"I prefer American girls. They have bigger pelvises"
Korean guy to his friend: "Bro, I can't take you anywhere, can I?"
it's true since guys like a larger WHR in general...but i agree he could've been more discrete lol
He meant big PAWG

he seemed like he was going to have a conniption just saying those words out loud lmao
LMFAO!!!

His friend was visibly embarassed by him, so I'd say it is not "normal" behavior.
I like Korean's honesty unlike other Asian nations which are pressured by their Ancient Asian culture, government, and the society not to say things they want to say. I don't like hearing just the compliments or positive opinions but the reality.
For Koreans, they sound pretty soft spoken and seem to like US. Koreans are very direct and critical. They even impeached their own president. If they hated US, you would know 100%. These people sound like they like the US except for the two old ladies.
I am glad to hear that.🌝 I am from South Korea. In general, We are too honest and straightforward. So We are often evaluated as arrogant or callous even by Asians in our neighboring countries because of our unrelenting honesty. In this aspect, South Koreans and Japanese are completely opposite.👻

I absolutely LOVE Koreans! I can’t think of anything negitive to say about about them. Their hard working, upfront, honest, super FUNNY, kind, and hospitable. I haven’t had any experience with my Asian friends being discriminated against, actually my Vietnamese, Korean, and Chinese friends were the most popular kids in school growing up and that was like ten years ago so I know it’s probably even better now. There is a lot of good people in America that will have your back if you come to visit or live here. Of course you always got the stupid ignorant people but that’s everywhere. South Korea will always be our friend and ally! 🇰🇷❤️🇺🇸

i had a lot of problems in the US for being asian too. they think of it as a joke but they don't know that it is serious for us. when people make racists actions towards black people they will start a movement about it but when they are racist towards asian people will just think its a joke. i once went to a school counselor and he told me that its all jokes and that i shouldn't be bothered by it. it still happens til this day but im adapting because i cant control what they think about me i just accept everything they say. its sad but racism is a big part of US.
School is like that man. After high school, people mostly leave you alone. Students have a mob mentality in schools when surrounded by friends.

I lived in Seattle and I wish I still was there, but with the cost of living and everyday items constantly increasing, and crime rates soaring and quality of life in public declining, the return on investment is getting worse and worse. When the return was worse than the investment for me, I left. Yeah I miss the scenery, cultural diversity, and potentials, but without a secure financial future how would I start a family and give them the life I have always desired to give them? I moved back to the Midwest temporarily and am looking into Texas for the economic opportunity while still getting some diversity. The scenery of the Northwest is missed, but I didn't choose to price myself out. The local politicians had a part in making it hard.
I love Korean culture. I pray that racism will be addressed 🙏💜 greetings from the US 💗
@OORAH! no it's a lie, US is really a racist country and also I guess very much unsafe because getting catcalled on street had been almost normalized in NYC,countries like australia are better and not racist.
@Yeezuz I swear, the irony of it all. They're convinced white people are this and that yet don't think they're racist for it. So everytime something happens between a white and a non white person, the white guy is accused of being racist. They're the real bigots,mate.
@@rupalirajput9757 bet if a black guy committed a hate crime, you wouldn't say a thing
What racism? The racism you care about? Or all racism against all races?
@Yeezuz its sad really. When I was younger I grew up with the Hispanics as my friends and places I went. Never thought them different than me,an englishman. I've only recently realized how our society is. Not an American one,but a race focus one. People want to end racism and how do they do it? Going to a business only owned by people of a certain race,hiring someone of a certain race because they're that race,sending aid to families of a certain race and so on. Doesn't seem to be "anti racist" at all yet they are convinced they'll end racism doing it. A sad society.

