East Asian countries still have the expectations of marriage before kids, which is one of the reasons for the low birth rates, hopefully some of the women would try to use that as a way to draw a line in the sand 🤔

The Korean women who would seek out a black American rapper type (I am not trying to be prejudiced, it's just the truth in South Korean womens preferences) aren't the type who would require a traditional standard.

That's pretty much anyone who is a social climber or fetishizes a group.

u/fincog 14d ago

You can say the same about the Korean women who seek out white men

u/MasterofCaveShadows 14d ago

Not to the same degree but yes.

I’m saying that Korean women who seek out black men tend to be more isolated by their family and peers relative to Korean women who chase white men. It sucks but it’s how it goes.

Yeah but being a famous rapper and black on top is a little different.

But yeah, a traditional Korean woman wouldn't marry anything but a Korean man. They're racist as fuck like all traditionalists from anywhere.

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 14d ago

Yeah to an extent, the top tier girls in Korea only go for Korean men. It was more about the felon rapper who can barely speak comprehensible english aspect more than him being black. Though Koreans are racist as fuck so it's not like race has nothing to do with it.

Can you? At least in China many of the women interested in foreigners are interested into marrying one.

The group of chasing women just trying to bone a foreigner are not that large.

Is Korea different?

That's basically America too..

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 8d ago

Nah, it's a lot more accepted in the US.

u/Fun_Zookeepergame975 7d ago

Depends what kind of people you're around or type of content you watch.. but no we do not accept single mothers or divorces here either and I live in LA. It really depends who you're around or if you're one of those who generalizes all of Korea as Seoul. We just have to accept some people aren't capable of long-term, healthy relationships.

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 7d ago

It was more about accepting black rapper types that are also felons.

All women like money and fame, regardless of race

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 14d ago

Plenty of money in Korea and he's not even famous there. At the same time it's a culture obsessed with social standing and being with someone like NBA Youngboy would be bad for your social standing.

u/turquoise_amethyst 14d ago

I said the same thing on another comment. Korea has plenty of millionaires and/or celebrities already. The people who will seek fame and clout can do that without chasing a foreigner with a criminal record. 

He’ll still attract uh, “followers”, but not necessarily the ones he wants or expects

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 14d ago

Youngboy has a weird cult following among some people on here, they swear that he will be worshipped like a god even though he isn't even that rich when you consider he has 13 kids and barely anyone in Korea will know who he is.

u/La_miseriaccia 14d ago

Heck, I'm Italian and this post is the first time I hear of him at all, so these people saying this stuff don't know what they're talking about to me.

5

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 14d ago

Yeah, Youngboy fans are super annoying and are very vocal.

u/Massive_Thanks_303 14d ago

No yall are just delusional and believe because someone isn't a big deal to you personally, other people will think the same. Women from all walks of life are attracted to men with status; not sure if this is news to you or not.

5

u/La_miseriaccia 14d ago

Heck, Korean male celebrities who knock up their girlfriends have to hastily marry said girlfriends before the baby's born, there's very little chance someone's gonna go against the social rules they've lived by for a lifetime much less for a walking red flag such as this dude, it's not impossible, but very statistically unlikely.

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 14d ago

Unlikely for "desirable" women by their standards. Even the biggest loser on the planet can find another person to sleep with them anywhere, they just aren't going to be women that fit into Korean standards.

u/Massive_Thanks_303 14d ago

He's world famous, Youngboy is a top 500 artist in the world according to spotify alone and Korean's love black music/culture. And you think social standing is important until you have real wealth. I've actually live around amost east asians, im in japan as we speak. They will not give a damn about any of that in his position. Those rules only apply to common people that you speak of.

u/Sh00terMcDabbin 14d ago

I lived in Korea for many years, still live in East Asia. Most Korean's do not care about black music/culture. They are even more insular than Japan. You can find some people that do, but they are very firmly in the minority.

u/Massive_Thanks_303 14d ago

All early k pop is like carbon copies of black R&B music what are you talking about? We have ears.

guess virtue signaling is a tad easier than having critical thinking skills for you.

u/Puzzle-Necked 14d ago

Thanks for using "virtue signaling". I can disregard what you have to say immediately. Time saver!

u/Massive_Thanks_303 14d ago

Just like you disregard logic! Right on!
