I'm a black woman and I've been working in Korea for the past two years, and I was also stationed here for a year in 2001 when I was in the Army. Of course I do get the occasional long stares because I keep my hair mostly in long braids, but I have never experienced anything malicious or blatantly racist. One of my Korean co-workers asked me if she could touch my hair, and I told her of course! She was so sweet and genuinely curious. Racism exists all over the world, so please don't let that ever discourage you from traveling to new places. Korea and it's people are truly amazing.
Are you single😉
Thanks for the comment!

I definitely agree with that. ❤
Good for you , you had a great experience but that sadly is not ot the situation for everyone , majority of Koreans are racist due to ignorance and just hate, I realized that Korean’s who are educated about foreigners and travel a lot are different. Koreans even act different towards darker skinned Koreans. The racism is everywhere Statement is not an excuse for them not to be educated. People need to realize their faults and get educated. Nevertheless some Koreans are so sweet .
I've lived in Korea and Japan for 2 years and yes there are racist in Korea and Japan just like there are racists everywhere else in the world. I'm from the South in the US so I grew up around many racists including some of my relatives. I know what real racism looks like. The difference is in Korea, there aren't any violent organized racists groups (i.e., KKK, Neo-Nazis, etc..) physically trying to harm people like there are in the US, Japan and Europe.
I don't think institutionalized racism exists in Japan.
yeah places that aren’t developed often have racism for ex Korea just got out of poverty recently
Organized hate groups in Japan??!! Really?
@@gametri-eq6lj What are you talking about? I'm from the US and US is one of the most developed countries in the world and it's also one of the most racists countries in the world.
@@zachmiller9189 I meant that in Koreans case it hasn’t been long since they got developed people in the the u.s who are still racist act like it when they feel like they want too and aren’t just ignorant
I had very memorable experience with a grandpa in a train to Nami island. I am from South East Asia country. I travelled there after my dad passed away a week before (my mom told me to still go there because I've bought ticket and she wanted me to cheer up)
I was standing on the train, carrying my backpack. This old man (i thought he was about >75 years old) offered me his seat next to him, but i refused because i thought there would be more older people got in the train on the next station.
So the train kept running and the empty seat next to him had been seated by another grandpa 😁 suddenly, he poke my shoulder and told me to have a seat with his seat, because he would get off in the next station (using body language).
I felt uncomfortable but he said it was okay, so finally i sat there. I thought that grandpa really got off in the next station, but when i looked around, i found out he didn't get off yet, still standing a little bit far from me. He was watching me, too, from where he stood up, so when our eyes met, i helplessly tried to ask him to get his seat back witb body language because i felt guilty, but he tried to convince me that it was okay 😅 he really got off in the next station while waving at me before he departed.
As someone who had her father just passed away a week before, i couldn't feel more touched than that 😢
How sweet this beautiful
@@maxwellpatra4817 yes, it was 🥰
Before, i always heard stigma that korean elderly try to avoid foreigners. I didn't know if i looked like one of them, i do have a smaller eyes than typical South East Asian but my skin is still darker to be East Asian 😂 and i was with my friend to that wore hijab. After that experience, i really realized that you should experience certain things to proof the stigma is correct or not. Maybe i had better experience but I'm thankful for that till now 😁 it really healed a little bit of my sadness after my father passed away ❤️
But I did see that youngsters didn't care enough about priority seat when i took the train in the city. They tried to avoid any eye contact when elderly got on the train. Well, it happened in busy hours though. But i expected them to give priority seat more in that busy hour because the train was crowded and it was so uncomfortable for elder, but still they tend to ignore 😐 and even for woman, they didn't give seat so yeah i think some Korean men are not as gentlemen as what we watch in K-Drama 😅
@@agritodo Jezzz 😆
@@agritodo Korean men don’t give seat to women, unless she is his girlfriend or wife. If a man gives up seat for a woman, that would be a very strange thing in Korea. She may take it as a weird flirting and offended.
Young people are supposed to give up seat for older people, but tbh the young people are also very tired from long hours of work and difficult commute so they just stay their seat. I wonder if you saw young people falling asleep in the train. That happens a lot because everyone is tired. 🥲
I too have experienced older people giving up seats for us when I went around with my white husband. The cultural rule is that young people should give seats to elders, so it’s quite extraordinary, but it did happen several times . Some old people are very sweet and go out of their way to be nice. I heard some foreigners received pocket money as allowance from old people 🤣 Some old people are grumpy and rude to foreigners and young Koreans. We can never expect what kind of old people we may come across 😅