Kilam HD 😂 same!
The truth is, Terran Marine Pikachu, is that the racism is very real, heard it from the neighbour next door, she lived in the U.S. for couple of years but she gave up and came back home.
I wouldn't doubt this because America is a really big place, but I highly doubt this would happen randomly where I live. Surely there are stereotypes, and there are reasons stereotypes exist, but in my experience if a minority comes into the neighborhood and is living a respectable life, things will be really good for them. We recently had a Hmong shaman move in near us in Wisconsin, their lifestyle is different but they are respectable people so everyone accepts them. *Keep in mind that many of the Hmong are very new immigrants as well and the old almost never speak English*
Kilam HD oh yea
Coroi Radu-Adrian so you've never actually been but you know it's hard because your neighbor told you ??
In my experience, the racism depends on where you're at in the country. Different areas are more judgmental
yeah my thoughts. It's can be more concentrated like in the south or boston but occasionally happens in random places all over but definitely more concentrated in those areas.
Exactly
Agreed. I've been to both sides of the country, north snd south and can say the only time i felt out of place is in Idaho. I was eben in Texas right before one of their shootings
It's always interesting to hear people from other countries talk about the blatant racism I. America they learn from the media. Many of these foreign countries are far more racist than America.
@@chadmancillas8506 I live in the south and in my entire life, I have met maybe 2 actually racist people.
That Guy Is A Legend For Being Honest Salute for Him😂
The comments about racism have some truth to them. It's true that US systematically discriminates against black people a LOT more, but it's also true that being racist toward Asians is a LOT more socially acceptable than toward black people. So if you're just living in Korea and hearing about all the racist experiences Asians have, you might think the way those people did.
Dont show them family guy!
Might I say though that while racism directed at asians may be less taboo, the actual discrimination that each group faces is waay different.
For example, many americans have an overall positive view of asian people as hard working, industrious, and well mannered. So while insensitive jokes may be more common towards asian people, they are also far less likely to experience things like financial or legal discrimination because of their race.
While you rarely hear people make racial jokes about black americans in public because it’s such a taboo, we have a long and ugly history of prejudice in this country painting black people as violent and uneducated. And thus they are much more likely to be mistreated by police, or denied a loan, for example.
This is just my anecdotal experience, but Id say black people have a much harder time with racism and discrimination in America than asian people do (broadly speaking of course, there are always exceptions)
There is no systematic racism in the US anymore. Asians do better here than any other race, so I don't know how you can call America a racist country.

"What's the biggest difference between Korean and American girls?"
"Pelvis size" 💀
xo_tilly_37 by that I think he meant hips and butts, but he had such a strange way of putting it
ChapStick No we Koreans say a lot about pelvis size. I think it's ranked higher than big boobs.
S S so y’all literally say “pelvis size” and not “damn she got a big ass” or “nice hips” or even “she thick asf”
ChapStick well they do say those too but they also say "wow look at her pelvis". I think both white and black people have relatively larger pelvis compared to Asian girls. if you really see a girl with small pelvis you would agree that her body looks like a man's body cause there would't be any curve from their waist to legs.
S S all about that pelvis size, I got u. You are Koreans funny 😆

