re: question
Kiseung had an initiation of the" Chignon",the putting up of hair.
What was the significance of that…?
Why a burial mound?
I'm sorry, who's Kiseung? And what does "chignon" mean in ancient Korean?

re: question for a korean
I was just curious if a korean and an american have children. considering when whites and blacks have children they are called maloto or millato or something so what would a korean white baby be called just curious as i live with one as a roomate.
They would be called, "Please just shut the fuck up."
re: (no subject)
I've been living here for several years now, grew up in Europe, but this country has the highest percentage of dumb, selfish, egocentric people I've ever experienced. Just hard work and discipline doesn't cut it. Moral, ethics and sincerity are equally important.

Glad to be a non-korean
So, your question is...?
More stupidity, after the jump.

re: Love
Dear Korean,
I'm in love with a Korean man I met online who was in the US on business trip. I've known him for some time now and when he travels back and forth to the US we keep in contact through email, Skype, and meet up if he's in my state. He's an aircraft mechanic. He wants to move to the US but, his English still is not perfect though it is improving greatly now. Do you know how I can help him to stay in the US longer than his passport allows? If not able to give suggestions on that can you tell me something's I should know about maybe Korean etiquette or any other useful information about dating a Korean?
Thank you,
Jennifer [NAME REDACTED]
PS: I found you by googling Korean penis size as we were intimate recently and he is very very very small; which doesn't bother me because he fits a lot better in my mouth. (I have a bit of an oral fixation.)
Sorry if my English and grammar isn't very perfect at times. I am hard of hearing and mainly use sign language to communicate and it's in French grammar. :D

Somewhere in the world, a deaf woman met a Korean aircraft mechanic via online dating, and now schemes of immigration fraud. All the Korean wants for Christmas is not having to hear about another man's penis size.

re: Korean women
I was told that when dating a Korean woman, they either crushed your opinion or your balls. Now what I assume the person meant by that was either you have no say or you're single, but I don't think Korean women would be that mean can you please shed some light on this situation? All help is greatly appreciated.
Ok, who was talking to this guy? The Korean needs to speak with you first.
re: Could you describe Korea's culture please?
[There was nothing in the body of the email.]
This question needs to be broader and more vague to be answered properly.
re: Korean Love, Korean Drama
Dear Korean,
I'm a girl from Poland. I became interested in Korea few years ago and since that moment more and more I fall in love with this country. And that's what I'm curious about - Korean love - do they take it THAT seriously like in Korean Dramas? Is it true that a man can do anything to get a woman he's fallen for? Or is it a bit exaggerated and there's no different between Korean love and love in Europe? I know that Korean Dramas are only TV shows, but they are also beautiful ways of showing love - delicate and artistic - not like in Hollywood films.
Thank you in advance,
Karolina.

The Korean will let you in on a secret, Karolina. EVERYTHING YOU SEE ON KOREAN TELEVISION IS COMPLETELY TRUE. Like, 100%. They just tie the cameras on the street lamps and let them roll.

re: North Korea AHHH!!!
Dear Fellow Korean.
Hello, I am a high schooler in Seattle.
Now, I'll be going to Seoul over summer break and what worries me most is North Korea right now.
What will happen if the war starts when I'm over there? Will I be able to come back to the States or will I be stuck in Korea until the war's over?
Which leads to...
So, let's say that I'm stuck in Korea and the war has started.
I can't speak Korean very fluently, though I can understand it. I can read most Korean but I suck at writing.
What will happen to me?
Will the North Koreans hate on me or send me somewhere to a concentration camp or something?
I'm sorry to load you with all these questions but I'm really scared for what's going to happen.
I (like everyone else) have family there and I have my future planned out and I don't want this to come as a surprise to me.
Please let me know if you can offer any help!
Thanks!
North Koreans will definitely test you on your Korean ability before they decide to send you to concentration camp. In fact, North Korean gulags are full of Korean Americans like yourselves, who never listened to your parents' plea to pay attention at your Saturday Korean school.
re: Can you read and write Korean?
Hi! Just wondering if you can read and write in Korean?
No, I'm an idiot. I lived in Korea through high school and never learned to read and write. Korean educational system failed me completely.
re: How is the following written in Korean using two vertical lines
I am wanting to have the following as a tattoo using two vertical lines. Also please verify the translation.

Once you go Asian, you won't go Caucasian
First line: Once you go Asan
Second line: you won't go Caucasian

You should just get that tattoo. You can't read it anyway, so why does it matter?
re: ask a Korean
Hello, I am 16 years old now. Please look at the attached photo (I am

average/ugly based on Korean standard ? Just freely to tell me the
truth, I'll never mind hehe. And, please just reply it here. Thanks!

