this issue. Latinos have easy to pronounce names by westerners, but I can assure you a lot of them look down on their own people as well. This girl wasn't "ostracized" at all. That's an overexaggeration of a relatively minor struggle to prove an invalid point.
China is far less developed, economically, but in this conetext, socially than Korea, there aren't reports of such jobs existing to any signiificant degree, in more developed East Asian socieities, where people are raised to higher standards.
@@Cxs1a3 (Don't bother reading or replying to my comment unless you want to. I am only reflecting the thought that came to my mind after reading your comment by writing here before I forget.)
This is something that interracial couples must seriously consider before having children, because the consequence (whether good or bad) of their decision will affect someone that had nothing to do with that decision. Obviously, children do not ask to be born in a certain way, but for better or worse they are forced to live the way they are born.
Like you mentioned, it is human nature to be more comfortable who look and think alike, and as such, people of the same race generally have easier time understanding and trusting each other than people of other race. At the same time, it is human nature that forces us to feel cautious and vigilant of those we are not used to. Different people have show different reactions to the same feeling, which is probably why some exhibit aggression while some exhibit morbid curiosity towards something (or someone) they are not used to. Most likely it is this nature at work when a bi-racial person is made to feel self-conscious by the reactions of other people in a mono-ethnic setting.
Would it be fair or even sensible to fault people for their human nature?
Most of the time the way people react to their feelings are subconscious and automatic, because hardly anyone stop and go over their options to pick the most appropriate reaction to their feeling in a given situation, and as a result, quite often people react inappropriately to the detriment to themselves and others. While it is possible to train people to exercise restraint and carefully consider their feeling in relation to the given circumstances before reacting to their feeling as a way to reduce inappropriate reactions (in psychology/psychiatry we call this 'Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy'), at the end of the day, most people exhibit a particular pattern of reaction according to their genetic predispositions and upbringing. In other words, whether you are in Korea or Russia or the US, people will always be prejudiced as it is in their human nature to be, and the only difference will be in how that prejudice manifests itself.
You may claim to be open-minded and to see everyone equally, but the force of human nature will always influence your behavior whether you like it or not, whether you acknowledge it or not, and sometimes it will betray your claims. Like I mentioned earlier, people's reaction to their inner feelings are almost always automatic and subconscious. It has been said that the worst form of racism is silent. People show it with their actions and the way they treat others, rather than with what people say. Again, people are just reacting to the force of their human nature, and they will never be able to understand their reactions or the effect it has on themselves and others unless they seriously reflect upon themselves.
This is neither good or bad. It just is. Perhaps different races came to exist as a result of similar kind of people getting together to form their own community in a given geographic area, and the similarities just became reinforced over multiple generations to a point that we have different races in different parts of the world.
Only recently in human history that people are able to overcome great geographic separation with ease with the technology of modern transportation, and thus the recent increase in multi-racial couples and multi-racial children. Human nature is a result of thousands of years of evolution, so it is extremely unlikely that at anytime soon it will catch up to the ever changing social practices brought on by the recent advances in technology.
While it will be up to each individual to believe whether it it 'right' or 'wrong' to have multi-racial children, it is important to understand that one's own belief alone does not have any effect on the overall human nature or the behavior of others according to the human nature. Specifically, the decision to have multi-racial children must be made in consideration of the overall human nature, not just on personal belief, especially given that the consequence of that decision will be born largely by the children who themselves had no say in the decision whatsoever.
If a bi-racial child feels ashamed as a result of his experience in the society, the parent must come to terms with it, and make as much effort as possible to help the child endure and overcome his anxiety. The child had never asked to be born, much less asked to be born in a world whose nature is beyond his control, so the parents must do their part to help him feel justified in his existence.
