What is the point of your post? No vi nada de importancia, o que tenga sentido. Anyway, caballo, welcome to DT. You got to come better than that. What does Hooker Hill, Itaewon supposed to mean to a Quisqueyano? The only Koreans I've ever known are the ones that used to own Fish stores, Dry Cleaners, Laudromats, and Fruit Stands in New York; and frankly I have nothing but a bad taste in my mouth from them. As far as I'm concerned they can keep their "Kimchl". Kamche Hamnida! Edited on 3/14/2012 10:41 AM by Guarocuya. ![]() ![]() |

The content has low entertainment value and does nothing for the intellect. However, a reference is made to the author: "Jose Abreu is a Dominican writer from the South Bronx. He studied Latin American studies at Yale and thereafter taught in Korea for two years. He currently works as a freelance writer in Andalucia, Spain ." I still don't get and can make the connection. Perhaps because I did not graduate from Yale? Would that have anything to do with it? Edited on 3/14/2012 2:15 PM by guillermone. |

Like they say it's not where you from that counts; Neither does it matter where you graduate from. But, some folks live off that commercial consumerism; where your worth is what you acquire, trophies, medals, diplomas, etc. To each his own. But, I also recognize that in the greater Korean society there are plenty of seedy characters like pimps, whores, drug dealers, gamblers, stone killers, etc. Not all are busy-beaver capitalists like the ones that own every other store in Manhattan. That's the only aspect of this blog I picked-up; Though back a few years ago I lived in Jackson Heights, and saw a few Korean hang-outs... lots lowlifes, there. ![]() ![]() |

That's the only aspect of this blog I picked-up; Though back a few years ago I lived in Jackson Heights, and saw a few Korean hang-outs... lots lowlifes, there. My personal experience and interaction with Koreans have not been exactly the best. They are not the most friendliest bunch, in fact their modus operandi seems to be lacking in pro-customer service. Their treatment of people is nasty, rude and arrogant. Kind of reminds me a lot of how they do things in Miami. I remember once how a Hispanic patron went to buy some vegetables at a produce market in Mt Vernon, NY The customer jokingly referred to and greeted the store owner or manager, who ever he was and called him "chino" by which he responded yelling, "I no Fxxxking Chinese, I Korean...............!!! OK...............! Oh my God.....Man.........talk about being tactful. How do I know it is a Korean store. Well I really cant be 100% sure. And I know its hard to tell the difference among Asians, but after that one and similar incidents, I am afraid to Fxxking ask. Edited on 3/14/2012 3:32 PM by guillermone. |

OK...............! Oh my God.....Man.........talk about being tactful. The customer just dropped everything she had in her hands, was so damn embarrased and just simply walked out. I followed right after her. I was not about to spend my hard earn cash on anyone who did not appreciate customers and treat them appropriately. Ever since then, would no longer patronize any Korean stores after seeing similar behavior repeated. How do I know it is a Korean store. Well I really cant be 100% sure. And I know its hard to tell the difference among Asians, but after that one and similar incidents, I am afraid to Fxxking ask. I know exactly what you are saying. That's pretty much the same impression I've got of them. It seems to me ---- they look down on most Hispanics and Blacks in general. I believe it's a superiority complex that they have. *They come here and get a loan from Sun Yung Moon (Unification Church), open up a business and think the whole world should be like them. If you don't have a BODEGUERO-mentality? you're no good in their opinion. Now what's funny is that same Korean shopkeeper sees a white person enter their store, and they greet them politely: And say things like - Good morning, Sir. How are you today?..... I've seen this so many times that it seems like my experience with them is basically their M.O., as you stated. Por mi, que se jodan! You see what happens when you fight wars for ingrates? They come to your country, your hemisphere and think they are better then you. Que cajones? ![]() ![]() |

What is this a pattern? A pattern of Mass Murder? ![]() I Quote: Oikos University, the private college in Oakland, Calif., where authorities say an expelled student methodically gunned down seven people, caters to a fast-growing target market: Korean-American Christians. One L. Goh, 43, a South Korean national, had been a nursing student at Oikos. Oakland police do not have a precise motive yet, but they say the alleged gunman was upset with his former school, where he apparently had been teased over his poor English. He went hunting for a female administrator at the school on Monday and then opened fire on others when he couldn’t find her, according to police. Oikos University shooting: Private Christian school catered to Koreans http://usnews.msnbc.msn.com/_news/2012/04/03/11003360-oikos-university-shooting-private-christian-school-catered-to-koreans II ![]() Cho Seung-Hui, who was identified today as the gunman who killed 32 people at Virginia Tech before killing himself, lived a quiet life with his family in a tranquil suburb of Washington before going off to college, where classmates saw increasingly dark warnings about his personality. Cho Seung-Hui In Centreville, Mr. Cho’s family lived in a small, two-level townhouse in an upper-middle-class development. Their postman, Rod Wells, said the family was “very quiet, very polite.” “They always had a smile on their face,” he said. “I know they are a nice family. They have been very good to me.” Mr. Cho, 23, moved to the United States from South Korea with his family in 1992, according to South Korean and American officials. He was living here as a legal resident. http://www.nytimes.com/2007/04/17/us/17cnd-shooter.html?_r=1 ![]() ![]() |