@@yj8641 oh woow, i didn't know before that giving seat to other women except your girlfriend or wife is considered flirting in Korea 😲 thanks for the information 😂
Yeah after i went traveling to another countries, I've seen some cultural difference with mine 😂
Before i thought same Asia countries will held same culture like : elder and lady first. But seems it is not applicable for every country 😂
In my country, it is an act of kindness if you give seat to elders or to give seat to woman (especially pregnant lady) and kids. But in our public transportation we do have special train wagon for ladies and kids.
In other wagons, it's mix so yeah currently we can see people who give seat to women or those who choose not to 😂 but most of it, we always give seat to elderly >60 years old or to women with kids and baby 😁
And somehow my country is very welcoming to foreigners (especially to White and Black people, and also East Asians 😁 ). You'll be surprised because you'll feel like celebrity when you walk in public area 😂
I hope you can/did reassure the first lady that if ANY man is bothering or following you, its okay to say and do whatever is needed to make them stop. And not to feel bad about it, either.
For what I have seen on youtube Korean female youtubers, n Korea it seems like Stalking is a thing. Apparently in order for a women to get a restraining order for someone who's stalking them by calling them non stop. She has to answer the phone for if not it won't be consider stalking 😳
If a foreigner or anyone in sk really defends themselves they’re the ones at fault not the attacker
이게맞지 저건 인종차별이 아님.. 외국인 차별은 안되지만 무조건 받아들일 필요도없다
The "I have a black friend" excuse makes me laugh everytime 😂.
Where was that?
This one makes me laugh too 😂 « See, I have a black friend, so I can’t be racist » 😅
How is this an excuse? A true racist would not have a black friend period.
It’s a classic
The funny and sad thing about is that Koreans perceive themselves as white ... which of course they definitely are not.
인종차별 이라는게 그냥 모호한거임 그냥 쳐다봤는데도 인종차별이라고 느끼는 사람이 있고 안 쳐다봤다고 인종차별이라고 느끼는 사람도 있음
예를 들면 " 나를 동물원 원숭이를 보듯이 모두 다 쳐다봤다" 혹은 반대로 " 마치 나를 투명인간 취급 하듯이 쳐다보지도 않았다"
이런 경우들이 있지 심각한 인종 혐오범죄 단체가 나와서 서로 죽고 죽이는게 아닌이상 인종차별으로 그만 떠들어라 오히려 전혀 무관한 사람들만
서로 불편해진다 시간이 차차 해결해주겠찌
It's been improving steadily over the last decade. If anything I'm surprised that Korea isn't more racist with how homogenous it is. The most annoying thing I found in Korea has been systemic racism as the bureaucracy is slow to adapt to foreigners.
That’s not racism, but bureaucracy. Some organizations take a long time to change and the foreign population is very new in Korea.
It’s not systematic racism. It’s bureaucracy or lack of administrative experience.
I’m Korean born and raised, but I’m an American citizen now. Since I came back to Korea, I have a lot of problems with the Korean government offices, banks, phone companies, utility companies, schools, etc. I see a lot of foreigners on street in my neighborhood, which is not a foreigners’ district, so I had assumed, since Korea has very efficient administrations, it would be efficient for me too. But NOooooo 😅.
My visa renewal took a long time; my insurance got suspended, and I lost a lot of money; I almost lost power because of electricity bill problem ….. 😂
I have to sit with the banker for at least two hours every time when I go to the banks because they don’t know how to take care of foreigner’s specific business and spend hours calling other specialists to figure out 😂 I even feel bad for them because they struggle so much every time 😂
American government administration is slow and terrible too, but it’s bad for everyone. Korean administration is bad for foreigners because theydon't have much administrative experience and didn't create clear manual yet. I think it will take more time for them to learn and adjust too.
My bankers are working faster now, and since we had so many long meetings, I'm friends with bankers now 😂
Very well said
나는 한국에서 외국인한테 인종차별 당했다 ㅋㅋㅋㅋ한국인인데 ㅋㅋ
In 2023 Korea cannot use the “we’re a homogenous country so….” Too many different cultures are exposed and used in Korea and some are used and saturated in things (music, mannerism, verbiage, etc) Also the word “foreigner” is VERY vague. Each type of foreigner is treated different in Korea. Also there or preferences in Korea.
Exactly!!! They don’t use that “ we are a homogenous country so…” when they knew how to treat white people right who wasn’t even Korean but not others who are a POC. I’m sick of hearing that excuse for last 16years, I understand if it was 2000 but not 2023, sorry, young people have been exposed to TV, social media and tourists, that doesn’t matters if you don’t have foreign friend but just be nice.
@@monsterrr1999 You read my mind. So tired of this lame excuse of homogenous country. Technology advanced but don’t give a s*it about opening themselves towards other cultures.
Most of the Koreans admire white people meanwhile look down on dark skin.
Filipinos, Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesians are so welcoming and don’t have this arrogant attitude.
I would say compared to other European and NA countries, SK is relatively homogeneous in terms of being monoethnic and monocultural. It has been exposed to more foreign cultures for sure, and it has more foreigners living and working in it than ever bf, and this will slowly change their attitudes toward non-Koreans. There will be growing pains just like here in Canada and the US.
I get your point but they are fkn homogeneous🥲
