Dash, I gotta say that I think you'll eventually catch yellow fever. It took me about two months to come around but once I did there was no way I was going back to all those sloppy Waegook beer hags throwing themselves at anything that'll stick a dick in them. Almost every foreign guy I know in Korea goes through the whole conversion process. As with a lot of the Western guys in Korea, before I came to Asia I had no interest in Asian girls. Sure maybe, a hot Filipina or Thai or Maria Ozawa once in a while, but the majority of Northeast Asians... zilch. I did a few long trips to Europe and South America and prefered Latinas and Eastern Europeans like the majority on this site but basically just went to Korea as a way to make some quick cash and extend my travels.

Now I'm really glad I did as Asian chicks have become my favorite. I still like Latinas (just spent 3 months banging down Mexicanas this summer)but think that if I ever decide to settle down it's going to be with an Asian. They just age so much better than other ethnicities. When I see a girl with big tits and a big ass I immediately think about what she's going to look like at 45. Probably overweight. Most Korean women still look good at 35, 45, hell, even some at 55. Estimating their ability to age well is connected to my beta ambition to eventually settle down and have some kids. It'd be nice if I still want to fuck their mother after a few years too. I think Asian women fulfill that criteria.

So back to Korea... one thing that you're going to have to learn to do is appreciate the Asian aesthetic. As noted before, there is a different standard of beauty than the West. Once you embrace it Korea will become your playground. Learn some conversational Korean, make some genuine Korean friends (they legitimize you in the eyes of xenophobic K-girls), and approach everything that smiles at you.

Of course you should always go for the bang as soon as possible but just racking up phone numbers and playing the texting game is going to get you tons of play. I got almost all of my lays from K-girls that I met outside of the bar scene. On average it's much harder to pull a Korean chick away from a group of friends at the end of a night in the bars for a one night stand than any western chick. Even if she's a slut she doesn't want to look like one in front of her friends (In Korea looking like a skank that bangs dirty foreigners is a terrible label to carry around) Plus, if there are any Korean guys around they are going to cockblock the shit out of you. You might have to just settle for a number and try to get her to go out drinking with you by herself on a week night. Get her to your apartment and it's game over. Korean chicks don't just come over to hang out.

So... in conclusion I think you should just embrace it. Find a Korean chick that'll suck your balls empty, pay for meals, clean your apartment, come over and make you Kimchi Jigae, and you'll never want to go back to western chicks.

So yeah, that's my first post. If you have any questions about Korea send them my way. I put up good numbers there and would consider myself an expert in gaming them. I'm living in Bangkok now, so if you have any questions about this place (heaven on earth! and not just for asiaphiles) send them my way too. Later

Sounds like,in S. Korea, you made the best of a difficult situation, which is what a traveler often has to do. Though with so many countries and women available, I'm not so sure the "stick it out" and adapt kind of advice is the best. With experience, after about a month, its pretty easy to tell if a place is worth it for the long haul. For example, I've been in Ecuador for a while now for business reasons and have adapted just like you did in S. Korea. However, whenever i get the opportunity i head back to Colombia or Brazil. Life is too short for making a good thing out of someting mediocre.

I think in hindsight, it was a difficult place to live. There are definitely easier and more desirable places to live in Asia. That's part of why I'm in Thailand now. This place is just rather easy to live in.

I drank way too much while I was in Korea--like to the point where I wore myself down and ended up getting sick with tonsilitis. It's part of their culture to drink all the time and rather hard to avoid if you want to have a social life.

The thing about Korea is that many people develop the "stick it out" attitude because of the way teaching contracts are set up. If you stay until the end, you walk away with a nice severance bonus and get a paid flight home. If you break the contract you lose that and probably the housing deposit that your school took out of your first paycheck. That's about $3500 right there, up and gone, plus whatever it's going to take to fly you off of the peninsula.

There were a lot of bad things about Korea but also a lot of good. I saved about $20k in my 15 months there
(I'm an extreme case), fucked lots of girls, and took an awesome trip through East Asia afterward.

Will I go back? No. There are just too many other places that I can go now that are more desirable. I still admire a hot Korean girl though and think they can be extremely sexy.

What kind of business things are you doing in Ecuador? I've been to Colombia, Ecuador, and Brazil, amongst others, and would agree that Ecuador is less appealing. Insane natural beauty but things like the cuisine, women, and crime are major drawbacks.