“asians are more discriminated against than black people”
i’ve seen ppl in the comments comparing the oppression of asian americans and black americans which isn’t a fair discussion considering we experience oppression in different ways. asian americans have always faced more subtle oppression, due to racism against us being heavily normalized. we don’t see the same amount of media coverage bc the media only covers what they think will get them the most clout, which is y we see such a large emphasis on black american issues (blm). i’ve also seen ppl in this comment section arguing that asians are the model minority and therefore receive better treatment from white people. actually, this gives white people the impression that they can jokingly be racist towards us and we also get more racism from other people of color bc of this. we cannot compare the black experience to the asian experience bc they happen in two majorly different settings.
edit: another thing to consider are the hate crimes. while i feel like we shouldnt compare the experiences of both, we must face the reality that black ppl experience more violent racism. their oppression is much more apparent and from the beginning, have always taken the direct hit.
As an Asian, I'd rather face the racism I do today than get shot by the police for being black. We can compare. One has to do with lives.
@@Libturd which is y we as asian americans and asians around the world must stand in solidarity for blm. they take the hardest hits in my opinion throughout the history of this country (america), maybe only rivaled by the suffering of indigenous peoples (not that its a race or anything, those two peoples have just suffered the worst historically). i do think black ppl have it worst than asians in amwrica specifically, but i felt like the comparison of oppression has so many factors to consider and would therefore be inaccurate for me to compare. idk if that makes sense.
Couldn't agree more. This whole discrimination Olympics is exactly what the racist white folk want: minorities tearing each other apart. They already succeeded on some level with curtailing affirmative action, convincing a subset of Asian Americans that they are discriminated in education. And if we are being serious, it's actually cruel to compare Asian Americans to a people whose first footsteps on these shores were in bondage, and whose history was marked by some of the most unimaginable, inhumane practices in human history. Speaking as an Asian American, I would never ever directly compare my struggles with Black Americans.
Yeah, us Asians nd blacks need to stand together against racism, every race needs to start together
I don't think we need to even compare because of all the tension between the black and asian community, comparing oppression will just make things worse.. in my opinion though, asians will say they have it worse and black people will say they have it worse and that's because they've never experienced eachothers' issues so you would never know but this is only in the u.s. worldwide, black people would be the most oppressed race because of skin color, facial features and hair are against everyone's standard not to mention the history of slavery for the sole purpose that they are black that existed in many countries (and stereotypes that we all carry guns to shoot people and are super aggressive)
edit: nope black people definitely experience more racism in the u.s than any other race, take slavery and the segregation laws for example that used to exist
I absolutely love this video. Most people think that Koreans don't like America. That is so not true. I fell in love with Asian Culture when I was a little kid. I was 4 years old when I first I first saw The Great Wall of China. Just the architecture and I was in awe of the advancement of technology that they had available. I think what drew me to the Asian Culture is the sense of honor and family. I came from a broken home and family ties were not strong. The fact that honor means so much. That is not something that you see everyday, you know when your word meant something. My first celebrity crush was Bruce Lee and my first love was a sweet Korean guy that was so amazing. I will make it to Korea someday. I have faith 🤞❤️
When you are in Korea, please don’t mention Great Wall and Bruce Lee to show appreciation for “Asian culture” you have for Korea. They don’t feel connected to China in any meaningful way and will think of it as an insult

I totally agree.
Well said.
As an Asian American myself, I don't really get offended over the whole racism towards Asians. TBH I somewhat make fun of Asians too. LOL.
i would suggest you open your eyes. Right now we're seeing an uptick in crimes against asian people (read what's happening in seattle) because asians are wrongly viewed as easy targets that don't fight back.
There's also anecdotal experiences of those in entertainment, that get targeted and people trying to suppress their business or steal clients primarily because it promotes positive asian image (ever wonder why 5% percent of the population with the most money and education somehow gets barely any positive representation in the western media?)
as an Asian born and raised in American, some of my friends have made some of those asian "racist" jokes like eating dog or something but I don't even mind because it's true and I make jokes out of it myself
Man, this is a heartbreaking video, especially the part where the participants believe the US is racist and would be so against them. In my experience, the Americans I've met regard Asian people highly. Americans love Asian products for their quality, they buy them up so much that I'm not aware of an American television manufacturer currently existing. Asian culture produces very intelligent, hard working, respectful people who are not looking to make frivolous trouble. This applies to the individuals, not necessarily current or past governments. The misconception will just take more time to go away I guess.
They’d be shocked at how many Americans love Asian dramas! 😹
Go to a black area and say that
America is only racist to black
I am American, and you're full of it, or you live behind a gated community in white suburbia. The more successful an Asian becomes, the more hatred they receive from white Americans because they can't stand it when others outperform them, even if it's in something completely unrelated to their field.
When you are labeled black in America the ball game is totally different. Racism towards black people in America is so bad that I have begun to look for countries in Africa to repatriate and I hope more black people would leave the U.S. Honestly, I wish all black people would leave America because we gave so much to this country and got so little in return.
Watching this 3 years later and I can bet they would’ve reacted much differently today