@@thepunisher2988 "This is something that interracial couples must seriously consider before having children, because the consequence (whether good or bad) of their decision will affect someone that had nothing to do with that decision. Obviously, children do not ask to be born in a certain way, but for better or worse they are forced to live the way they are born." The key here is "forced to live the way they are born," which is basically a coin flip - which could mean either a hell on earth or a generally smooth ride. I 100% agree and wish people as a whole think more carefully about who they marry. And I agree with what you said about the world progressing technologically and people's social norms not catching up. I as a human being want respect and acknowledgement from other people yet I too have my own biases and preferences. Human nature is to be a hypocrite. And also this bit: "If a bi-racial child feels ashamed as a result of his experience in the society, the parent must come to terms with it, and make as much effort as possible to help the child endure and overcome his anxiety. The child had never asked to be born, much less asked to be born in a world whose nature is beyond his control, so the parents must do their part to help him feel justified in his existence." The part about "never asked to be born" is 100% on point. The fault is 100% the parents' if the child feels ashamed due to how he/she is made. Because in the beginning, the parents made that decision to create a child like that. It is NOT the child's fault whatsoever, just like it is nobody's fault to be born a certain way because absolutely none of us asked to be born. Although all of us have our own biases and preferences, we are all born innocent, and how society treats people can leave a lasting scar on an otherwise loving, considerate, generous, devoted, and sensitive human being. Nature impacts us to a point, but nurture is also critical too. Parents need to think about the impact that being in and interacting with a tribal society will have on their children. And by tribal, I mean not just the child's heritage tribes but other tribes in society, who will surely look at them differently than at their single heritage peers. Otherwise, the child could end up resentful, confused, and hurt in so many different ways. It could be a nightmarish, catastrophic situation for the child if they are never able to fully integrate into THEIR tribal society; therefore, parents MUST think about this VERY CAREFULLY before having children. If the child ends up feeling any of these negative emotions due to the aforementioned reasons, it is NOT their fault; it is 100% the PARENTS'. Otherwise, if it's not likely to be an easy ride, I would recommend just not having children at all. It is not worth it to alleviate your own loneliness and want for a child at the cost of the child's future psychological, social, economic, and relational well being. It is never worth it to sacrifice a human life just for your own selfish desires. Otherwise, all parties will suffer dearly. "Specifically, the decision to have multi-racial children must be made in consideration of the overall human nature, not just on personal belief, especially given that the consequence of that decision will be born largely by the children who themselves had no say in the decision whatsoever." Yes, on point. Particularly when human society evolved tribally and historically, resources, opportunities to advance societal position, and romance all centered around the tribe you were born into.
the daughter is SO PRETTY
I envy how close this family is. They look like a good heart warming family 💕
thank you for translating and uploading these videos! Please keep it up, i really enjoy this series !! 💗
Austria/Österreich in the house!! Yeah - endlich auch mal unsere Nationalität 😘
You only have one mother. Cherish her.
Her mom truly became a Korean! 😂 got her a boyfriend and everything!
hahaha true.. the way she spoke just like native korean with all the expresssions
I went though the same thing when I was young, but now I love showing off my dad. I think this have something to do with stage of life. I used to also embarrassed to eat alone. Now I am fine eating alone, it’s weird:
She’s literally fits the beauty standard better than 90% of Korean women.
She’s a model so she’s meant to be prettier than everyone else
It depends wasian kids in korea benefit from pretty privileges since they tend to posses eurocentric features that's appreciated like fair skin and big eyes but they can still be discriminated by xenophobic koreans.
@@marshmallow7640 she wasn't a model when she came out of the womb
@@VolumePerfection doesn’t matter, the prettiest people become models. Of course a model fits the beauty standard better than everyone else, that’s why they are a model in the first place.
@@marshmallow7640 ????
I don’t understand the discrimination against mixed Asian kids. It seems like many Korean actors etc get cosmetic surgery to reduce their Korean features and appear mixed themselves. 🙄
because people like to feel superior to others? Happens in every country when you don't look homologous.

Just watched Exhuma and saw the Mother as the nurse . And remembered her from here . I was so happy to watch her in the movie as I know her felt like some one from my family was in the movie. 😂😍
What a surprise the daughter to find when she realizes she too should be embarrassed about how she looks exactly like her beautiful mother.
I wish we had seen the dad also!
lmao her dad appeared in pictures multiple times what are u talking about
@@hnyuq4049 we didn’t hear from the dad, that’s what I’m talking about. Pictures don’t say much
I think this Tv show is more focused on the foreigner point of view.
SONG LIN GETS THE LADY LAUGH. THE BOY THAT BULLIED HER IN SCHOOL, hope he sees how successful she is now.
From my understanding, Korea allows dual citizenship only for specific situations/countries but the line is a bit blurry because for the most part they don’t do it. I’m American-Korean and I thought I lost my citizenship in Korea when I became naturalized in the US but when I went to Korea this last April, even though I had a US passport, the government still knew everything about me and treated me like a Korean citizen because of my mother. If you’re a man and coming into age and living in the US as a permanent residence, you have the option of renouncing your military enlistment but you lose your citizenship to Korea and there’s no turnin back once you say no.
