      Honestly dating a sri lankan guy is less toxic and better than dating a korean. Even Though she said korea is better i feel like sri lanka is better compared to what she has experienced. At least we could live and walk respectably and peacefully. No one is going to harras us.

      It's true that you've been through a lot but still if we compare srilanka to Korea it's true that srilanka is still a developing country but the life srilankans get to live here while enjoying time with each other, being multicultural, hospitality I think that sort of life is more worthier than being discriminated over skin colour.There is definitely a reason to call our mother land home because that's the only place one will ever feel belonged.

      ​@@basugunja I think you want to say that Koreans are racists who are obsessed with skin color. In fact, Koreans are obsessed with their own clean, bright, and clear skin and are not interested in the skin of other races. This obsession with skin is a beauty standard that has been passed down for hundreds or more than a thousand years. Please do not generalize that all Koreans are racist based on your own interpretation.

And to experience racism as a 10 year old child is scarring. I applaud her for being able to put up with everything and continue to live her life the way she wants and shine with her confidence.

As far as tribal groups within a regional genotype, essentially all Americans are mixed and you dont really notice a difference until they mix with a different regional type, i.e. African, Asian, etc. And even then while im sure they do face discrimination from some bad people who are holdouts, overall its just becoming less of a thing people care about anymore. Its less about who your parents are and more about your economic, education and mannerism standards and where you fit in.

    Koreans are colorist if anyone who's white skinned despite what's his/her nationality is they'll treat them good .

      In Korea, the group that openly exposes racial discrimination is usually the elderly.
      They don't even know the concept of racism.
      And, as she said, there are quite a few white women who work in certain bars.
      It is a hasty judgment to think that white people do not experience difficulties in Korea.
      A foreigner's status is weak anywhere.

    As someone of South Asian descent she should consider moving to Singapore. It is the only developed country in Asia with a sizeable South Asian population (10%). She will face less discrimination there. There are many people of South Asian descent who have prominent positions in society (politicians, leading lawyers, judges, businesspeople) the top sportsperson currently from Singapore is a young lady of Indian descent- Shanti Pereira…There have been several prominent Singaporeans descended from Ceylonese immigrants (both Sinhalese and Tamil)- Two fine examples are S. Rajaratnam & Tharman Shanmugaratnam (both former Deputy Prime Ministers). Tharman is currently running for President of Singapore and is likely to win.