@Mr. Man Multiculturalism has completely failed in the past and continues to do so. Humans never learn smh😒
it doesn't help when media also likes to perpetuate those ideas.
There’s an unfortunately side effect of mass diversity and that is a difficulty in assimilation. America is it’s own country with its own culture, obviously we accept all people of all creeds colors and religions, but it’s impossible to do that without schisms. It doesn’t help that the media benefits off of the heated division between the races, political parties, and religions. They perpetuate and stoke the flames and make it seem worse than it actually is. If you visit America you’ll find that wherever you go, people are generally friendlier and more gracious than if you were to go to another country. Americans are known for being kind to strangers the majority of us are not resists, rude, or aggressive. It’s an unfortunate stereotype that fails to actually anchor in reality.
Jonathan Garcia Exactly. The media always makes the US seem worse than it actually is. The media can only thrive by reporting disasters, disease, and doomsday. Racism is the topic that seems to get the most attention nowadays to the point where people are creating fake hate crimes for their 15 minutes of fame. Sure there is racism but racism is everywhere. Even in homogenous societies colorism develops.
America get streotypes all the time. While racism in single cultureed society is way more. For example Indians make fun of east asians, black and whites.
3:12 love how honest and based this dude is
Really great video, like the girl said’ “WOW!”
When the girl said Wow she sounded really American
true true i notice that too
I watch a lot of S Korean dramas and movies (got to love those subtitles), and they use a lot of American phrases and I laugh hearing it in a heavy accent. Ex: Yo Dude, Oh my gosh, sexy, get out of my face. lolol
Right
Yeah that was great.
Plz shut up
there's racist people everywhere. I am sure south Korea has it's fair share of that
S A D - E G G towards black ppl
sadly, the racism is mostly towards people of color.
S A D - E G G most ppl likes black ppl, maybe you don't know what it feels like to be out of country
Daisuke ichimaru ha. okay japanese
Ok , Mr *Daisuke ichimaru*
My home town is super diverse and my high school had many different types of people and I’ve never experienced racism in my hometown. However the more rural/ south you the more likely you’ll experience it
That one guy came off as slightly creepy in a hilarious way. "Bigger boobs!" "Pelvis size!" Lol. I appreciate your honesty, my friend.
'Pelvis size' dude nearly made me spit my water out.
what's different between korean girls and american girls
"PELVIS SIZE"
*snickering in the background*
"Bigger boobs too"

He's not wrong though
Boy knows what he likes for certain.
Much respect my guy.

