Wow. This is incredibly embarrassing, especially for someone who is a blasian westerner. WTF!? We gotta do better!The video below has been circulating on the Korean Internet this week of a black gentleman yelling at and threatening an elderly Korean couple. It's definitely going to be a viral hit by the end of the week, as it's making its rounds around the world as we speak...
Anyway, his violent behavior was the result of him misunderstanding the elderly man’s comment to him. The elderly man reportedly said “니가 여기 앉아” (a sign of consideration) but not knowing Korean, the man in question interpreted “니가” as the N-word which led to his violent outburst.
Apparently our culprit learned “개새끼야” but couldn’t be bothered to learn simple pronouns. Definitely North American, but if his hair is any indication he’s definitely not a soldier.
부모님은 참 자랑스러워 하시겠다.
The foreigner in question is 24 years old, an American, and an English teacher. The victim was 61. This went down around 11:10pm Saturday on the bus from Moran Station to Bundang. One of the bus passengers called 112 (Five-Oh), and the bus driver stopped the bus in front of a nearby police station, where the foreigner was arrested.
Whoever this dude is, needs to man up and come forward and APOLOGIZE for this unacceptable tirade.