@@roar5853There is nothing wrong with that. They chose to stay isolated for a period of time because of other countries trying to invade them. It is better than being diverse due to slavery or colonization.
I live in Sweden permanently, Filipino-born and takes buses at all time. The locals avoid sitting with foreigners on the bus. The elderlies here are often very prejudistic of immigrants. But let me tell you that many childless couples here adopts Korean babies.
This was a great episode 👏🏽
0:31 yes some people avoid foreigners because they are not confident of their English skill, they can be very anxious about passerby hearing them speak English and get laugh at if they pronounced words wrong or their grammar was incorrect.
Short answer - of course they do. When practically 100% of people look like each other and you have little contact with others for centuries - you tend to have an elevated sense of your superiority.
Very well said! I had a classmate who just immigrated to America back then and said that people with blond hair was strange to him.
Nazis thought the same , race superiority. It didn't ended up well for them..
Ya go to Africa and they think differently. Its all abt where you are. In India the Northeast Indians who look chinese are despised.
@@Sunshine-zi4nq You don't know kuch about Africa. Sub-Saharan Africa has dozens of ethnic groups with different languages and customs living in close proximity. Diversity and multiple cultures are the norm there.
@@vmoses1979 my point is wherever you go people have different perceptions of what is " attractive". FYI I have heard Africans make comments abt Asian eyes. Westerners too. To them Oriental eyes ( East Asian) are unattractive. Its ok, we all have our own perceptions abt Beauty but just treat everyone with respect.
DO NOT JUDGE Koreans by comments here. if you have to, judge them by interacting them in person.
Yeah I've watched other videos and follow other people and found out some are nice some are not which is in every country
The people interviewed interacted with Koreans, I suppose...
I’ve interacted with Koreans and they are racists especially to South East Asian. This is more evident especially now that Korea is becoming famous via Kpop / Kdrama with its soft power and many of its citizens are now having this superiority complex feeling.
@@kamalaroyale790한국인들은 같은 한국인들에게 조차도 외모 학력 재산 정도에 따라서 차별하는나라입니다 경제는 발달했지만 국민의식수준은 아직 멀었다
@@kamalaroyale790 same goes for me on my end, I've faced middle east, south east Asians, they were very rude and careless. But I do not judge it as the country is racist or what ever. It's really, just matter of people. There are good people and bad people in every country. I hope you face some good koreans one day that you get away with these negativity. Negativity only create bigger negativity just like you faced racism from them that you have hate on them.
It’s interesting how Koreans are constantly being criticized and stereotyped as if racism and xenophobia isn’t endemic in every single country around the world. There is almost a gleeful quality to demonizing Korean people, especially by certain insecure people who come from countries where colorism and xenophobia are deeply embedded in their own cultures.
Nice try gas lighting those who attempt to shine a light on the dire state of Korea's race relations.
@@sara.cbc92you prove my point
@@mempto how have I proved your point? Do elaborate.
Yup. I have never seen such vicious fandom in any country. Even fans of American and Japanese cultures, which are more famous than Korean ones, are not this distorted.
Don't get me wrong. I am the one arguing ignorant Korean people in this comment section. But still I don't like the CROWD surrounding them.
But Korea is one of the various countries prominently known for being extremely colorist and that leads to greater race issues as well… don’t be oblivious
Maybe the older Koreans who haven’t been abroad or exposed to different cultures would, but the younger Koreans seem very accepting of foreigners and different cultures. Nowadays you see so many Koreans dating and marrying outside of their race and going abroad experiencing and embracing so many different cultures. It seems most of South Korea has really embraced diversity now.
That’s not true for young Koreans. I have seen racist young Koreans too
@@monsterrr1999Yes and it definitely depends on the person. I had a classmate that was a bit open to friendship but when it came to marriage, she strictly only wanted Koreans. She returned to Korea and married a Korean guy and has 2 kids now.
Many young Koreans are racist too but overall, they are a bit better than older Koreans.
@@TrinhNguyen-sh4fj I am not talking about relationships but friendships or just meeting people in general. They tends to know how to treat white people right though.
Not so much.
@@monsterrr1999yes it depends on your skin color. The darker you are the more potential discrimination. This even goes for south/southeast Asians not just black
Great discussion. I like the honest response of your guest. Good interview
I like the hairstyle Jerry 😊
I've experienced a lot of kindness and acceptance since my family moved to South Korea earlier this year. And learning the language has helped to an extent. Korea feels like home, especially for my kids. Yes, the bus experience happens often, but I sit with Koreans when I get a chance. I loved the honesty of every speaker. Nothing is black and white. People are different, and they have different reasons for how they treat other people. I love being in South Korea. Another great one, @KExplorer. 🎉🎉
There's no racism, If you're beautiful, High knowledge, and rich
Haha this is true😢