Reporter: What's your take on Donald Trump?
South Korean: *laughs*
Me: same
people are not sure why they don't like Trump but they think they better dislike him for some reason.
DrJams but most of them did provide clear points as to why trump doesnt seem to fit the position thoo
kei-san So one girl said he is bad for putting america first. Is Trump supposed to put america last or something?
Then some other woman said about the wall. Why is keeping the illegals out of America bad? After that some other woman said trump should embrace different points of view. Is trump not allowed his own views or something. Oh wait he is only allowed the views people tell him to have.
These peoples objections to Trump come from no real concerns. They don't like Trump because the media told them not to. They didn't think for themselves or give any good reasons.
yet America will heal better and they get lied to a lot there in korea they thought the black population was at highest 40% and it probably would be but the democratic party the party of the kkk convinced them to kill themselves. you need to read more . margaret singer was a nazi goddess. so grow up we need you in the future
Doodle letch in Korea you do not usually think of businessmen as president. That’s why he laughed
Korean : "I want a Hamburger whenever i think of America. " LOL!
Thank you for your videos.
Wow I'm surprised all the talk about racism in America. I'm American Asian and I was on a cross country trip and people warned me about racism in certain parts of the US but I didn't experience any of it, everyone is so welcoming. America is such a big country and has so many different sub cultures.
I too am also Asian American born and bred and trust me, racism is still out there, its just they dont say it aloud because of what others will think of them.
Quite lucky then ...
Nami Lim idk if you were replying to me but i meant the stereotypes like being smart is all i meant
I'm American Asian also, I have lived here for nearly 16 years and have experienced some racism and prejudice for different reasons, but, most people are nice and think it's cool that I'm bi-lingual.
mia manning haha no I was replying to this thread in general but I realised that my friends, who are Asian and in America ( I only visited I don't live there) often get dismissed for good grades and achievements just because they are "Asian" and seen as naturally smart
i was shocked to hear the one girl that said “i heard that koreans have it far worse than black people” i know she must not know a lot, but as an american that statement is completely false😂 i do respect her, and i was very sad to hear that people make fun of asians badly as well.
Ken Lompart haha right
One thing that I don't think a lot of the comments reflect is that these are perceptions and they're not exactly based in reality. Clearly Asians in my opinion are treated better than almost any race because as many stated they are considered very smart and well-to-do as well as non-violent so there's very few people that are going to actually have problems with them. I saw some people complaining about how they felt someone looked at them the wrong way or something and I think they're being little snowflakes compared to what African Americans actually go through. But that's not the only example, just the most surprising
Ryan Shaw yeah i definitely agree. literally where i live if your asian your asian. no one talks about you badly because what is there to say? any asian race such as chinese, korean, thai and etc seem to get made fun of the least to me.
Cleveland brown The racism I have seen and experienced have came from white and black people. Mostly black people. I got attacked and black guys called me ugly and threw racial slurs at me. Just because I disagreed with a misogynistic comment that was made. I’m not asian but they did it because i had an asian on my pfp.
She's probably talking about social hierarchy. If you are the only Asians in a southern town, you're going to get more racist comments than a black person. Simply due to numbers and limited exposure to Asians aside from war. I've lived in Atlanta and Charlotte in the past and I can attest to that.
it's really fun seeing how sk think of america because i think so many koreans maybe outside of seoul and big cities tend to have very close minded views of foreigners (like other countries, but there more pronounced) but i'm afraid the movie stereotypes and politicians have completely misrepresented life in america. also, to those two ppl, racism towards black people isnt solved..
I am here in USA for 14 years, before the pandemic everything was fine. During the pandemic, everything is changed, I do not like to go outside anymore because I may get attack anytime due to my skin color. The racist is much worse toward Asian than Africa Americans.
The guy in the suit is sooo good looking..
Ana Acosta his haircut is amazing.
I knowwwww!!!! All they guys in this video are so cute 😍
I clicked just bcz of him lol😅
I feel like this is pretty interesting as an Asian American to watch. In Korea, they have the perception that racism is pretty bad here, but I can vouch for myself and say if anything, people are more excited about Asian culture! More people are learning Asian languages, meeting more people from that culture, and I think it is definitely heading more on the positive side!
Yes. I can vouch for that too. I find Americans friendly. Especially when they knew that you just moved in their country. They want to learn about your country and culture.
남들다하는흔한사랑한번못해본최강의전사 So what is your argument here? That we can’t like and appreciate other people’s culture?
Yep I agree. I'm from the SF bay area in CA and Asians are part of our culture here. I even dated a guy from Korea. I actually felt sad watching this video listening to how they felt we would treat them. I hope they learn the truth.
No you absolute idiot. I don’t know where you live but as an Korean American in the Midwest Asians treated like shit. Everyone thinks you’re fucking Chinese and make all kinds of racist jokes and look down on you
Taenosaur139 yeah, from what I've seen, people look up to asians because they're stereotyped as really smart and hard working (which seems to be true tbh) but I don't know what it's like in other states (I'm from NY). Also wages are higher, in general, for asians than all other races/ethnicities in the U.S.
I live in the Los Angeles area, watching this was fascinating
Unfortunately, there seems to be prejudice in every society. But discrimination against one group is an attack on all. I'd like to believe most normal Americans like and admire Koreans and other nationalities, as most come from another country as well. In the end, our character is what matters most.
Racism in America isn’t even as bad as it is in super homogenous societies like Japan and Korea where much of it is systemic and blatant.
"But former President Park just got impeached..."
"Like I said... there could be a lot of similarities"
I DIED
He's reaction was so funny, when he heard the word "Trump", he just laughed. Can't say most us feel any different. It's almost comical that he's president.
Nah, from what I've seen both Americans and Koreans are ignorant about their government. They want to criticize Trump when most of them overlook how their President is literally being mind controlled by a cult group for years. That's some serious ignorance in their part.
And then they launched one of the biggest peaceful protests since the Hippie movement against Vietnam in 70s-80s America. And they actually succeeded.
Yeah but like the user below said. They got her out too... so...
trump didnt do anything illegal dumbass
for me, i think koreans are more open minded. even when they don’t agree with something, they still are respectful. they are more open to the differences of people. they tend to be soft-spoken making other people think that they are dumb but they are actually intellectuals and we need more people like them 🤷♀️
EZRA CHIM CHIM
Open minded? May I remind you that things like homosexuality and mental health are viewed as jokes?? I love my SK but they are very conservative haha

