I lived in Tokyo for one year but didn't really get stared at but my "white" friends would always get stared, pointed at by kids, and nobody would sit next to them on trains if it's not crowded! My friend and I are going to Seoul in December for vacation, for 6 days land but I bet we're going to have fun running around with minimal Korean and being stared at hahaha. We both went to the beach recently so yes, we now have "dark" skin compared to Koreans. They seem to be obsessed with fair skin and that bothers me. (Well it's no different from the whitening boom here in the Philippines but it's like, on a different level.) I'm also meeting my boyfriend's mom - who's Korean - so I'm a bit nervous but I think I'm in for a funny situation.

Like when you are caught staring at someone, your automatic reaction is to look away. But sometimes we just can't help it when we see someone dressing a little bit over when in the mall. haha. Ate Betchay, you know Hwang Bo, diba? She's often teased for her dark skin (it's "dark" for a korean). And also because "she doesn't look korean" they say she looked like south east asian. hahaha.
