Make no mistake, friends: Korean people are pretty shallow when it comes to dating outside their race. They are too much “inside the box” to date someone from Japan or China and God forbid, dating a white or black girl/boy. I guest blogged for our friend, Grace from DatingInKorea.com, with my perspective on what a Vietnamese chick should do to pursue one ‘dem racist Korean fellers…

Question/Comment: I stumbled across your site while i was looking at other foreigners in korea blogs and i must give you props on your dating skills. i am vietnamese american and because of what i do, i have to interact with koreans a lot, even though i am in LA. there is this one guy that i extremely like but i have no idea how to flirt with korean guys. i’m afraid if i use my regular ways like i do with the guys here, it might scare them because they’re so shy or make me seem like a big whore because they’re so reserved. i’m heading to korea for my spring break and i will definately have to work with this guy again. how do i peak his interest or how do i even begin to flirt and get him to know that i am interested? thanks in advance and keep warm!

Listen, QTpieViet (which is probably your screenname), you have to learn to lure Korean boys like Grace does, by being yourself. If you scare him away by using your “regular ways”, he’s probably gay and undeserving of your time. Bottom line, 
Korean guys can be extremely racist and you may have no chance if he’s one of those types… but there is hope for you yet, QTpieViet… Korean guys love them some good Vietnamese Pho noodles. I suggest you woo him by asking him to a Pho restaurant. You will win his heart. But all kidding aside, you are probably a great girl and like I said you should not have to change to get some (sterotypically) small in the pants Korean kid.
LOL Jon… blunt as always. Nice response to Lana, but question – why do you think Korean guys are so “racist” in dating? It seems that Korean girls are more likely to date outside their race than guys… is there any logical explanation for this phenomenon?
Lil’ Kim… am I really that blunt? I definitely do not hold back for fear of what people say. Thanks for your comment – and in response to your question, Korean guys are racist because it is engrained, in many of them, that it’s a son’s duty to preserve the family line and marry an acceptable girl… which, to Korean families, is a Korean girl. The reason why some Korean girls go ahead and date outside their race is because other races actually desire asian girls. Korean boys are not so favorable in the eyes of others.,, trust me, I would know.