The Korean thinks he will reply to you here, in public, for everyone to see. Here is the reply: stop being dumb.
re: Well, I need a lttle bit of help with my Korean Name
Dear Korean,
But now I don't know how I'm gonna find my name, can you help me ?
Can I see your driver's license, Ms. "God of full of blessings and indicates a person who only matures after much struggle for balance between reason and heart. She's seen as someone who doesn't knows what she wants, but when she decides she dedicates with body and soul to achieve her ideals"?
re: Wax for Koreans?
Hello! Im having so many doubts about how do Koreans wax or what kind of process women in Korea do to have the beautiful skin. I've seen they have such a nice armpits, what's the secret of this? Also korean idols look incredibly flawless with their nice armpits. I've tried cold wax, one of those american products but I don't think is that useful like how Koreans use it, I'm very intrigued by this, and it would be nice if you can help me. Thank you"

re: Im confused....
Hey Korean guy,
So basically I like Korean guys a lot more than white guys or any other race. I am mixed white and Hispanic and I started liking Korean guys while dating my first bf (he was Korean) I thought he was really .... not attractive.. at first, but later I saw him as really cute. I have no clue how it happened, but it did. But only two of my friends know I like Korean guys because to be honest I'm embarrassed. It's Not of the fact that I like them but the fact that some other girls who like Korean guys are like CRAZY about them, and their culture, and even try to act Korean. Idk I find that annoying. ..but I like Korean culture.. and I want to look Korean... but I dislike those type of girls who do that, especially if their really really white and look nothing like an Asian; I'm just being honest about my own feelings. Also for or some reason people look down on amwf relationships either as the guy has a white girl fetish or the girl has a Asian fetish. I hate the word fetish and never want anyone to call me that. Also I don't want to date a guy just because he's Asian. But I feel like more Asian guys like me because I have dark hair and pale skin and have some of "ideal" Asian features. But I hear all the time Asian guys like white girls but usually only date Asian girls. Also a lot of the Asian guys at my school know I dated an Asian guy so maybe they look at me more because of that reason. I know your not all knowing but really I would just like your opinion in all this mess in my head. I have some Korean friends but they all stick together most of the time and I don't want to hang out with them in a group and seem like a wanna be Asian girl. I only tend to make friends with the Asian people in my classes, its like I just gravitate towards them. If there's no one Asian in my class I don't really try to make friends. Even my Korean friends don't know I want to be Korean and only one knows I like Asian guys. Its because I act clueless when they bring stuff up about Korea. (I don't listen to k pop though) but I think I just like the perception of innocence and cuteness in Korean culture, I've only watched about two Korean dramas and I really loved how the relationships were so cute and innocent. I know that's probably not how its like in Korea all the time, but I like the idea. Also some Korean women looks so beautiful and mysterious yet also cute and I want to look that way too. Basically I never tell anyone this and I just need a second opinion on my weird problem, Also someone to get me to calm myself down :p
Sincerely, really confused...
The Korean never, ever wants to hear from another Asian man whining about how he can't get girls as long as these people exist.
re: Korean emotions
Asians, for the most part, pride themselves for not showing emotion, or letting others know what they are thinking. Why are Koreans so free in expressing outbursts of anger and hurt in public?
Maybe what you think you know about Asians is completely wrong.
re: Hello!
Hi there! I'm from Australia and I've been highly thinking about moving to Korea to try to become well known or famous.
Is this possible? Aron from Nu'est was American, I believe and moved to Korea to Stufy music and became famous.
Please give me a lot of detailed information on becoming famous and Arons big change ^^
Thank you
Becoming is famous is easy. More difficult is controlling what you become famous for.

re: Traditional Gift basket for a Korean household
Okay, I feel helpless with this. Here is the situation, my daugter is seeing a Korean, his family is Korean (mother is from Pusan?) and his father is military. This past weekend the family came to see my daughter - a 5 hour drive. We in turn will be going to see them. I would like to put together a gift basket, but am not sure of what to give. I have scoured the web sites and these are what I came across as items to put into a gift basket. My son-in-law(to be) says to not bring anything - although his parents dislike that he has become too "Americanized" I feel since they have a traditional Korean home, I would bring a basket with some or all of these items:
Korean Tea - ginseng, yuja, persimmon
Asian Pears
Soju for father in law
Sriracha and other hot sauces (mini bottles)
Segmented servign dishes
Rice
Chopsticks
Lychee
Bok Choy
See, I am at a complete loss. I am learning the bow, when and how to bow to whom (elders), and am attempting to learn han'gul. I do not want to go without a gift, so please, I know you do not answer all of your e-mails, but I am hoping that you response to this one. I see them in 2 weeks.
Thank you in advance for any and all help!
Racist gift basket! This is straight out of a stand-up comic routine, except this email was written sincerely--which makes this email doubly awesome. Congratulations, you well-meaning lady who wants to pack lychee and bok choy for Koreans! You win the Worst Email of 2013.