Keep up the good work jerry This is a topic that definitely needs to be discuss

There were no excuses.
@@jiminswriter4209 they excuses like : they just need get to know the "foreigner" obviously if you not white or european you are a threat and needed to "get to know "
@@kimkhoitruong5991 There is no excuse for rudeness, but people aren’t going to be as friendly to those they are less familiar with.
I would argue that the title of this video is itself racist. A less horrible title would have been “does racism exist in Korea?” The whole all Koreans are racist is a hateful, ignorant headline that attracts the worst people to lie or embellish whatever perceived slights they either actually encountered or are just making up.
Cry harder lol
This youtuber hates korea for some reason. That is why he puts titles like that to attract people with same logics.
During covid I've seen these signs in shops, "no Chinese people allowed" "no foreigners allowed".
no chinese allowed sign is understandable .. because the problem that time was the CCP refusing to share data about the gravity of covid problem in china. they did not let other countries to help study the virus and contain it..but instead, they even made it secret.... thats why people from other countries are hesitant to accept chinese tourists due to that.. it has nothing to do with racism.....
As if it didn't happened in other countries 😂
@@roar5853 never claimed that not to be in the case in other parts of the world. Just stating what I've witnessed in Korea
I’ve seen tons of news that asians were beaten to death in the US during covid era
What do you think about that Koreans were banned in China during Covid even if it is from China...

해외경험이 거의 없는 사람들은 인종차별하는 것 같아요. 당연히 그것도 사람 나름이지만요. 저는 캐나다랑 호주에서 살면서 언어차별과 인종차별을 당해봐서 차별 당하는 사람들이 얼마나 화가 날지 이해합니다. 한국 돌아와서 한국에 사는 외국인들의 마음을 더 이해하게 되었어요. 한국에도 분명 인종차별이 있고 저는 해외에서 당했던 사람으로써 그런 사람들을 너무 싫어합니다. 저는 그래서 어느나라에서 왔건 잘 사던 못 살던 상관없이 잘 해주려는게 있는 것 같아요. 차별은 차별을 낳는 것 같은데 어느나라던 차별은 존재하지만 배운 사람들은 차별하지 않는다는 것이 팩트. 앞으로 다름의 아름다움을 아는 대한민국이 되기를 바랍니다.
Exactly what i said to some Koreans here , the nice Korean’s i met were those who either travel overseas or have education on how to treat foreigners. Well said
여기보면 외국인들 증언으로는 노인들이 오히려 친절하다는데, 인터뷰하는 사람이나, 댓글 다는 사람들이나 나는 아니고 나보다 늙은 사람들이라고 탓을 하니 한국인 남탓 종특은 어디 안가네요. 답이 없다

I have wanted to travel to Korea for so long and I've been terrified of the thought of sticking out like a sore thumb, stares or discrimination 😔 this was a good insightful video.
Why would you fund racism by going to Korea?
Trust your gut feeling
Watch the interviews with black people actually living in Korea. I found that a lot of people who criticize racism and colorism never even visited Korea. It's not worse than any other countries. If you survive in the US, you are fine in Korea. You will be treated nicely by most people. They may be afraid of you and avoid you though because they are afraid of speaking English😅
Oh, by the way, they will stare at you 🥲 they are not familiar with black people or foreigners, so especially old people and children will stare at you, out of curiosity. If you can smile at them and say hi, they may sum up the courage to talk to you too. I don't know if you want to talk to locals. If you are shy, you may not like the stares, but extrovert foreigners use that as opportunity to talk 😅
There's no racists in your country? @@sara.cbc92
I was in KOrea for 12 years and have traveled 80 countries. Racism in Korea is very high. I was attacked by three Korean men and two of them went to jail. Koreans refused to believe it even when I showed the court papers. The newspaper refused to cover the story.
As someone of Southeast Asian background, I'm sick and tired of Korean people admitting on camera that Americans, Europeans, or white people in general are more accepted than people of other nationalities or skin colors. Do they seriously not realize how discriminatory and unfair that is, and dare I say immature? Imagine Korean people experiencing that for themselves anywhere. When the shoe is on the other foot, now suddenly they're the ones complaining about how negatively they're treated. If you want respect, you must earn it, but this mindset is not the way, especially if they are the ones living abroad.
Many Korean people are living in the Philippines (among many other foreigners) as RUclipsrs and they have admitted to the friendliness and hospitality of the locals. Imagine that changing one day because this is what they ACTUALLY think of us...as tempting as it is to give them a taste of their own medicine, we're better than that
I felt your message brother! We must collectively come up with a culture of dealing with these kind of fake people. I don’t have the answer just yet, but I know we can collectively come up with an answer together as long as we all can begin to see that we are all being treated differently for literally NOT being “white”.
@@user-qo7bu5fx2x I agree with your overall point that we ALL must change. We ALL must be better Men and Women and treating OTHER Men and Women like Men and Women…..race is foolishness
Would you prefer that they lied about it? White people being treated better than other ethnicities in Korea is just straight up factual. The first step in changing something like this is Koreans admitting the issue exists, and now you're upset about that admission???
@@user-qo7bu5fx2xi understand your point but are the rumors really lies ? Koreans themselves admit that most of them go through plastic surgery because of the society there. And we see all the white washing they do with k-pop artists for example, just because it’s “good” to be pale as a sign of purity and richness there.
As a black person that lives in SE Asia and travels to all of these countries on a regular basis. I will say that East Asians and whites are treated very well here, but everyone else not so much. This isn't an issue isolated to Koreans. A lot of SE Asians do the same thing, they just have prejudices towards different people. This is an issue all across Asia.
Younger koreans are racist too. I've stayed in korea for several months, and many times I was treated as an idiot by people my age, whether it was in school or in shops. I could also 100% feel when koreans felt uncomfortable having to sit next to me in the bus (not everyone, but this is definitely something you can feel).
My friends who travelled there also experienced racism by other young people in their 20s or 30s.
Sure Jan
Lol the younger ones are extremely racist too! You have very few that are kind and loving towards all human beings. Majority of the time they only want to relate with POC to party and experience entertainment. They don’t consider you to be anything other than a good time. It’s very sad.
@@niwu5218but they aren’t “white” so they are also POC…..therefore we call it self hatred?
@@camfreed9829 the definition of "white " is different in the world, not to mention that asians like koreans have obsesion with being white pale skinned and some of them are white pale skinned natural,so classifying as POC is kinda of weird,for them a POC is somebody like a thai person or and indian because most of them have dark brown skin.

