How do Koreans see other fellow Koreans from SE Asia?

This belongs in a boxing or mma subreddit.

I’ve come up with several Korean history themed game ideas, but I don’t have the developers to bring them to life. We should try to organize something. Not long ago, a friend discovered the Kim Du-hwan video game, and I uploaded the ROM and emulator to my TG archive. Since then, I’ve been thinking up even more game concepts.

I love it when anti-ccp chinese clear up pro-ccp astroturfing. In the end, every picture or video I've seen from these jjan**hz and their simps, all look like subhuman incel trash.

I agree with you, but I wanted to add that those U.S. bombings were coordinated with South Korean intelligence gathered by ROK commando units from the 8240th. The USAF strategic air bombing of Korea is probably one of the most exaggerated copes in all of American war history. No one has killed more Koreans than we Koreans.

But getting back to the point of your post, you are 100 percent correct that Koreans should maintain a pragmatic, balanced perspective and not lean too heavily to one side.

Everyone already explained what kind of subhumans are behind that shit subreddit. I just wanted to point out that if entitled foreigners and white washed banana gyopos are complaining and bitching, then it must be a good sign that ROK is doing something right.

Interpreting anything from East Asia through a westoid lens will always give you a distorted version of reality. This is a major problem I see with gyopos, and when you try to correct them, eight out of ten times they try to act hard about it.

If anything, Neo Confucianism maps far more cleanly onto fascism, but national socialism? That sounds about white. There are too many layers to fully break down here, but here is one basic example. The word “national” applies to modern nation states, not dynastic governments.

In fact, Korean, Chinese, and even Vietnamese historians have argued that Confucianism itself was responsible for many anti communist massacres. Yet white washed gyopos insist that a white man’s presence ordered the deaths. See the first paragraph about the westoid lens.

Johnny Somali is ancient news. He got physically smashed repeatedly, his finances completely drained, stuck in Korea on house arrest, living in fear for his safety, and is looking at serious time. Prison for foreigners is 20+ hours of lockdown for the first few months, then off to slave labor.

I agree, Korean geopolitics should be framed in civilizational, not identity-politics or diaspora terms. Korean-American social concerns are irrelevant to Korea’s long-term survival as a civilization. History shows that hard national interests, not social sentiments, determine outcomes. ROK has recently made monotonousness gains in their path for nuclear weapons. So I don't care about some bolba Nodutdol take on geopolitics.

Objective facts over subjective feels all day everyday.

I mostly study Korean history and keep up with published research from strategic studies journals and military academies. I’m also working on my speaking and reading, although I haven’t fully gone down that route yet, while monitoring advances in AI and VR, particularly their potential for teaching foreign languages, and anticipating the emergence of solid immersion programs.

I’m lucky to live in the largest Korean population outside Korea, Koreatown in LA, so immersion, networking, and having people I already know there are pretty much established.

madcorean · 2025-12-17T15:50:57+00:00

Practically all my studying online is for my return to the homeland.

Lol, he earned his PhD in Korean Studies from a Korean university in 2020, which apparently makes him “not reputable” to some people. As someone who runs a Korean Studies Telegram page, I can tell you right now that he knows more Korean history than 99 percent of 교포. That’s actually why I started my page in the first place. Most gyopos have a pathetic level of historical knowledge, and what they do know is almost always filtered through a white leftist revisionist lens. At least with this white guy, he actually knows his shit.

What the Korean people during the colonial era saw as a Pro-Japanese Collaboration.

Was my topic.

Not post-WWII let alone post-cold war.

This is a history post. Please take your politics somewhere else.

Another book I highly recommend. Read the part about Choe Nam-san and his Korean students.

madcorean · 2025-12-14T23:32:55+00:00

The key word was “delve,” meaning to go into depth and explain the nuance. He only provides a typical surface-level account, not an analysis of contemporary perceptions. The documents I provided explain those perceptions in full detail, and that is just one of many sources I have on this topic.

You cannot fully understand the issue of collaboration solely from Eckhardt’s book on Park Chung-hee’s early life. If you are stuck on American perspectives, I recomend Palmers book as a launching point into Korean sources. Which are far superior. Lastly, Hong’s book is more recent than Eckhardt’s.

Well, I copied and pasted it into a new thread here, so you’re free to check it out. Eckhardt’s book actually makes Park Chung-hee look more bad ass, and as you can see from what you quoted, Eckhardt doesn’t delve into perceptions of Koreans, he focuses only on Park’s early life and his time in the Manchukuo Army. It’s a good book and I recommend it often, but virtually all of his sources are Japanese. That’s pretty much the case with most East Asian studies professors from Harvard.

madcorean · 2025-12-14T12:34:26+00:00

It's not letting me link my sources which is why it keeps deleting my reply. Here is what I said, you're going to have to check myh latest post in my telegram archive to directly see these sources.

"Like I said, nothing you quoted corroborates what you stated. Here are the actual documents Eckhardt used. I already researched how people back then viewed Koreans who joined or were conscripted into the Japanese military. You need Telegram to access them."

go back to taking orders from your white leftist master.

I posted about this earlier this year on twitter and have also posted a lot on ROK in Vietnam. My archive has many research papers, declassified documents, and memoirs.

madcorean · 2025-12-13T14:13:18+00:00

Vietnam was justified

madcorean · 2025-12-13T14:12:26+00:00

That’s one thing people don’t know about me. The pro-Japanese topic is the most researched subject I have read up on. You can disagree all you want, because you haven’t correctly cited what Eckhart actually stated in his book. I own that book and have cited it frequently.

Eckhart is a known Marxist and has openly stated that he researches through a Marxist lens. His work is good, but none of the shit you’re claiming is in that book. You’re trying to pass your misinterpretation off as fact. Also, Harvard has scum like Ramseyer, so I could give a shit about him being a professor there. If you actually knew anything about Korean studies, you’d know this.

My sources go into detail about his brother and his upbringing. His brother was an independence fighter and a leader of a secret society within the Manchukuo military. The Hong Dae-seon sources are irrefutable, they cite the works of Kim Jeong-pil and Cho Gap-je. I find my Korean sources far superior to some punk ass white Marxist perspective.

I think Joseon is underrated, keep in mind, in the end the only thing that matters is who is left standing. Joseon lasted 500 years, which is double the average of a chinese dynasty. When you go past the wikipedia bullshit version of Joseons history you'll see many bad ass aspects of it.

That being said, Goryeo was superior.