Have you thought about Mexico? I'm a huge advocate of the middle-class Mexicanas. Las Fresas. They can match Colombianas IMO. Plus the food in Mexico is awesome

Good insight.

ONS here at the club / bar scene appear damn near impossible.

Best way is def to get that number and seal the deal during the week when she is away from her friends.

What was your favorite clubs / bars to go to?

Post: #53

In certain countries going for one night stands in clubs or bars is counterproductive and a waste of time. Ecuador and Korea seem similar in that sense. That is why internet game is not a bad idea also. The trick is "isolating" and NEVER allowing her friends to influence her interaction with you . Any girl who accepts a solo date with a foreigner in these countries is already half way to your apartment.

Depends on what your race is. My mother is Ecuadorean so Im Latin. "Fresas" in Mexico are generally looking for white guys and are not DTF as much as Colombianas. If youre a latin or black guy better to stick with Colombia. If you're white it would depend on your spanish ability.

(10-25-2011 09:19 PM)Dash Global Wrote:  So let me get this straight. Now your saying ugliness can be measure/proven and beauty cant?!?!?

Kind of. Generally an ugly chick is the one which looks unhealthy. Typically it is at least one of the following:

- Busted (because of age, some diseases, substance abuse, etc);
- Grossly deformed (because she's too fat or too skinny, because of an accident etc)

The opposite, however, is not true. If the chick looks healthy, she is not necessary beautiful. She may be just "okay" - i.e. "plain Jane" type. You wouldn't call her ugly, but you won't look on her twice. For me vast majority of American chicks fit right into this category.

Quote:Yes you can have two groups of ugly chicks. And obviously metrically speaking one ugly group would look better than the other ugly group.

How do you know that they are ugly?!??!?

This is easy. Just split your chicks from the group A into five different groups, and range them up. So there will be the most beautiful chick - but she'd be still ugly, because they all came from the ugly pool!

Quote:Yes this is due to preference and slight variations in ones understanding of Universal beauty.

Slight? We've seen people giving scores ranging from 4 to 9 to the same chick. That's the difference between the plain Jane and movie star. If this is a "slight variation", then your standards make no sense at all.

To further illustrate it: you know Uma Thurman? Do you think she's attractive? Well, to me she's fugly. I wouldn't fuck her even if I was grosdly drunk - and if I did, the next day I'd commit suicide. At the same time she's a movie star here in US, and I'm sure some people jerk off at her.

Quote:Which I illustrated in the example I gave with the chick A and chick B where every man thinks chick A is hotter but each man rates her slightly different but ahead/higher than chick B every time.

Now this may be a good time to be a dick and ask you whether you have the "CRYSTAL BALL, or MIND READING" as you so boldly refer to "every man" here, even though your sample size is likely less than 100 of them. So how'd you explain that?

Quote:You are wanting to play both sides of field here. Which I noted in my previous comments.

You are making things up.

Quote:I am confirming that make up can alter a womans appearance (appearance - the thing we use to measure beauty) Thus causing the same chick to get different ratings depending on the different appearances she generates with makeup or other cosmetic means.

But you did not even mention makeup in your list of beauty standards! So are you now adjusting your list on the fly?

Quote:Really.
Her appearance in the first picture was not attractive. Thus I would put her in the uglier group.

This is what I'm saying.
If you see the first pic, you'd put her with uglies.
If you see the last pic, you'd put her with cuties.
And you'd end up with having the same chick in both groups.
Which says a lot about your so called "universal beauty standards".

What was your favorite clubs / bars to go to?

I got a few ONS' at Foxy in Seomyeon. Elune in Haeundae was pretty good for getting numbers and setting up dates. I think Thursday Parties are always good because the Korean crowd tends to be less xenophobic and chances are the girls speak some English.

I'd hit up Ghetto once in a while with a couple of my black friends but never had much success there-- too loud and crowded. Rather hard to isolate.

I had the most success in Seomyeon. Not just at Foxy but at samgyeopsal joints too. That's where the conversational Korean comes in handy. You can squeeze your way into the large dinner parties and become the center of attention. If you can handle your soju you can get a lot of respect too. It quickly makes you seem less threatening in the eyes of K-girls.