The Korean guy said he called his black friend in school, a black, older brother. 😅😅😅. The word he used for black means "DIRT."
I’ve been to Seoul recently and some old ladies pulled their masks up when they saw me. I’m American but of Chinese descent so maybe they thought I was a COVID threat 😅😅. I also have a bald head so maybe people thought I was U.S. military and tried to avoid me. But I had some friendly experiences with old men for some reason. One time someone got up from their seat on the metro when they reached their stop. I was standing next to it but did not sit down and let the old man take it instead. When he got off at his stop he thanked me and offered me the seat. Another time, I went to JJimjilbang and an older man asked me to help take his bandaids off on his back from acupuncture I assume. He was also nice and thanked me.
I (Korean) probably could not tell if you are Chinese or Korean. The grandmas, I believe, could not tell it either, unless they heard you speak Chinese.
@jeanger8733 hmm maybe they knew i was American then. Actually i went into a Daiso and one of the ladies working there seemed annoyed that i couldnt speak Korean. Maybe they thought i was gyopo.

The Filipino Squid Game actor Player 276. Said in an interview on AsiaBoss that he experienced racism in the bus.
I also experienced racism in the Philippines as well.

You mean the Indian actor Ali cuz there wasn’t a Filipino actor in squid games
@ayannagrant6318 I just googled. Player 276 was Filipino. I didnt notice him, although I knew Ali was from India.

Regarding the story of the US immigration office. I’m not going to discredit her but that’s a universal experience. For some reason anyone who works for the DMV and immigration are just the most put out/ rude people there are. I think most Americans will agree . Idk if its just because they deal with unprepared ppl, long hours or argumentative people. I dread going into the DMV for this reason alone.
The DMV and the immigration officers in the US I met were not rude, luckily for me, but it took too much time! It seems that They don’t have enough officers so it delays the process too much! I requested a simple document to the US immigration office, and I had to pay $500 and had to wait for a year to get the document! I got the same kind of document from the Korean government in 10min. And paid $1.
For me, Korean government and immigration officers were nice, but it seems each officer wants different things, and sometimes their requirements don’t make sense. It seems they don’t have much experience yet and still have to work on developing the manual. It's very confusing for me (and they are confused) and sometimes costly 😭
@@yj8641 yeah both immigrations and the dmv are an absolute headache to deal with. On top of most ppl being rude they can’t agree on what you need and get mad if you don’t have everything.

Discrimination is not exclusively racial, as we know a lot of times ha stop do with money, rich or poor.. No matter the color, no matter the country. So if you discriminate or if you are racist are different questions
Why is there so many similarities between Japan and S.Korea when it comes to the treatment of foreigners? It's actually quite different in China.
Yes, yes they are.

Are there Koreans that are racist and discriminate on that basis? Certainly. Just as there are Koreans who aren't and don't. Korea, not unlike Japan, China, India and many other places in Asia, has a storied history with "colorism" and glorifying and romanticizing lighter, paler skin and features while shunning darker skin and features. Much of the descrimination black American people or darker skinned people from places like Cambodia, Sri Lanka or African countries have experienced in those countries can often be traced to inhibitions and beliefs linked to colorism.
Just wanted to give some background context to why Koreans like white people. America 🇺🇸 came and saved S.Korea from N.Korea during the Battle of Incheon in the Korean War. That key battle, if not won by General MacArthur and Americans (who were mostly white back in the 50s), would’ve lost S.Korea and made the entire country communist. So S.Koreans have naturally favored Westerners/white people.
The people saying there isn't discrimination and racism from koreans either pretend they don't know infront of the camera or they really don't know... Interesting.
yes, there is. place like japan and korea, where there's mostly just koreans and japanese. as country don't grow up with foriegners. still got lots of stereotype about other race peoples and stuff, for sure. or at least, korean has strong identity as a 'korean' it's not about they hate forgiener, it's just they have strong configurations so discrimination comes naturally after.
I'm italian living in Korea right now and this is my opinion, Koreans are really afraid about foreigner for example, when i seat in the bus N-O-B-A-D-Y seat near me and sometimes if they seat near me they say sorry to me... sorry for what?? Just seat and take a rest why sorry? Sorry because you are take a seat near me respect than korean? Really i don't understand, i'm normale human, even young students sometimes when the bus is full they don't seat near me and i heard conversation like (야 go to seat) and friend reply (no no near foreigner no) because yes i speak korean so i understand... really sad... in Korea is the truth even you speak korean and you try to do the best in the society you will never be inside the society is the truth, in every case i love south korea, i love the food and the culture😊
Just curious. Would a Korean living in Italy be included in Italian society?
@@yo2trader539 of course yes! Maybe many times you can find the person say to u "nihao" or just are u from china? And this can be a little bit disrespectfull of course, but many italian they really doesn't know almost anything about asian country that's why they act like this (of course this is not a exscuse for act like this!) , me too i really hate this kind of things because is totally a ignorance bheavior.
Oh sorry to hear that. but as a korean I assume that they did it because they were afraid of the situation you would talk to them in english. Most of koreans are scared of speaking english with foreigners.