I am Chinese, but grew up in Austria and from what I know about Austrian law is that usually they do not accept dual citizenship, only if there are special occasions. I had some colleagues from high school, who had British Austrian dual citizenship, but my mum and I were only allowed to either have the Austrian or the Chinese citizenship and we chose to have the Austrian one. I guess Austria and Korea have some special agreements to allow citizens to have a dual citizenship.
My father told me the same thing. When he was little, he didnt want his father to come to his school because his father look 'different' from other fathers ( his father is Chinese and his mom is Dutch ). I remember when he told me that story, my mom ( a German ) cried hearing that.
I don't know Korean at all but as soon as the mother started talking I thought she had a German accent and then turns out she is Austrian haha close enough
Our neighbours:)
She's so pretty omo🥺😭
Idk what they're talking about but she looks so Korean. If she has her mom's features, it's very subtle.
That’s what I thought too
In the pictures of her as a child she looks mixed.
Are you Asian ? Because I think Asian people notice easily when someone is half-white. I’m Japanese and to me she looks mixed. That’s also why mixed kids get bullied at school, because they are easy target and children notice immediately when someone look different.
@@rymc3437 i bully everyone who bully me
@@rymc3437 im asian. she just looks... asian. but maybe thats because i live in sea when many people from many ethnics/races live
👌🏻😁they look great and cool together
I'm so lucky I was born on the One Happy island better known as Aruba. I'm multi mixed Irish, Spaniard,West African and Caiquetio aka a tribe from the Arawak nation. We have over 90 different nationalities here living peacefully together. We don't have this kinda ridiculous mindset going on. Remember under the heavens we're all the same.
better yet we all bleed the same blood! haha mostly 😅🤘😉💙
It is always different when you are in a homogenous country... being homogenous isnt necessarily a bad thing though.
Now people can see it as bad or not but it is just different when homogenous countries aint used to other cultures, nationalities, looks etc it can be hard for foreigners. Not a reason to be mean to foreigners , thats for sure.
Some places I guess still need more time to open up more and get used to diversity.
Hey Aruba, Curaçao is in the building too 🇨🇼 i get exacly what you're saying
@@Niki91-HR Homogeneous places has its pros and cons. The biggest con is how it marginalizes/excludes minority groups and how you aren't experiencing the benefits of a homogeneous society unless you are viewed as a fellow in-group member. All those benefits of looking out for others, sacrificing for the general whole, etc they're not going to do if they see you as a foreigner or someone who does not belong.
@@blue3374 well multicultural places have also pros and cons....like everything in this world.
Now it depends. My country is generally very homogenous but it is a little european country that is used to foreigners for a long time due to history and especially tourism which is quite big.
I think it also depends how closed off you are from the world, in the sense of influences of media and how touristy a place is and so on.
Maybe homogenous places in the West are a bit different from homogenous places from the East.
Thats somewhat my observation.
But when you aint exposed as much as others to foreigners like for example S.Korea...it can cause some problems to foreigners. Different places evolved differently 🤷🏻♀️
Although I have to say that it is sometimes easier when you live in a homogenous place. But that is just from my perspective 😅
You have a point too though.
They seem so nice!
Eyyoo Nebobo is here 🤣💜
Austrian mum speaks Korean 👍🔥❤️
Nice couple
It’s about time they had different nationalities. I’ve watched this show since the beginning but stopped for a while since kbs stopped subbing the full episode. But isn’t he the second Japanese on the show?
Please KBS upload full episodes with English subtitles !! I’m ready to pay a monthly subscription for any websites 😭😭😭!!!!!!!!!!!
They are Korean in spirit ❤️😍❤️
Wait lmao, why did I think the guy and the Austrian mom were the married couple?
Opps.
How
LOLL
@@CherryBerry-jn1jy I guess I wasn't paying attention. They mentioned the mixed-race daughter so I assumed he was the father and the austrian mom was the wifey lololol

이웃집 찰스 진행자 바뀌었네. 잘 바꿨다.
shes so pretty omg
genetics are crazy... she looks full korean to me but the brother looks just like their mom copy/pasted lmao
no. you won't find a single full korean who looks anything like her.
