my concern is about my best friend. actually, she has a korean boyfriend and she loves him so much. she's willing to give everything for him... she's dreaming of him to be her ideal husband and he's expecting for these things.. but the proble is i have no trust with koreans. i am an ESL teacher and i know them so well... most of them just play with girls. what is he is also one of them. i dont want my friend to feel the agony of falling in love. when she gets hurt, it could be twice my feeling. the sad thing is, i was the one who introduced him to her.

Before I tell my view about this, I will share my story. I had a Korean boyfriend. He was so sweet and every moment feels like we are going to be together for the rest of our lives. Time came that he has to move in to a new place a bit far from my house but we had an agreement that we will continue with our relationship. Three weeks of no total communication came, and I was already worried. We agreed to meet up and he told me that he does not love me anymore. We tried to work it out but he is doing things that will make me break up with him (not really nasty things but things like he would not answer my messages and would not log in the messenger on our schedule).
Having a Korean boyfriend is so easy but it is also easy to lose him. They easily fall in love and also quickly fall out of love. Give your best friend a chance to love him and be his girlfriend as this will be a different case with what happened to me but you should warn your best friend about Korean guys and the awful customs they have (like the fixed marriage thingy).
Oh, and I am also an ESL teacher for Koreans so I know that most Korean guys are flirts too... ;)

Well i have experience getting into a relationship with a korean guy. I think not all of them loves to play around. The only problems we have is that his parents is against our relationship. They wanted him to marry a korean which end our relationship. I decided to end things up and he agree with it too. We both feel theres no point of continuing a relationship that we both know wouldnt last long knowing that he loves his parents so much too. I think it is unfair for the guy to be judge base on his race. Not all koreans have bad reputation so give them a chance to be happy. It is your friends choice to stay with him. At least if ever she made a mistake she wouldnt blame anybody but herself. Relationship is a gamble, you will never knew what will happen at the end. So let her be happy with the choice she makes in her life.
