Ahh, so it's against the law? Personal feelings about whether or not it should be illegal aside, I still don't see it as the same thing. Smoking weed is supposed to be a personal and private decision, much like dating is, and getting caught doesn't make it any less so. It's a stupid decision, considering his career, but still a private one. If GeeD had been stoned on a variety show, that's a different story, but since he did it in his own free time, outside of working hours, it's still a self-contained action. Idols should be expected to be mindful of the public eye while they're in a professional capacity, but I don't think that extends to things they think they do in private, although they should also expect themselves to be caught considering the public nature of their lives. |

lol no, they speak konglish i think most of their friends are other foreigners, so they don't feel the need to learn to speak Korean properly they're not really 'integrated' into Korea, they still live in their own foreigner bubble |

yeah just like almost English teachers in Korea. they can't speak korean. don't even try to learn it. It's so annoying when people who live in foreign country for some years act like they know everything about that country look at them, they don't even understand joking about someone's parents is so bad in Korea and saying like Korean don't like sarcasm

if someone's going to use their videos as evidence of some claim about a culture, i think it's necessary for people who know the language and culture to inform them of how unreliable those videos are. i think it's also natural to feel annoyed when someone claims to know more than they truly do about something, and pass on faulty knowledge to people who might not know to not trust them as experts on the topic. |

I could be wrong but I think Windmill was just using the video as a reaction, telling you to cry her a river. |

i know what she meant by the video. "cry me a river", meaning she thought the other anon was complaining about something petty. i'm trying to explain why anon's reaction is understandable. |

a little OT, S.K. is one country I wouldn't like to live in, frankly I think pretty much evey country in Asia or in the east not racist or anything, I can admire some aspects of their culture and in other countries as well, but I think it's always a huge cultural shock whenever someone from western culture tries to fit in in the east the way we handle things seem to be very much different along with our way of thinking. I can't find anything similar I rather admire the good aspects from a distance I would visit if I had the chance, but not settle in |

i think that's pretty normal. that's why i have a lot of respect for tiffany (and other foreign idols), who left their home country and learned a language and culture different from the ones they were raised in. it takes an open mind, humility and thick skin. |

Not sure if it's just one anon (even though the writing style is always very similar) but she always makes the same posts about us not getting Korean culture so we shouldn't have our opinion ready. It's always the same shit when we criticize anything that is connected to the korean culture. Sure, there are some aspect of the culture that we don't understand but that does't mean that we are always in the wrong. Every country has their shitty side and if people feel like expressing their opinion on that, let them! And she also started trashing foreign teacher while there is absolutely no reason for that. These people are educating the Korean students to become better at a foreign language, they shouldn't be hated on. I agree that foreigners should try to adjust, but the country they live in can sometimes also try and adjust to the foreigners. (I live in The Netherlands and we have a ton of immigrants from different cultures so it's not like I don't understand the situation) And Simon and Martina don't only have foreign friends, they also stated several times that they have Korean friends - so please stop acting all ignorant towards them because that's the exact same thing you like to claim that we do towards you culture. They also usually say before their videos on in the comment section that they aren't always 100% correct so everything should be taken with a grain of salt. |

And i'm still thankful for that. I think people should be able to express their opinions and it's not like everyone can agree most of the time. It's good that foreign anons' give their side of the story when it comes to Korean culture because it educated us about foreign cultures, however, that doesn't mean that whoever lives in the country where that culture belongs to is always right. There is a thing called nationalism and some Korean anons sure act chauvinistic when one small bad thing is said about their country. |

If you knew the reputation that western "teachers" have over there, you'd understand why they're scrutinized so heavily. Many of them aren't even qualified to be teaching over there in the first place. |