Jerry... you showing them how it's done!!
this topic will be endless. everyone got different experienced
we cannot judge all of them are racist. if they do to you, you just ignore them
I think one should differentiate between experiencing superficial racism like being assumed to be Chinese or getting some low level racist remarks thrown your way vs systemic racism. Yeah, it doesn't make you feel good to be the target of racism - and I've had that so much that it just rolls off my back now - but to have less rights, to have a glass ceiling, to actually be treated as second class citizen with less legal rights is a completely different issue.
So while I feel for Koreans traveling abroad who experienced some racism, I would encourage them to explore how SK discriminates against foreigners on a systemic level; especially those from SEA who are brought into to do unskilled labour. They aren't refugees nor are they illegals. They fulfill an important part of Korea's economy.
What systemic racism do Southeast Asians face? I would not say there is much, but more individual racism.
@@jiminswriter4209 username checks out.
@@jiminswriter4209 I would agree that individual racism is more common. However, if the individual racism becomes the norm and tolerated or even encouraged, the line between individual and societal racism becomes blurred.
Systemic racism doesn't necessarily have to do with actively withholding rights for foreigners. It could be as simple as not persecuting companies or institutions for discriminating against non-Koreans.
Korean media has been steadily reporting cases of foreign labourers being paid lower than minimum wage, harsh and unsafe work environment, wage being withheld as a bargaining chip, passports being withheld, etc. Even if these are all illegal actions, leading to little or no consequences for perpetrators amounts to a systemic apathy.
I feel you, you are right. During the pandemic most Asians were discriminated in the US. There are idiots and haters everywhere. Though in my opinion the US is not a racist country, far from that. But Europe is different, they 're pretty racist, even in poor countries like Spain and Italy
@@jiminswriter4209a lot
Being homogenous or ignorant is an excuse for racism. Korea is no longer a hermit country stuck in the 18th century. They pride themselves in being a globalized and advanced society when the opposite is true. Koreans have access to resources, free media that China doesn't, yet even the Chinese come across as less racist. Koreans need to be held accountable for their actions.
This is true, but I still think white people are more racist lol more specifically White Americans.