Christina Thieu i get what you’re saying but even the girl in the video said americans are more open minded and wild etc...
Yeah its truemm open minded means he /she csn accepted new ideas and different culture..
Their opinions were heavily based off of media which alters reality and truth. But nice questions and good to hear their thoughts.
I’m American and I honestly find Koreans very attractive. I love there eyes, their beautiful faces, there accents and how smart they are. Love you South Korea🇰🇷from America🇺🇸
Me too
if asians are afraid to come to america because of the racism, i recommend coming to california or ideally the bay area since it has the most asians there. people in the bay area are very accepting (at least most people) and i'm constantly surrounded by asians myself.
Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego all have a lot of asians too. Some neighborhoods even predominately asian.
Also, racism in America in general is so minor compared to other countries. It's not what the media tells you.
mel New York also has tons of Asians as well. It wouldn't seem like it but there's plenty downtown. They also have a koreatown (k-town) and Chinatown ☺
mel up in the north its rare to see Asians,I only know to Asians and there cool
Yea the west and east coast are used to being around asian people since it’s become so diverse. I believe the racism mostly is from the mid west of the U.S.
Yea and lately the population of Asians in Florida has begun to grow, the country is become more and more diverse

Most are flat tho but not like them Korean girls.
Many Koreans have not forgotten the help of veterans from the United States and 20 countries who actively helped during the Korean War.
(US, UK, Australia, Ethiopia, Thailand, Netherlands, Philippines, Canada, New Zealand, Colombia, France, Turkey, Luxembourg, Greece, South Africa, Belgium, Sweden, India, Denmark, Norway, Italy, thank you all!)
I agree about Americans not caring about appearance. I've been lamenting about the sagging pants trend since the 90s.😖
Also, many of us are not taught how to dress _well_ . Its more about self expression than making a *good* impression with your fashion choices and appearances.
I want to dress well but don't know how (on a budget).
That is to say, if you were to shop in the posh and expensive areas/stores you could easily put together a good outfit that makes you appear chic and well-dressed, but it's not affordable or practical. In the cheaper stores everything is _fast_ _fashion_ and looks cheap and tacky. 🤨
Wish I had a Korean girl friend that could help me dress, they all look very lovely in this video.😍
That one man that said freedom is awesome
you really think USA is more free than other countries?
@@_Wai_Wai_ look at China or north Korea what about a lot of Europe we have a lot of more freedoms than other countries
@@apollonian802 Lets not compare with N. Korea. I suppose you'll bring up the fact that Chinese gov't censors Facebook, youtube, and other American based social media platforms. I'd say they have good reason to. Remember the Arab Spring uprisings? it was brought on by Social Media, with perhaps some encouragement behind the scenes from US gov't. Edward snowden's revelations already confirms that US gov't uses the internet not only to spy on China , Russia and on American allies, and even on American citizens living inside the borders. You think the Troll farms from Russia causing havok in American discourse is just a conspiracy theory?
@@apollonian802 I've lived and worked in USA for more than 30 years, while I do say the Internet for now is still relatively free, I'd say many aspects of American life is not free. For instance, all usable land within the US border is actually property of the US gov't. Even if you "Buy" a property, the gov't can take it away for tax reasons, for development etc... Land rights, mineral rights, oil rights. The Rich get richer, by paying off politicians to give them such rights, so that they can become even richer. With American elections dominated by Big Money interest groups; with the way the Electoral College is set up, the so called American Democracy is not really democratic at all. Special interest groups, big money is how you get elected and re-elected in the USA. Once elected, Waging war, making sweeping economic and political changes, the incumbents rarely put it to a vote to the people, and often times the people are the last to know about such changes.

It's so weird to see how much more different an American South Korean is to a native. For example the interviewer seems so much more confident than his male counterparts. He looks bulkier and even his hairstyle. Tbh, his face doesn't even look that Asian, lol.
