>>579693doesn't hurt to just pick something random off the menu or ask for recommendations as a novice, but i'll list some stuff i really enjoy from korean restaurants.
-korean fried chicken. beware of the spicy sauce; the restaurants in my city make it super weak but still a bit too spicy for my normie white bf. restaurants in tokyo never toned it down and, despite loving heat, it made me unable for think for 10 mins straight a couple of times. but there are other sauces too, and the classic combo is k-fried chicken + beer. (chimaek)
-bibimbap. just a bunch of veggies, one or two meats and rice. to eat it you pour the sauce they give you (some restaurants don't offer extra sauce tho) and mix it all together. eat with a spoon. very basic but delicious.
-korean pancake/buchimgae. there are different asian variants of this dish and it's easy to enjoy imo.
-a side of kimchi! if you've never tried it, you should. it's a staple of korean meals. it might be an acquired taste but if you keep an open mind you could come to love it. bit spicy though.
-bulgogi. marinated meat. divine.
-blood sausage/soondae. weird name, weird color…but it's delicious, trust me. tastes nothing like what you expect.
-tteokbokki. chewy rice cakes with spicy sauce. god i miss it so much, you can get it for so cheap in asia. it's pretty damn spicy usually. the texture is great.
-jjajangmyeon/black bean sauce noodles. black bean sauce over some noodles, no broth. best variant is seafood jjajangmyeon imo. it makes a mess (the sauce is quite literally black) but it's so tasty.
-any jigae. stew. will depend on your personal taste, of course. i personally love kimchi jigae.
-gimbap. japanese maki but make it korean.
-korean bbq. honestly i'm not obsessed with it but yakiniku/korean bbq are most fun with a group of friends. meaningless and maybe impossible if alone (the restaurant might only serve 2+ people).
-naengmyeon. cold noodles. only eaten in summer. it could sound off-putting but it's actually satisfying.
-bingsu! famous korean dessert in summer. still haven't had it but it's pretty nice from what i've heard.

>>1545197I guess I shouldn't be surprised tbh, was the previous president kicked out of office for giving too much money to a sect and letting it use her?

There's another wfam youtuber I feel worried about. Her name is Linda and she was super young when she married a much older korean. Since a couple of months now it's only him in their videos, taking care of their young daughter alone. Many asked whether they divorced, so he made a video explaining that she went back to Germany to rest, since she was overwhelmed by the pressure of being on youtube and getting negative comments.
But I also saw a couple of viewers saying they find it very fishy, that she would just leave her daughter behind, that she couldn't even write a small explanation. Why do her parents need to take care of her, isn't that his job as a husband? Some even claimed he abuses her and hides her away. The man simply taking the baby from the mom would sound eerily similar to the girl above… She hasn't been seen since months (again what previously loving mom could leave her small toddler for so long?), meanwhile he happily continues making money by regularly posting his daughter, supposedly so that her family in Germany could see her…

To discuss SK politics a little deeper though, I wonder if gender relations would improve if women had to do mandatory military service too. That seems to be one of the big talking points Korean moids use against Korean women. I know in Korean culture women are expected to serve their husbands (
and his family) domestically, so I’m definitely not trying to imply Korean women are somehow less burdened by society. However, in a world where women should be equally respected, would some kind of equal expectation for service force moids to see women more equally? I know this is probably an unpopular idea, but I genuinely think it could help. Don’t flame me kek.

>Sampo Generation (Korean: 삼포세대; Hanja: 三抛世代; RR: samposedae, "Three giving-up generation") is a neologism in South Korea referring to a generation that gives up courtship, marriage, and having kids. Many of the young generation in South Korea have given up those three things because of social pressures and economic problems such as increasing cost-of-living, tuition payments, and affordable housing scarcity.[1] There is also the opo sedae, or "five giving-up generation", which takes the same three and adds employment and home ownership. The chilpo sedae ("seven giving-up generation") further includes interpersonal relationships and hope, while the gupo sedae ("nine giving-up generation") extends to physical health and appearance. Finally, the sippo sedae ("ten giving-up generation") or wanpo sedae ("total giving-up generation") culminates in giving up life.

Despite this, there are plenty of Korean women who don't resort to plastic surgery and live happily with their natural features. They're still criticized if they aren't conventionally attractive, though.
>They can always just apply for a scholarship somewhere else lolWhere? Rich Koreans are sent to study in the US if they do badly in school but most average and poor families don't have that option without making some significant sacrifices.

Koreans don't even have to work those jobs. But Koreans do work those jobs. Tons of Koreans, especially older Koreans, are desperate. There's a phenomenon in Korea where office workers are thrown away when they reach a certain age which results in a lot of competition for even minimum-wage jobs. Walk the streets of Korea and look at the physical laborers, they are all Korean men over 60. Migrants are hired because they are cheaper and more easily exploited, not because all Koreans sneer at doing dirty work. A job is a job when you're hungry.
>Living in one of the safest most modern firstie countries is not real oppression, STFU.Yes, South Korea is a relatively safe country, but you have to take into account other things, such as the fact that rape often goes unreported by women due to stigma. Also, stalking isn't taken very seriously in Korea or Japan, and there have been cases in both countries where women were stalked for years, the police knew but did nothing, and then they were killed by their stalkers.

>>2566727>There's a phenomenon in Korea where office workers are thrown away when they reach a certain age How and why did this develop? I know that in Japan it's the opposite problem where salaried boomers just calcify up every major corporation. You had instances of Japanese office workers in management in their 60s insisting that the company still operates with fax machines through the 2010s.
Even in China there's salarymen getting basically tenure. I thought the model for Chaebols/Zaibatzus was in exchange for total commitment to the company, they'll provide for you for life.