Well, I’m ahjumma so I’m fearless 😅 I don’t avoid sitting next to foreigners because I lived in the US for long time and foreigners are familiar to me. On the other hand, I don’t sit next to older Korean men. It’s just uncomfortable. I don’t know why 😅. I don’t hate men 😂.
So I understand when Koreans avoid sitting next to foreigners, or avoid being near foreigners. It’s just uncomfortable to them because they are not familiar with different people. It’s kind of Korean way of shyness, not hatred or racism.
On the other hand, some old Koreans give seats to foreigners. Koreans’ behavior to foreigners are quite unpredictable and unreasonable. They can be cold or rude, or super friendly, depending on the situation and the individuals. A lot of uncomfortable situations for foreign tourists are due to erratic behaviors of Koreans around unfamiliar people, not racism.
Yes there is racism or discrimination towards foreign labor workers in Korea 😢
Stop placing blame on old Korean people. The reason why Koreans do not sit next to foreigners. Because they don't want to. Older Koreans have a designated area where they sit normally. I found the older Koreans to be fairly open-minded. The younger people were weird acting. Be honest.
They are the same. Equally racist.
As Koreans, Koreans are very interested in social status, so they often discriminate among fellow Koreans based on educational background, wealth, etc. So, when dealing with foreigners, since there is not enough information to understand the background of the foreigner, it seems that they discriminate by finding out how well the foreigner's country is (per capita GDP, etc.)... The reason white people are treated well is because white people mainly live in developed countries. I think so. I think it is a bit different from discriminating based on race. However, this is also clear discrimination and many Koreans, including me, are alert to this and I think it is a problem that many people need to solve. It is true that this discrimination is especially severe among the elderly and is virtually disappearing among the younger generation. I believe it will continue to improve in the future. ㅠㅠ
They discriminate only South East Asia(except Singapore) especially if u look SEA
I am from SEA and has Korean lover.. I know...
Guys remember if it’s foreigners it can be anyone from even other Asian countries. Not just blacks and whites
The answer is yes. That’s the truth. However as a black American I would go so far as to say Americans and especially Europeans are far more so than Koreans.
Just curios, where in Europe you felt you were discriminated against. And how exactly were you discriminated against as a black American.
Korean black face shows ❕💡
I would love to know how Koreans feels about Puerto Ricans 😖❤️ I love Koreans so much I love there culture, food, music and fashion. My dream is to visit Korea at least once so that I can gain more knowledge and experience.
Yes. There are Korean government policies that discriminate against foreigners, especially children and babies. Long term permanent residents that have children born in South Korea under Korean law can not have Korean citizenship, the children or parents are not entitled to any government programs. Another example, Citibank took over a Korean bank (KorAm Bank) and was still operating under the lending policies of the Korean bank. Koram bank lending policy at the time was that loans could only be given to those of the Korean race. Citizenship was irrelevant, had to be of the Korean race.
Korea is for Koreans and if they don't like you, for whatever reason, you have no right to criticize.
Wow! They are putting the blame solely on the older generation. Older Koreans can be incredibly racist and xenophobic, but so can the younger generation. Living in Korea, you will meet good and bad people regardless of the generation. I just wish some would just mind their own business and stop harassing foreigners who are just existing.
Lol, right. And guess if the old Korean folks were interviewed they'd put the blame on the youth. That's Korea for you 😂
The apple really doesn't fall far from the tree I guess
It is easy to blame others, but hard to have self reflection. I guess when people are bored, they invent something to fight for. As I was gowing up there was no 'official' racism issue, bc 99% of the population was Korean. I barely would run into people from other countries. People invented something to fight against one another. Like blaming the oppisite gender, or blaming upper or down gernerations. People will be always that way. Or vegan or non Vegan

When I was in highschool, I had a Korean friend. We had a new Indian classmate and our homeroom teacher tasked us to show her around. The 3 of us chatted and she left for another class. My Korean friend turned to me and said, "hey, do you notice these people have a certain foul stench?". I was shocked. It was another side of her I never expected, as she was a straight A student. She was giggling and meant every word. Since then I met hundreds of Koreans who were far more racist.

we learned from history to not trust other races because they take advantage(japan ocupation,korean war), therefore many older generations understand this because of the past, so the suspicion is there, the new generations are more open because they cannot relate to the past due to american influence, interent, society etc. this new generation is evolving to compete w other societies because of that. Many older koreans do discriminate, younger gens dont. is it right? no. how can it be fixed? hard question to answer.
Black people treat Asian people differently because I been through racism working with black people. I’m not saying all but some of them treated me badly.
Was cracking jackie chan!!!!
I don’t think it’s fair to just think Koreans are racist. They most likely just not used to having foreigners in their country. Some don’t want change and some just curious. A lot of other group in Middle East and religious groups can be very racist as not having inclusion. So we live in a racist world. I don’t think racism is a thing in the America and they definitely moved forward of not being racist. Europe, Asia, and Middle East not so much in progress.
Nah, majority of them are racists. And I've met thousands of Koreans.

Koreans care so much about social status that is why. Their politeness level or respect level is based on how high you are in society. For me that's just arrogant, knowing they were one of the poorest countries in Asia in the 50's. Without the help of the US or Western countries, and some SEA countries including the Philippines who sent soldiers during the Korean War, SK could be part of China or North Korea today. So this is just one bad side of Koreans.
they cant distinguish racism and discrimination or hatred.
Don't come closer to me because... I cannot speak English!

Koreans always get treated like a rare species, stereotyped, analysed and criticised on social media for everything. I feel like no other country or race gets treated like this. Koreans always get randomly street interviewed and its such a strange concept to me.
They also get objectified, idealised and glorified a lot. I find they also get lusted after a lot too 😂. I blame this on how they represent themselves on Hallyu and how everybody outside Korea believes that to be how they really are. Kpop and kdrama is usually a big factor in people's first exposure to South Korea.

AS A FILIPINO WHOVE BEEN HATING KOREANS for 13YEARs.. i knew already this is the case.. many koreans are very racist towards filipinos.. my first encounter happened 13years ago.. year 2010.. i was just 14years old that time .. that happened here in cebu.. when a rich korean just bought a 3storey building from a filipino-canadian who is planning to migrate back to canada.. the deal included the spa, the restaurant, and the salon and the gym that was owned by the building ownwer himself. the top floor of that building serves as a motel with 40rooms... but unfortunately, the new korean owner abusing his filipino workers by giving them late payroll. and cutting off the benefits that was set by the first owner for his filipino employees. for example, if one family members of his employee died, there is a burial assistnace worth 15k. he also cut the free lunch benefits ,, his reason was, he is not yet making money.. but wyhen the employees started complaining about it.. they all kicked them out from the company after working for several years.without seperation fee. how did i know it? because my mom was th operations manager for that building for 5years.. they reported it to DOLE or department of labor and fortuantely, the law sided with them and urged the new owner to give them seperation fee. and the korean owner complied..