she looks more South East Asian, Koreans only have these features with makeup and plastic surgery
It's quite common for language learners to date foreigners in definitely Korea and maybe Japan to improve language abilities so I'm not surprised she made that comment in the beginning, she wasn't trying to drive a wedge or anything
That's absolutely disgusting, and then they complain about the "yellow fever"
True kkk that’s why in Seoul I mostly dated/hangout with people who knew well English or speak only Korean without the intention to learn or speak English cuz I got so upset once. I met this Korean girl and she was suuuuper nice, we had fun ecc until she decided she probably practiced enough English and ghosted me☠️😂I’m sure I did nothing wrong to her since we had pretty superficial, easy peasy conversations. It was just sooo sudden and I was so sad cuz we had so much fun…so imagine doing like this in a RELATIONSHIP ☠️
It clicked only now, the woman on the panel is Zen's mommy. She looked so familiar
“I usually take a cab home alone. They’re only doing this to look good for the cameras.” 😅
Cause I'm your ladyyy 😩🤣🤣
She does not look like a foreigner to me, I would not have known because she looks Korean.
This is interesting
Back then it was very bad but nowadays it's improved a little there still is the same thing but it's not as frequent as back in the day
songrim looks like a mix between nam jihyun and moon gayoung... she's so pretty
omg so on point!!
WAIT OMG I THOUGHT THE JAPANESE GUY WAS HER DAD WTF?
Oi si tito boy nasa korea na!! 😲
Her brother has asian features but still looks like his mom. Genetics are a cool and crazy thing. The girl to me looks fully Asian for example.
But I guess as a European I am not as able as Asians, especially East Asian to tell if someone looks mixed or not or who is Korean or Japanese or Chinese ,etc....at least in most cases, some cases can be pretty obvious though.
I wonder if it is the same for Eastasians while looking at us Europeans...we may be predominantly white and look alike, but I really am wondering if it is hard for them to tell us apart as well.
I’m white living in Korea and people obsess over it and complement you all the time, I can definitely say she gets a lot of attention positively, I mean that is why she’s a model
Not the whities thinking they pass Asian beauty standards even though they have big ass noses 😬😂😂😂🤭🤭🤭
@@minipeeny9475 Korean men thirsty for europen beauties not flat nose asian women, bye bye hahahaha
As a black guy I seriously wish I could go but honestly it’s sadly probably going to be the opposite experience for me lol. Not saying white foreigners don’t have to face discrimination either, but just that they’re probably the more likely preferred foreigners than most other groups.
@@Jkd_77 no don’t worry I know all the black people in my town and they have had good experiences too. We live in busan where there isn’t foreigners too. A lot of people will wanna be friends and people in Korea are too shy to confront you even if they are racist, it’s not in their culture.
@@Jkd_77 You're probably right, life ain't fair, but you needa accept it and make the most of it. What I will say with whites, they may face significantly less discrimination than "your kind", but it's not as if they're "accepted" as "one of us" in Asia, that's not to say they don't enjoy unique advantages only they have that even Asians don't have.
Where is gma’s husband? I’m sorry, did they not mention?
Maybe it’s just me but honestly she looks 100% Korean/Asian in general to me. Like she really took after her dad’s side more.
Genuinely if I had seen her on the street I would’ve easily perceived her as such and not think much of it. I be would be very surprised to learn that she was biracial. So it’s kinda strange to me how she was still discriminated against despite looking hardly no different from many Korean girls. 🤔
Interesting, she looks Asian to me but I definitely can tell she’s mixed, her skull structure and features are quite different
To korean, I guess she looks mixed. And beside kids are cruel. If you look slightly different, you will get hammer down.
She looks mixed lol
Her nose and jaw definetely don't look Korean but European instead.
Very few Koreans have such large eyes like she does naturally so I’d say she looks mixed
Korean beauty standards mean they want to look more white but she seems to fit their beauty standards and she still gets bullied?
Cause they like pure Koreans who are pretty more. Ask yourself why there are not that many mixed Korean celebs compared to Japan
Pretty girls get bullied for being pretty, that's common knowledge. Regarding "wanting to look white", they like the cute Eurasian look that is nothing like what an average European woman looks like.
Listen
Korean beauty standard are not to look white
Many Korean naturally have pale skin
Double eyelid. Many Korean women have double eyelid and people prefer single eyelid on mens
High nose bridge Korean don't want big nose like white people. They just want slightly higher nose bridge and it is not rare

@@genm5998 nothing, I met her and she was a very beautiful intelligent mother.

Lol the brother looks more korean
I'm half Korean but raised in the states and at times I was embarrassed of my Korean mom who was a single parent bc the American kids thought she was different.
