Discrimination against 'foreigners' flows in Seoul |
2014-05-08 |
On a Thursday night in Itaewon, Narain finished up his drinks at a local bar and asked the bartender if there were any good nightclubs around the neighborhood. The bartender suggested one a few minutes away, and Narain made his way there. But when he arrived, his night out was cut short. "The bouncer said to me, 'I'm sorry, I don't think you meet our dress code,'?" Narain said. |

#5 Depends on who defines reunification. Given their current exaltation of 'historical' claims, those might be Chinese (see-Tang). |

#4 Just think what fun they'll have after reunification, when the North Koreans refuse entry to the South Korean 'mongrels'. |

#2 Not to be confused with Korean 'clubs' around US military bases with signs posted from a "Korean tourist organization" that said Koreans (customers) weren't allowed. |

#1 Gangnam style is racism I guess. Not sure I care. Groups should be allowed to hang with each other if they want to lose the business of others that is their choice. Also it helps get the temperature of a place. If enough stop service foreigners maybe they defend themselves next time the North gets crazy. |