Another couple things I might add: It's easy in Busan or Seoul to get caught up in the large party groups of foreigners. Sometimes you'll see like 25 foreigners walking into a bar or just drinking on the street. That's not going to get you any play. I tried to stay away from those groups and just went out with, at most 3 to 4 buddies, but usually just one or two. Plus, I tended to not get along with a lot of the foreigners in Korea for a variety of reasons but mainly just their lack of respect for cultural norms and generally embarrassing behavior. If I felt like having an easy night and settling for a Western chick I knew where to find them.

Also, since you have to make almost all the moves on Korean girls I would caution against just going out by yourself. It's not like other places where solitary girls will just walk up to you if you're standing at the bar alone. Koreans generally don't go out by themselves. If you're alone, they're going to think there is something wrong with you. Social validation is key in Korea.

Yeah, I should have mentioned that. Mexicans are a lot more racist. There's not the whole cane sugar history like the northern parts of SA so Mexico is a lot less diverse. They generally look down on blacks. I'm blond-haired and blue-eyed so I do quite well with the Fresas.

What are your favourite spots in Mexico?

Shit, totally off-topic but here goes haha.

Well, I'd say my favorite place is Puebla. I like the climate, food, architecture, history,and the fact that it's so close to some great hiking and wilderness opportunities thanks to the volcano, Popocatepetl. Puebla is one of those old seats of colonial money so there are plenty of hot Fresas walking around that are usually very friendly if you appear foreign and speak decent Spanish.

The neighboring twin towns of Cholula have a lot more laid-back feel and are very popular during the academic year with Puebla's large student population. I picked up a nice little brown-haired doll down on the bar strip in San Pedro Cholula that I stayed with for my entire week there. She has some smoking hot friends. I'll definitely be hanging out with that crew next time I'm in town.

Anyways, upper and middle class families from all over Mexico send their children to the universities in Puebla so the city definitely maintains a good nightlife. It should be noted that Puebla is one of the safer cities in Mexico. My girl told me it's because, in addition to the old money, a lot of the cartels send their kids there to study and so they try to keep the violence out of city. I don't know if her story has any merit but I just repeat it here as hear-say.

Other places I like are Guanajuato, Oaxaca City, Queretaro, and Guadalajara(the hotness of "Tapatias" has ready been discussed on this forum). Of course, DF is cool too if you like mega cities as I do. The women aren't as great in Oaxaca but everything else is.

If you speak decent Spanish I would recommend venturing out into the city of Cancun--as opposed to the hotel zone. Since Cancun is a new settlement there doesn't seem to be the kind of overarching emphasis on the traditional family unit that exists elsewhere in Mexico. Part of that can be attributed to the fact that Cancun is a "lifestyle" destination for a lot of young Mexicans. There are tons of single women from other parts of Mexico that go to Cancun to work in the tourist industry and end up making enough money to live in their own place and have disposable income. If you hit the few Mexican clubs in the center, well-dressed and not trying too hard you'll have a chance to game some of them. I picked up a fitness trainer that worked at one of the upscale resorts at one of those clubs (don't remember the name of the place though)

It's a shame this thread hasn't had an update since 2011.
This city is WAY more pleasant than Seoul.
People are a bit friendlier and the city is more relaxed.

From what I hear the night life gets a bit rowdy and ratchet. But these reports are coming from my military buddies who've been there while on assignment. When they report "rowdy" they maybe the ones causing the scene.

OP's thread is from 2011 too. Probably since the last year plastic surgery has become more common in South KOrea and fashion has improved too.

Also it's a hyperbole to say Latin American women are better. Except for some mixed race girls in Colombia and Brazil we're talking about a continent that mostly has Amerindian fatties (such as Mexico and Peru). I'ld rather take most East Asian women over pred. Amerindian women (because the latter are usually fat and dumb).

I did a lot of drinking and socializing in Gangnam where male tourists don't really go (they pretty much stick to Hongdae and Itaewon). This was especially true outside of July and August.

Literally saw scores of women past out drunk sleeping on the sidewalk a lot. Every place was rather packed.

But the bad thing about South Korea's nightlife is it can be super cliquey. Like people never do anything by themselves in South Korea. Even eating meals alone is considered taboo (even if it's at home!).

So in Korea's case I don't think women in the nightlife can be easily picked up because of the cliques. It's better to online date, social circle game or to day game women you see walking alone during daylight hours.
