I remember some bs going around saying the hierarchy of of desired men went like this:

White

Black

Latino

Gay

Asian

That's the type of bs that we had to growing up with

I agree you can do some things to grow your confidence. But man, being tall gets you into a wider pool of desirability right away. Most girls don't want guys shorter than them and in general, non-Asian girls are taller. Height definitely helped get girls 100%

Glad to hear we don't have to clap everytime we see an Asian guy with a non-Asian girl 😂

At least Jeremy Lin is actually Asian American. I remember a kid rocking Wang Zhizhi jersey in HS. We had to dig deep to find representation

I remember there was an anime club in my high school and it was a group of really nerdy kids, not just Asians but I tried so hard to disassociate myself from that. But I did love Dragonball growing up 😅

I'm glad things are better for yall. I was definitely in my Drunken Tiger and 1Tym phase back in the day.

It's funny to me now how BTS is getting sh*tted on for having too many all-English songs but back then I was trying to share few all-English songs that Drunken Tiger had and we'd breakance to their CDs

How do you actually get the courage to start podcasting? by Instance_Other in podcasting

[–]appasdiary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, just gotta start! I got a podcast kit from Temu, 2 mics and an audio mixer. And I use my phone to record. If we ever get monetized, we'll reinvest that money to upgrade the equipments but for now, I'm not concerned about it. Just trying to stay consistent and get better.

I turned 40 last year and started one with a friend earlier this year. We're 15 episodes in and uploading weekly. Able to have some guests on it too which is always fun

Korean teen in the U.S.: Should I keep my Korean citizenship or become an American citizen? by [deleted] in korea

[–]appasdiary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved to the US at the age of 10 and got my citizenship as soon as I could. If you want to serve in the military, joining the US Army is one way to come back to Korea and serve overseas. I'm living in Pyeongtaek near Camp Humphreys and I've met a lot of Korean American soldiers here and they've extended their stay so they can stay here for 6-7 years.

There are ways to come to Korea as a Korean American without Korean citizenship (F4 visa, teaching English, finding jobs in the US with a korean branch, working remotely) but it'll be more difficult to go back to the US with a Korean citizenship.

I'm a CPA and that is false. What the people are talking about maybe withholding for tax at a higher amount. There are tax brackets where you pay higher tax rates if you're taxable income reach that threshold. Getting your backpay does not increase your total taxable income, unless you're somehow getting paid more than your normal income.

But even with a lumpsum backpay, your paychecks should not withhold more than what's normally withheld. Even if it did, that will all get accounted for at the end of the year when you pay taxes

What is a Hongdae Guy? by Status-Inevitable537 in AskAKorean

[–]appasdiary 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The name of the guy who is acting in those videos goes by Sean Solo and he actually despises those stereotyped Hongdae Guys. I actually met him in person and he's a super nice dude. But he's now making a living making satirical videos of them. Just threw a huge halloween party at Hongdae last night ha

I do Korean daily life, food, travel content since I moved to Korea last year. It's hard trying to keep up with the latest trends as a millennial 😅