Asia is a single race, so there's no racism. It's just that they refuse to interact because they're different languages, different cultures, and lower. It's not discrimination that originated from Western slavery.
I've been in Korea for 4 years and I haven't experienced the "Koreans don't want to sit next to you because you're a foreigner" situation yet. Maybe because I'm white, so as they said, I don't face as much backlash as people from South East Asia or other more melaninated ethnicities. Could it also be a size issue? Seats are quite narrow in Seoul and I have seen muscular foreigners not having anyone sit next to them (including me) because I didn't want to be squeezed. Or a smell issue? On several occasions, I had to move seats to escape some foreign guys who seemed to have emptied a can of deodorant on to their armpits.
The discrimination I mostly encounter is administrative. A lot of things are forbidden for foreigners. Discriminating on the basis of ethnicity or nationality in the workplace is also not illegal in Korea. I love my job but my workplace explicitly states in black and white that foreigners will not be paid for some tasks while Koreans will.
I did have racist encounters apart from that but they are not the majority.
I'm white and the first time it happened to me was when I was omw to my hotel from the airport 😢 the train was full but no one sat on my row. A guy walked in, was about to sit down until we made eye contact, he did a 45 degree turn and walked away. I thought it was so sad but damn funny at the same time
I find that everyone he interview was not being 100 % true full. The reason they give for why they don’t sit by foreigner is just nonsense to me . Because sitting by someone on a bus or train is just that sitting u a not interacting with the person. They use the fact that they are afraid because they don’t speak English as an excuse for to long now. Let just call it what it is racism and saying it a Homogeneous country as a excuse it old now. Young Korean educated ur parents because they would like u to travel out to other countries and what they do to foreigners that come to ur country happen to u.
I disagree 100% with you mate. Many koreans or asians in general really are afraid of speaking english. They know how they sound and are made fun of, they even have a joke saying the only people that are worse than them in english are the Japanese. And factually they are a homogenous country as of 2023 with no real life exposure to any other culture other than few glimpse of "foreigners" on special tv programs and youtube, most never grew up with kids of other culture growing up in korea. But hey, go ahead and believe that most koreans just hate foreigners because of their skin colour
Koreans don't like to hear both Koreans and foreigners speak English to them. Ironically, some foreigners in Korea are also afraid to speak Korean to them because their Korean language skills are very low. If they use English, it will create potential problems, but at the same time speaking broken Korean will also create another problems. 😅
Well it may have been 100% homogeneous country years ago but in 2023 it is not anymore more. There a many other countries that they language is not English. But that do not treat foreigners in that manner. U are making excuses for people with bad behavior towards others because they have never traveled out of there country?Korean is a high tech and they can learn if they want to from internet. But most of all I am not making excuses for adults who should have a moral compass and know that we a all human and u treat people the way u want to be treated it’s not hard.

As a Korean, let me clarify something. 10-20 years ago, when media and the internet were not as developed, Koreans did not have many opportunities to encounter foreigners. So it wasn't just Black people, but foreigners in general were seen as fascinating. It wasn't discrimination; we simply lacked information about these cultures and hence approached them with caution. Black people were no exception. Now, in an era where the whole world is at our fingertips through our phones and we can access all kinds of information, whether Black or anyone else, they're just like anyone else to us - familiar and human. If Black individuals felt discriminated against, I believe it's because they initially put up an invisible defensive wall against us. So, we perceived them as being cautious. If you're a foreigner working in Korea, it's essential for you to be open-minded and approachable. Only then can we genuinely respect and work together. I can't speak for other countries, but at least that's how it is in mine.
Oh, actually this is a lie. During the early 80s and 90s thousands of Koreans migrated to neighboring Japan, often as illegal immigrants or become Zainichis. They commit some of the worst crimes in Japan often using Japanese names. This is the interaction of Koreans with the outside world. So foreigners' first contact with Koreans is met with crimes.
@@sara.cbc92 It's unfair to judge the entire Korean community based on the fact that some Koreans who migrated to Japan in the 80s and 90s were involved in illegal activities. Like any group, there are law-abiding individuals and those who are not, and it's inappropriate to consider the actions of a few as representative of the entire group. The historical relationship between Korea and Japan is complex, and the stories of immigrants are influenced by a variety of historical, social, and economic factors. The challenges and difficulties within the immigrant community reflect the complexity of their situations and cannot be simply attributed to crime. The behavior of individuals should be limited to those individuals, and judging the entire group based on those actions is unfair. Even if there were crimes within the Korean immigrant community, this does not reflect the characteristics or values of the entire group. Society and culture evolve and change with time. Concluding past events from a current perspective might overlook the current societal changes and growth. It's important to seek a balanced understanding considering various social and historical contexts.
