Dating Culture: The Foriegner & The Korean

Dating Culture: The Foriegner & The Korean

Whats your thoughts / experience with 'online dating'?

When I 1st arrived in this foreign land I signed up on a random dating site to attempt meeting 'English speaking Koreans' (which is harder than you'd think), but I got totally wierded out after 2 different occasion's when 2 different random girls recognized me on the street's of Seoul from the site and started freaking out when they saw me and started trying to talk to me...

It was extremely awkward to say the least...but kinda cool at the same time, if that makes sense?

In a city of 24 million people, whats the odds? I guess they are 1 / 24 000 000.

So incredibly random!

Needless to say, I canceled my account later that second night so I would not be awkwardly ambushed on the streets again, and I decided to meet girls the old fashion way; pay for them - just joking haha - (fyi: I've never done that, nor could I ever).

In closing, I have to say that Korean's are absolutely great people as they have shown me a great time in my 6 months in their country and I am very appreciative and forever grateful.

I will miss alot of the great people I have met here, but I have a sneeky suspicion I will be back in the not to distance future...

Unitl then, here is a funny video about the awkwardness about cross cultural dating...