Hey fam ♡ I'm Caucasian American, and I want to say that I think you are really awesome. ♡ And your mom is so special ♡ I'm sure it was hard at times, and I'm sorry for that. Thank you for all the times you are patient with your mom, even when it can be hard. I'm sure she is doing her best.
Currently, I date a Korean man here in the USA, and I love the culture so much. He invited me to his Korean church, and I've been there for 7 years, and I have had the opportunity to learn so much about Koreans and their culture. Though both cultures are different, they are so beautiful. ♡ I'm sorry if anyone was ever rude to you about it. Many blessings ♡
I am so sorry you went through that! Korean culture is so beautiful!
She is different though, I get America, white, blacks , Latinos all have their differences, but Asian culture is completely on its own island in terms of how different it is compared to those other cultures.
I hope my daughter won't feel embarrassed by me. She is half Korean and I'm a single mom raising her in Korea. She is 7 now and a first grader. Her school and our area have many multicultural families so thankfully there hasn't been any issues.
This is very interesting because I'm half Korean and also lived in the states but I never felt out of place because my mom was a single Korean parent. There are more Asians and minorities as a whole in the US than there are foreigners in Korea; even if you adjust the proportions according to population sizes. Meanwhile, when I lived in Korea it was the complete opposite and I actually felt embarrassed and marginalized about being both biracial and having a single parent, kind of like a double whammy.
One of God's commandments is HONOR YOUR PARENTS.
If you are mixed in the Philippines, you will be a stand-out among the rest. You will have opportunities in showbizness. It's sad in South Korea that if you are mixed you will be out of place.

there can be stronger discrimination and racism towards japanese people versus a mixed korean person depending on the area and the age of the people around them. by age i mean older koreans versus younger koreans.
However, at least in Korea, anti-Korea books do not become bestsellers like in Japan.

Then I went back and there was another worker who had a smile and helped me by buying the ticket himself and I thanked him. There is a lot of foreigner discrimination that goes under the table, but there are good people like the worker who actually bought my ticket and helped me with a smile.

this is already 2023 y'all cmon we can do better, i hope koreans and all countries can be more open minded and accepting to one another
The tiny monkey brain still need another 500 yrs to evolve
Korean actrices pay to look like her. I don't get the bulling
Because it was from kids. Kids will mock what makes you different.
Wow. This guy joins the military and you have some K-pop artists who try to weasel out of it (even though they can afford to serve!)
As a female who retired from the military after 20 years I respect anyone who serves their country when it isn’t a requirement 💯
He grew up in Korea and has Korean citizenship.
he was born and raised in korea lmao he has to go to the military
@@misomar7193 he better then. i missed that part.
@@jiminswriter4209 get that ass in fatigues then
Well I heard people get bully in military and that consider normal.
Her face is so edited on those ads... Just why ? Smh
Cuz it's an ad? seriously are you that innocent to not think all ads are edited?
@@Cxs1a3
Sorry to disappoint you but where I'm from, we don't edit videos and ads till the person is unrecognizable. 🙃
If you actually worked in the advertising industry, you might be surprised
When even your daughter is racist and is embarrassed of you. Time to return and exchange the daughter then.
Has nothing to do with racism!
Racism is a Powerplay.
Second of all, humans wants to fit in. Especially kids wanna fit in.
It was her way of fitting in with the other kids. That happens to 90% of biracial kids. It also happened to me.
If she grew up in a white neighborhood the same thing would have happened with her dad.
It's normal.
She look so korean duh🙄🙄🙄
Isn't being Hapa like literally the greatest thing to be in Asia?
If you’re an adult in entertainment or a similar industry, maybe (if you fit the beauty standard). As children, you get bullied, and as adults, people will judge you before they know if you’re Korean or not/treat you as a foreigner. Not even most Korean dislikes foreigners, but a few do, especially in the countryside. Just like any society.
No.
Hapa, only if you're mixed with Caucasian. Even that is less desirable when blood lines are no longer pure. Koreans still prefer purism.
No it isn’t pure.
Koreans prefer pure bloodline overall. Being accepted as just a pretty face and actually being accepted as one of their own is completely different.
korean women dreaming to get White blond blue eyes Handsome man to beautiful children
"I bet he had a lot of Korean girlfriends."
WTF, why would you say that in front of his wife?? Are Koreans usually this careless with their words??
It is just a joke....
LOL calm down.
