The beauty trends and looks are inspired by Korean movie stars and celebrities, the plastic surgery they choose and skin lightening routines are too look like other Koreans not Julia Roberts.

I wouldn't say it's slightly less racist if there are laws literally encouraging racism in that countryITT: White Americans being smug about the fact that the are slightly less racist compared to the South Koreans despite the fact that South Korea is a pretty homogenous nation and that America claims to be the bastion of human rights and multiculturalism.

A government survey in 2015 showed that 25 per cent of South Koreans do not want a foreigner as a neighbour - far higher than the 5.6 per cent in the US and China's 10.5 per cent.
Is the racist demographic older people? I think since SK is adopting a lot of things from African American culture, like raps and gangster stuff, that the younger crowd will not be racist.
I would think that Japan is also facing similar racist feelings, but they have Jero, the first black Enka singer, that was very popular with the younger crowds.
Sounds to me like your mate was already racist, but just feels safer living in a country where as a white male nobody will bother you. I have heard a lot of white people say that there are no black or muslim people to make them feel threatened.
only 5.6% of people in the US don't want a foreigner as a neighbour?
Err..
The cultural dissonance to have your entire pop-culture built around shit you stole from black street culture and music (much like the rest of east Asia) and yet be revolted by the very idea of a black person being equal to you.
East Asian racism is a special brand of dehumanizing.
Yes.Right but why were blacks enslaved en masse over other populations? Simple logistics?
This too.the african slaves were physically able to tolerate conditions and exposure to illnesses that would kill the whites and the native American slaves. the people they enslaved first began to die out, so they had to go find someone else.

"GAME OVER"
" BAD LUCK "
" MONEY AND POWER "
Jesus christ this article lol. Is the kid successful or is he a flop?
I'm just gonna be happy that he's a working model, I feel like that counts for something.
I feel like the fact that he's a "Rising Star" over there should be a bit more prevalent than the racist minority who do what they usually do. But what do i know. : (

What? Never happened to meThat sucks.
I do remember getting kicked out of resturaunts because they didn't serve foreigners while I was in Seoul
Still had a blast though

Yes.
Prior to Europeans venturing to the New World they traveled south to West Africa. I believe it was the Portuguese that first made this journey. The British were the laggards in the quest to the New World after seeing how rich the Spanish and Portuguese were getting. It was easier for them to enslave Africans as a labor force to develop parts of S. America, the Carribean and N. America.
The white skin fetish that Koreans have isn't because of white people or Western culture. It's been a thing in Asia, at least in Japan and Korea, since the early days when Korea still had a royal family with a King and Japan with geisha.
As for the 5x more racist than Americans, I think they're just more honest about it. I find it extremely hard to believe that only 5.6% of Americans are racist. That's laughable. .
They'll go through what every previously homogeneous western societies are going through. While most will eventually be fine with it, there's always a segment of the population that will double down on prejudice. Though with time, that segment get's less and less relevant.Korea's gonna get FUCKED when mixed race folk start to build up in numbers. People are so unbelievably xenophobic, it's disgusting.
Is you saying we durable? LOL
Staged or not, every time racism in East Asia comes up as a topic, this gif comes to mind.
I love how when people defend this gif they always talk about the woman always. Completely ignoring the guy with the far more extreme reaction.This fucking gif out of context again
She's a fan of the dude so she's shocked/happy to see him.
Does Crystal Kay not count? I'm sure she did some modelling...
For a long time the most common form of slave trade actually involved trading prisoners of war and other people who belonged to other tribes for goods with the local leaders.Didn't the various governments of West Africa have any kind of standing army that would fight back against European invaders trying to steal their citizens?

Hint of you have completely ignore an element of piece for your argument to work it's not a salient argument.

The Europeans and Africans didn't hate each other. They were seen as trading partners.Didn't the various governments of West Africa have any kind of standing army that would fight back against European invaders trying to steal their citizens?
So the whole gif is staged then?What? The dude is making a classic "WHOA" reaction that's staged for the program. Have you ever seen an Asian variety show
Can he even eat spicy food
Yes, there were, however, there were tribal leaders that traded with Europeans for African labor.
I agree with this, but at the same time those celebs are having the 'western' surgery.
Koreans want to look like their celebs who have western surgery.

So Europeans traded for slaves with the local African authorities?
This is very unfortunate and awful, but it is not surprising. I've read a lot of shameful stories about racism in SK, seems to be quite a xenophobic country.
It really makes me sad because I'd love to visit there some day but I don't feel like I ever would now, even if I could afford to.
