What do you guys think of Carly Foulkes as the T-mobile girl? She's not the sexiest girl, but there's something just so damn cute about her - she has this endearing, slightly dorky look that I dig, and a lot more femme than any other girl around. I see it occasionally among teenage girls, but rarely ever among celebrities or girls past 25. It's funny though, she doesn't really have that quality in her non-T-mobile shoots.
Parenthetically, I hate what the color hot pink has come to represent. It's this garish statement that says "Yes, I'm a girl! Girl Power!" when the girl wearing it has no discernible femininity. Thus hot pink sweatpants, hot pink sloppy hoodies, hot pink blackberry covers, etc. If chicks were more feminine, they wouldn't need to aggressively remind us that they're still women with these tacky colors. It's like a scientific law: the more chicks as a whole come to resemble men, the more they brandish the superficial accoutrements of having a vagina, like wearing hot pink and rocking a flamboyant purse.
Carly pulls it off though.
Edit: I just saw a brief clip of her talking. Stick to the photos

Hold on Mr. McGinnis.
Play this song 4 times in a row and tell me if you feel the same way:
Or this one:
Imagine it's traffic time and you got two Korean girls in your truck singing away to Mr. Taxi taxi taxi taxi. You'd change your mind. even if they had these bodies:

Aloha!
You're right, K-Girls have got their quirks, but which girls don't? Granted I have less experience with them than you do, but they still appeal to me after all is added up.
This will sound weird, but I listen to quite a bit of Korean music. Have done since I was a kid. Granted, my choices are usually jazzier and less "bubblegum" than the links you listed, but still, I'm not unfamiliar.
This whole discussion may be moot anyway. The chances of a black foreigner snagging a good looking K-Girl in korea are pretty darn low given the cultural circumstances (I've never heard a black man say even a mildly good thing about dating opportunity in Korea, not even one). If I make it to East Asia, I'll probably be sticking to J-Girls.
A guy can still dream, though...

Well this is half true.
The average Korean won't go near a black person, or a Polynesian, in my case. Here's the average Korean woman:
However, the dirty one's (the ones we like) want nothing more than to piss mommy and daddy off. They also want to piss off all the other Korean dudes within eyeshot. I've seen this happen in and out of Korea. This is also the reason all the mama's at all the karaoke/hostess spots in Honolulu know me by name.
One's like these:

I don't go to import shows for the drift cars. I go so the models can piss off the show attendees from their country by giving me their phone numbers.
Athlone McGinnis, before you go all the way to Seoul, next time hot import nights or something similar comes to your area, buy a ticket and hit up the girls at the Kuhmo Tires booth. I bet you'll be surprised. And since you know about the music, you're one up on lots of other guys.
Then take her out and karaoke this one. She'll cream:

Definitely something I'll consider.
I feel like I could make this 100% easier by just learning some Korean. I only know a couple of phrases as of now, which I've picked up via the music over the years.
Either way, we'll see.

Here is actually one of my favorite songs. One day I'll figure out how to karaoke it-something tells me it might go over well:
Come to think of it, this idea (learning to karaoke or serenade a good song or two in another language) could do wonders for a lot of foreign women, not just the K-Girls. I'll test it one of these days.
