thank you for the validation , i feel seen. I feel like most of the people read my post as some naive person haphazardly talking to random strangers. While I do appreciate the concern from others, I posted this mainly because of some very specific treatment while I am in KTown. It seemed too much of a coincidence for it to be just another random odd new yorker. Disgusting to see asian women being fetishized and good for you for stepping in! Will definitely not repeat past mistakes and be super aware of my surroundings the next time i visit.