What 😳her mother is beautiful White blond blue eyes not korean jealousy
Muslim, white, black , brown women running to Korea to get Korean boyfriend, you getting cuked by korean men, bye bye cuk hahahaha
Well then if Koreans face racism or favoritism in America they shouldn’t be nagging.
we need more white girls and asian male married.
Only koreans
Why? It just produces more Asians.
i think the brother maybe "happy". lol
It's weird she was discriminated against because we cannot tell she's half by her looks. She mostly looks Asian to me. So if nobody ever knew her mom was white, would that have prevented the bullying? Personally, I would have thought it was cool and surprising to find out my friend had a parent from another country/race.
She does look more Asian than European but yeahh I would think she’s not 100% Korean because of her traits. But I obviously consider her 100% Korean as she borne and grew up in Korea:)
if you’re asian, it’s easy to tell that some of her features are different from what is common in our communities. korea has a long history of being invaded by foreigners so unfortunately they aren’t viewed or treated very well there. it’s really sad that she got bullied bc of such things :(
Songlim, every human being is created different and unique. No one is the same. Look at your finger prints, none the same with others! You're not made in factory but by two very different individuals. The fact you reject your mother, you reject yourself and the Creator(God) who reated you and gave you life. What does that made you? UNGRATEFUL and shameful of your origin.
Opinions Wanted: 🇯🇵 vs 🇨🇳 vs 🇷🇺
🇯🇵 colonized Choson/Joseon. If they had not, the peninsula would have likely been conquered either by the Chinese or the Russians. (Let’s be real and would have happened.)
• I still preferred that 🇯🇵 colonized the peninsula. I shudder to think how it would be now under the other two. The outcome could have also been far worse even as a unified Corea/Korea. Since the north was more established/prosperous, the entire peninsula would likely fallen under the former Soviet ideologies than what we now know in 🇰🇷.
Side Note: I read that the inhabitants of what is now modern day Korea(s) also migrated to the archipelago islands of 日本 🇯🇵 over 2300 years ago. The indigenous island locals were Jomons (Mongoloids). Therefore, the modern day Japanese could be an ancient Korean/Jomon blend?? Technically, the Japanese are ancient blended Koreans? 🫠
When DNA testing was completed from other Koreans I know (adopted in the States), they were also 20-25% Japanese.
I am also curious to know if I will have other Asian heritage since most Koreans tell me I don’t look Korean and think I’m Japanese. I do resemble my father who was from the northern coastal region of Hungnam. Northern Koreans may have slightly different features since they were closer to Mongolia, etc. Everyone on my dad’s side of the family had high bridges and bigger noses.
Last week I was with my two aunts in Myeongdong. A street artist vender was chatting in some Japanese. I had no idea who he was talking with, so I asked him, “日本人ですか?” (Are you Japanese?) He looked at me and said, “아니, 당신은 일본인이 아닌가? 그래서 한국어를 모르더라도 이해할 수 있도록 일본어를 사용했습니다.” (No, aren't you Japanese? That's why I used Japanese so you could understand if you didn't know Korean.) Whaaa? This happens to me every week even in the States!
It's not worth reading. Because of you, I should read the Japanese war criminal records again. I will review how many massacre, looting, and war crimes Japan has committed.
And it's only once again that they still distort history and make false propaganda without much reflection
@@Nitimur_in_vetitum Все смешалось у девушки с верху). Я конечно понимаю,что вероятно очень хочется приплести ещё и Российскую Империю, но честно...как-то жалко выглядит)
@@Nitimur_in_vetitumI accidentally deleted my response to you. 😢 If you still have it in your email, can you please copy-paste it, then I’ll repost it. Ugh.
that japanese woman is getting a bit disrespectful
I thought so too. Saying "I bet he had a lot of Korean girlfriends" in front of the wife... But Japanese women don't like Japanese men marrying foreign women. I'm European, my husband is Japanese. Once one woman got angry and said - why did your husband marry you, Japanese women are the most beautiful in the world 😁
No, theres a popular joke that the best way of learning a language is by dating. Pretty sure Lisa was just pretending to be angry. Nobody usually takes it seriously in a negative context.
It is the type of humor foreigners don't get.
no? she was joking, because the husband said just before that - that he hung out with korean friends (so he learned korean pronunciation better), unlike Sayuri, who he is assuming to have had more foreigner friends since her pronunciation isn't as good.
@@einom1236 they just salty because good looking alpha males only marry europen girls like Bruce Lee did, bye bye hahahaha
racist is everywhere... sadly.
